  • Hey Gang! First off we want to say THANK YOU for all of your support in our merch store. Ya'll absolutely cleaned us out of all of our shirts and stickers and we had to get more of each made and they're on their way! We weren't expecting that so thank you again.
    In today's video we're going through the entire process of installing this modern style stainless hood for a range/oven. These things are harder than they look! And without much help from the instructions, a lot of the times your left with just your own experience (or lack of) to help you through the process. The heat definitely contributes to that level of difficulty as well! We hope you enjoy this video and thanks for watching Gang, we'll see ya in the next one!

Learning a lifetime skill and passing it down to my children and grandchildren is the most important thing to me. I have so much respect and admiration for you and your son.

    Looks identical to an Extreme Air that we put in some years ago. The Extreme Air is a three speed but the audible difference between the speeds is negligible, CFM on high is 900.

    I'm a carpenter/contractor from Louisiana as well. I like your work. Especially that it's with your son. I have a small critique and that's that Hardie siding isn't supposed to be caulked. Wood? Yes, but Hardie need to breathe or it voids the warranty. It definitely looks better cauld but by Hardie not being able to breathe it will trap unwanted moisture and cause decay and rot. Otherwise, I've agreed with pretty much everything you guys do and the way you do it. Stay blessed!

    Outstanding work guys, as always! I'm sure you know this, but I've got to mention it...
    The high exhaust air flow is great for the kitchen, but bad for the house as a whole. The exhausted air has to be replaced, and without an ERV or make up air system, it's gonna be sucked it from the outside via holes in the building envelope. If you're lucky, pollen and other airborne contaminates will be filtered by the attic/wall insulation ☹️.

    • @davidbinkowski4825
      @davidbinkowski4825 3 года назад +1

      I also noticed they did not put a damper by the wall where it exits the house. I thought best practice was a damper down by the fan, and a second one where the wall is as its leaving the house (some distance behind that flap)... Aside from that, elegant and very thoughtful install. The kind we all love to see!. Its great that he thought to tuck it under the eves like that... I have a 650 max CFM hood with 8 inch exhaust, and for my makeup air I just tell my girlfriend to be sure to open one of the kitchen windows over the sink or open the back sliding door (both are screened obviously) to let make up air into the house. Since the house was :"re-done" its a lot tighter envelope now - with insulation and everything ! When it was originally built in 1925 it had no insulation really except in a piece of the unfinished attic where the home-owner could reach and the addition on the back of the home. The majority of it was uninsulated. Now it has modern windows and insulation so its tight as a drum. I think as long as you're actively aware of how systems in your house work you don't need the ducting for make-up air really. You do just need to open a screened door or a screened window, right?

    Nice work gentleman! Props to you for switching to rigid duct. In my experience, venting through the roof has been easier and a straighter shot. Asphalt roofing is flexible and easy to repair. Roof snips or a hook blade, some roofing nails and rubberized roofing cement is all you would need.

    Last apartment I did I used routered base trim looked way better then quarter and about the same price. I think quarter kills a nice floor especially when its white on wood.

      I hate 1/4 round! I pulled up all the base board before I installed my LVP flooring in the kitchen, foyer, powder room and laundry. New base board and wham-O! Perfect!

    If you run the vent fan while preparing your duct work in the attic, you'll get a nice blast of cool air.

    What is the CFM of that air hood? In most states you will need to add Make-up air not only for safety, but also for performance reasons--even if it isn't code! If air cannot displace the air that is being blown out, the range hood becomes less efficient. Would like to see you talk about this since many people fail to realize this and just go about replacing the range hood that has the biggest numbers and call it a day. I did this same exact thing with my kitchen, but I also added motorized dampener to my return air system and hooked a switch up to my range hood which took another half day of work in the attic. As soon as the range hood comes on, it tells my air handler to operate and the air damper to open up, bringing outside air in. It is code in my area for safety reasons, but again it also makes sure you are receiving maximum performance.

      Anything over 400 cfm requires make up air iirc. This house isn’t tight enough to worry about it IMO. Ceiling penetrations, old windows/doors etc. I personally think make up air is very important especially in newer tighter homes. Some great products out there to accomplish that

      @@StudPack - so if there is a backdraft through a chimney or vent, you think that is acceptable? I don’t. When you design a makeup air solution into the project from the outset, you can be certain that fresh air is brought in via the path that was in the design, rather than risking the makeup air coming through a potentially hazardous path.
      As this project stands, neither of us is certain that the makeup air is coming from a source that is definitely safe. Being safe is a must IMO.

    I just picked up the same crimp pliers. I used mine to crimp a new down spout I installed today. The sheet metal is a bit thin so it barely crimps it. But just go all the way around the down spout an it slides together nice and tight.

    I believe that venting out the soffit is not to code due to the min distance required. Maybe should have gone directly out the roof. High potential for moisture damage due to condensate. A slight offset to the ducting would've been less cfm reduction than a 90 too.

    • @charlesrodriguez7984
      @charlesrodriguez7984 Год назад

      100% agree. A broan 8 inch roof vent would be a better option for venting the range hood fan outside.

    Paul, what about putting the crown molding around the top of the hood and wall to finish it ? Love the videos !

    • @rufusjohnson3800
      @rufusjohnson3800 Год назад

      You could. Also, many hood manufacturers make a three-sided crown molding, and other molding types, for their models. 4-sided for island hoods.

    17:47 putting that chimney on I feel your pain. Even harder if you have a chase above your cabinets and need to trim the chimney so you can telescope the vent hood in far enough to mount the hood with everything installed. Lots of cutting and filing.
