As a handyman, every time I have an install of an appliance that I've never done before, I'm grateful to have Uncle Jeff to show me how to do it!

[@TheUuhhh]

How much would you charge to install this @Jake-hp5hq

The best part of this fellow teaching you is that he makes no presumptions about your skill set and doesn't treat you like an idiot. Big big fan of that.

[@joeredhawk]

Jeff for siding penetrations for a cleaner look, use an exterior mounting block that matches your siding color, it eliminates the risk of leaks where you were shown caulking also stops relying on caulk to stop water intrusion, it mimics the blocks that they use on lap siding (without scribing) your siding butts up against it for a clean install. If I remember correctly, Electrical code requires all boxes to be secured.

[@diyer8787]

Also, what about the seal to the air barrier?

[@chriskelvin248]

Or a 2-piece wall vent with an integral J channel backer. I think from Builder’s Edge on Amazon? 4 years later, Jeff makes a video showing how to easily unzip vinyl siding too in order to repair damaged pieces, install penetrations neatly, inspections, etc.

[@DustinDayDustinDay]

I just purchased a zline hood vent and man their install instructions SUCK. I am glad that you made this video. It will make my installation much easier.

[@markcameron318]

Lol! No PPE, hammering a wall anchor with a battery, shimmying a ladder while still on it...this is pure DIY reality and actually makes a rookie DIY feel comfortable in their own (limited) abilities in taking this on. Excellent!

[@muzaaaaak]

Plastic flexi vent ducting. Don’t see how that’s code for grease here in USA. All installs I see are sheetmetal ducts and elbows. Maybe Canadia is more lenient because their houses don’t burn.

[@MrWaterbugdesign]

@@muzaaaaak I think the duct was provided by the manufacturer Zline which is USA made so it must have pass UL. Not all plastics are the same. Plus the temperature of air 36" above a stove top is not very hot, under 100F I assume. If you have flames shooting 36" high you've got bigger problems than the duct.

[@tac4bravo]

@@muzaaaaak yeah that’s the duct that’s provided. All these units seem to come with that. When I install mine I will be using metal ducting with elbows, because that smoother airflow also increases the airflow. People have said