Just found you fellas on YT, and instantly joined this party. I was raised by family that couldve taught me everything they knew about carpentry and chose not to. 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. You just became one of my mentors as I continue to learn and grow in construction here in Florida. Thanks yall
You forgot the most important thing, spray foam or caulk around duct going thru drywall in ceiling to stop air leakage ( stack effect ). Great video, good stuff.
I always tape ALL SEAMS including every seam of all elbows and straight run just me building “a tank” in my own way because I hate doing things twice. I would also buy the flapper with mesh already installed so no critter surprises Great vid you guys rock! Very informative and straight to the point! Thank you!
You guys have done a a ridiculously great job on this house. I was just curious if you are going to stitch together a before and after video once this project is done? Keep up the great work!!
In the U.K. if we don’t use a plug, we use a specific double pole switch (fan isolator switch) or a fused connection for extractors. Love the metal duct, a lot of people use the flexible duct which doesn’t have nearly as good flow. Your videos are real, daily struggles all traders face. Love it!
I've watched every Stud Pack videos TWICE! Wish you could post two a week, but I understand that the work has to get done too...Great job Fellas. You're the best I've seen.
I really like that you used the rigid piping, so many times people use the flexable stuff that falls down over time. Always vent this outside and if you're in a cold climate, insulate it too! I am an old retired guy. Just love your channel and the Father and Son working together, not many of those relationships around these days. God Bless!
I bought a similar one off Amazon. HisoHu Wall Mount Range Hood, 36 Inch 780 CFM Love it. Has buttons remote and also touch less wave. You just wave your hand side to side in front and it comes on. You can wave it higher and lower and yes it moves a ton of air. Flow is unbelievable yet super quiet.
So helpful! I have an old hole in the ceiling from a previous hood vent that is offset a couple inches from the center of my new vent’s exhaust outlet. Do I need to use two flexible 90’s to achieve that several inch offset or is there an easier way? I might not have enough vertical space for two flexible 90s.
Quick tip if you guys don’t already know about taking the wrapping off the sheet metal. If you can set them in the sun (outside) to warm up the wrap. They come off easier and they are usually directional. Look for an arrow if possible. Good stuff you guys are doing. Keep it up.
I put a screw through the like button. That cracked the computer monitor, so I caulked it. Great job you all made it look easy, however its truly complex. great professional work!
This is a good point to consider whenever adding exhaust fans. If the makeup air is being pulled in down through a water heater or furnace exhaust vent hood, it can fill the house with carbon monoxide and cause flame rollout when those devices ignite their burners. If it's pulling air down through a chimney, same problem plus backing up of the wood fire smoke, since many houses run furnace/boiler and water heater exhausts out through a chimney.
All good points. Yes we considered it. This house is 40 years old. Not tight like many modern homes. Original windows doors etc. plenty of places for makeup air to enter the building envelope. Not the best scenario but it’s the reality here.
@@StudPack - the problem here is that you don’t know with 100% certainty where the makeup air is getting sourced from. It could be coming in via a chimney backdraft. Both of us are guessing at that, and that should not be left to a guess. A designed in makeup air source would take the uncertainty away.
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. Even with 900 CFM we maxed out the height off the cook top so our tall friends wouldn't his their heads on the arched glass. Love the torches and pitch forks comment.
I also am getting addicted to your content. The foundation of that garage was insane. This is more up my alley. I need a high flow bathroom fan to take out Houston humidity. Keep making the videos and I will keep watching.
Best video out of dozens I have seen. Been working on this for a few weeks since I had to put down a lot of attic flooring just to reach this area. Thanks for your guidance.
I learn something with every video. Lovin' it! Great way to remind viewers to select the like and subscribe options. That should be your trade mark with EVERY video. Love you guys! Paul was made to be in front of the camera. All your videos are excellent!
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!
Hex drive! Of *course* we appreciate All the grunting and straining! As an amateur, it makes *me* feel better that even the Pros don't make it look so simple... Like those home improvement shows where they're standing in the basement sweating clean copper... I want the 18" crawlspace with the cobwebs and the leaky, corroded pipe!
People think it’s a piece of cake to install one. It isn’t. I did one in my old house and in the second house we bought; I hired out to do it. I was still traumatized from the first install, lol. Our guy did a fantastic job. It’s made a world of difference
New video tomorrow I hope!?!? Literally obsessed with your content. You guys do fantastic clean work, I learn a million things each video. Louisiana is lucky to have you
Not tomorrow Panda! Unfortunately with how materials are right now, we have to wait an extended time for things we need to make progress and film! We’re brainstorming ways to remedy the content drought 💪🏼
greetings mr. paul and jordan; taping the joints is necessary but why not wrap the swivel joints as well? you had wonderful air flow besides and the swivel joints will eventually seal themselves from the greasy air but i always seal all escapes. btw, yall are the best of all the utubes i watch.............g
How do you guys do it when there no plywood behind the sheetrock and there's only studs from an older home?? How do you guys install a hood vent? Do you use battens strips?
Another great episode! If you had 2 pieces of backsplash left you could cut them for each corner of the hood. Right next to the glass. It would give it a nice finished look under the hood.. but I’m sure cutting those glass tiles will be difficult..
I'm back ... watching it again. Cutting the duct ... De Walt has a cool metal shear attachment for their torque/impact driver. Worked great when I installed my hood fan. Suggestion: DeWalt makes a angle attachment for the torque/impact driver, works great for driving screws in tight spaces. Trust me (I'm with the gubermint) I got it in some very tight spaces. LoL!!
I tell ya....u guys do a great job. The cleanliness of each step is what I appreciate, always protected and safer. But I will say this, you can tell you have been at it years, invest in a lot more cordless tools. So much easier on ya. A grinder is something I never knew how much I use til it was cordless. And the new milwaukee brad and framing nailer are just down right amazing!
Sooo I need to add a hood vent (likely an island version) and have been watching videos... it seems we now have to have a make up air system? What say ye about that?
Hi guys I have a question that is not related to this video, but I'm sure you have the answer. I made a small kitchen in part of the house where walls have those decorative panels simulating wood and I don't know if I can stick my backsplash on that I'm going to use heavy duty liquid nail but I don't know if it's better to put first a 1/4 panel and then glue my tile but what you recommend
You crack me up on how ya'll remind us to hit the like button. Half the time I rewind and listen to it again for an extra giggle. LOL! Oh, I learned so much but I will probably not put in a new exhaust hood but I sure might make a new exhaust for bathroom fans or my dryer.
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 ☹️.
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?
I'm in the middle of doing a similar job at home thru-wall, just waiting for the backsplash guys. I put an outlet in behind the ductwork above the hood. What do you think about that exhaust port? I bought it but replaced it with one that has bird/critter screen and doesn't detract as much from the CFM. Also, I didn't think it closed completely when I tested it.
Great job. I'm about to take on this project and you all have provided some great insight. My biggest concern is how to keep the birds out of the 6 inch duct.
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.
Great choice not using flex. It restricts air. I was totally thinking of the reduction of CFM's with the bends but looks like there's is still good air flow. I'm working on my exhaust hood for my glass Blowing studio after moving back to Central Texas from Washington State. I'm working with 10 inch ducting and about 1200 CFM's. Might have to do a long run going out the gable vent. Not trying to make a hole through the brick. What do y'all think about the difficulty of making a bent through the dude of my garage which has brick? The Army finally got me back to the great State of Texas. ❤ And only 3 years til retirement.
Hey Shanechis! We have thought about it, we think it’s a great idea and we have future plans to incorporate it into our channel. Maybe an announcement at 100k? 👀
The unit is actually not sitting on the tile but rather the metal trim. I don’t think vibration would be an issue anyway. This fan runs smooth as silk 💪
When I want to remove the clear cover plastic I put the stuff out in the sun first to let it warm up the metal. It usually softens the clear plastic and it peels off easily.
We put exhaust fans on the microwave circuit hence the 12/2 👍. Thinking is if someone ever installs a microwave hood combo over the range there is already a 20amp circuit there.
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.
"Blow out your torches and put away your pitch forks"...I love it.
Yeah, but what about the tar and feathers? I've still got those. Nobody is safe.
They sure know how to deal with with the internet mob.
love to see the show u watched.
plz have a link for it
Just found you fellas on YT, and instantly joined this party. I was raised by family that couldve taught me everything they knew about carpentry and chose not to. 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. You just became one of my mentors as I continue to learn and grow in construction here in Florida. Thanks yall
Welcome to the pack Ryan 👊👍
This is one of my favorite channels to watch. Thank you for all the time and effort you commit to making such great videos.
Much appreciated 💪👊
You forgot the most important thing, spray foam or caulk around duct going thru drywall in ceiling to stop air leakage ( stack effect ). Great video, good stuff.
I always tape ALL SEAMS including every seam of all elbows and straight run just me building “a tank” in my own way because I hate doing things twice. I would also buy the flapper with mesh already installed so no critter surprises Great vid you guys rock! Very informative and straight to the point! Thank you!
You guys have done a a ridiculously great job on this house. I was just curious if you are going to stitch together a before and after video once this project is done? Keep up the great work!!
I love that you edit *in* the annoyances, failures and recoveries. Those are the most educational parts. And enjoyable too (sorry about that).
Yup. Smooth seas don't make good sailors. Let us see the travails so we know how to deal with 'em too!
Good ole Paul is a beast. I miss having an old school carpenter to learn from.
Thx Ben 💪👊👍
In the U.K. if we don’t use a plug, we use a specific double pole switch (fan isolator switch) or a fused connection for extractors. Love the metal duct, a lot of people use the flexible duct which doesn’t have nearly as good flow.

Those manufacturer instructions are pretty good at absorbing the condensation from my beer ;)
lol
I really applaud you guys, you dont take any shortcuts it rare to find people like that now a days hats off.
OMG! That was such a beautiful installation.
I bought a similar one off Amazon.
HisoHu Wall Mount Range Hood, 36 Inch 780 CFM
Love it. Has buttons remote and also touch less wave. You just wave your hand side to side in front and it comes on. You can wave it higher and lower and yes it moves a ton of air. Flow is unbelievable yet super quiet.
You guys are amazing! I’ll never do this kind of work, but love watching true professionals do it properly. Thanks.
You guys set such a great example every video. Thank you for sharing your time and Craft!

Pulling that much air out of the house, have you compensated in any way for where the replacement air comes from?
This is a good point to consider whenever adding exhaust fans. If the makeup air is being pulled in down through a water heater or furnace exhaust vent hood, it can fill the house with carbon monoxide and cause flame rollout when those devices ignite their burners. If it's pulling air down through a chimney, same problem plus backing up of the wood fire smoke, since many houses run furnace/boiler and water heater exhausts out through a chimney.

As a tall guy I appreciate you thinking about us.
Loving the sound effects on the fist bumps. Obviously time and care are always taken in the editing room. Keep it up guys!
Wow. You guys are pushing 100k! Congrats. Kudos for coming thru the side wall and not taking the easy way with that flex sh*t. Thanks for the upload.
I also am getting addicted to your content. The foundation of that garage was insane. This is more up my alley. I need a high flow bathroom fan to take out Houston humidity. Keep making the videos and I will keep watching.

"Now that we defeated Venom" made me blow coffee out my nose
Sorry about that Scott 😂
Lol....little bit of carnage
The Kraft paper trick on the ducting is brilliant. Thank you.
You’re welcome 👍👊
You could use anything with a straight edge that is flexible, like a tape measure or that blue painters tape.
Love you guys! The clear plastic tray hangs from the bottom of the blower to catch grease drippings
Curious...is the romex heat rated? Curious if the exhaust heat would get too much for the wire? Probably not enough unless a commercial kitchen
Great install. The only thing missing is a critter guard on the vent outside to keep squirrels from dropping nuts into the vent ;)
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?

Watching you thinking it through and basically doing a "practice putt" before doing a complicated thing? That's an engineer's joy.

Mmmm, cake.
It looks great. My comment would be the corners of the glass arch look like head knockers.
From one contractor to another, you guys are amazing!!!!! LOVE your work and your videos! 👍
Wow! Stud Pack, great job! I am thoroughly impressed. I never realized how much went Into installing a hood vent system. You guys slayed it, no cap!
When construction becomes almost magic.
Great show!

Dude, you and Jordan are the best. I enjoy watching your videos
Nice! How many CFM are you pushing through that thing? Did you need make up air for it?
greetings mr. paul and jordan; taping the joints is necessary but why not wrap the swivel joints as well? you had wonderful air flow besides and the swivel joints will eventually seal themselves from the greasy air but i always seal all escapes. btw, yall are the best of all the utubes i watch.............g
Great video. The one thing I don't understand, why did you remove one piece of siding at 19:31?
Great video I really enjoyed it as always thanks for taking us along! Appreciate you all!
We appreciate you 👊thx

you guy are real , you know how to fix any little screw up , and we all screw stuff up. it always looks great when your finished too.
How much CFM is the range hood on the highest setting?
420
Gotta respect! You out there sweating in an attic and on the roof and you still find time to give a shout out to the other worker peeps! love ya guys!
Thx 👍👊
Hi guys I have a question that is not related to this video, but I'm sure you have the answer. I made a small kitchen in part of the house where walls have those decorative panels simulating wood and I don't know if I can stick my backsplash on that I'm going to use heavy duty liquid nail but I don't know if it's better to put first a 1/4 panel and then glue my tile but what you recommend

You crack me up on how ya'll remind us to hit the like button. Half the time I rewind and listen to it again for an extra giggle. LOL! Oh, I learned so much but I will probably not put in a new exhaust hood but I sure might make a new exhaust for bathroom fans or my dryer.
did you just void the warranty by putting the extra screws
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 ☹️.
So when you install your vent hood, you can run it at less than max speed. 😇
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...

What's your opinion on running Ethernet for hardwired Internet?
Frickin' awesome! Not just the craftsmanship but enjoying each challenge as a team. Very inspiring!
Thx Joel 💪👊
What did you do for replacement air in the house?

i love looking at your video ,im a small home renovator in Ontario ,Canada and you are doing everything the right way Gang lol
Paul I have to agree the stainless wrap can be a horrible enemy!
Great video gentlemen
Thx Jason 👊👍
I was ordering some rare earth magnets and noticed multiple different thicknesses. Do you need the thicker ones to find drywall screws?
I stack 3 or 4 magnets together. The 1/8” thick ones 👍
Lol he said send it .
This old man is a youngster at heart
😂my kids keep me that way 👊
Might be a good idea to wrap / sleeve your vent pipe with insulation if in a cold winter zone.
Yup, moisture will condense inside the duct then run back at the interior when shut off.
Always full of knowledge for DIYers like me. God bless yall
Hello Paul & Jordan, Have you considered doing a Q&A episode? All the best from Melbourne, Australia
Hey Shanechis! We have thought about it, we think it’s a great idea and we have future plans to incorporate it into our channel. Maybe an announcement at 100k? 👀
THE STUD PACK IS AMAZING
A remodeler/installer that can read and follow manufacturer instructions....mind blown!!!
I may not ever install a range vent. Thanks to both of you I can ask intelligent questions of the installer. Great video.
Awesome work guys. Love the green and red tape..nice video effects!
Thx John 👍
Love the videos!! I don’t understand how there’s 3 thumbs down with this content??
Thx 👍👊💪
How many cfm was the fan? Didn't catch it if you said it.
I love that removing the plastic coating is the most time consuming & annoying thing!! So true!
not sure if it was asked, what about fan vibration and backsplash? would it damage it overtime?
The unit is actually not sitting on the tile but rather the metal trim. I don’t think vibration would be an issue anyway. This fan runs smooth as silk 💪
When I want to remove the clear cover plastic I put the stuff out in the sun first to let it warm up the metal. It usually softens the clear plastic and it peels off easily.
Put shiny ss in the august Louisiana sun? I’d probably get third degree burns 🥵😂. Ha okay I’ll try it next time 👍
Great content from Speed Pack as usual!
Nice Job! I love hour problem solving and attention to all the details.
How do you do the job when there’s no attic access because there’s a bedroom above?
Can confirm, removing the wrap on stainless sheet metal is the worst. Great video as always.
Thank you James 👊
Why didn’t you want to remove that wrap? Once it gets hot will it not cause plastic smell later on with a hot kitchen?
We were having some fun based on how difficult it is to remove that stuff sometimes 👍
Does the duct need to be insulated?
You tube recommends this to me when I'm planning on installing this same Vent next week. Perfect timing!
Good luck Christian!
Hi, Very nice work. Thanks for the showing the details. I noticed you used 12/2 for the hard wire. Was this required for that fan?
We put exhaust fans on the microwave circuit hence the 12/2 👍. Thinking is if someone ever installs a microwave hood combo over the range there is already a 20amp circuit there.
Gotta match the circuit breakers load ability- I get it.
Great work guys.
Do the cabinet doors knock against the hood glass when you try open them fully?
The open to about 100 degrees 👍
While I'm thinking about it, please thank these homeowners for allowing us into their home to view the incredible transformation. We're grateful! 😊
I will thx Joshua 👍
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.
100% agree. A broan 8 inch roof vent would be a better option for venting the range hood fan outside.
Great Job and attention to detail.
I did one of these above an island and it was a beast! Nice to see it wasn’t just me. Thanks for this episode.
Nice job guys. I pave roads in Hawaii working in a hot environment. I give props to anybody that works in attics. Hot and in tight places is no joke.
Just found the channel. Love the content!!! Keep up the amazing work y'all!!!
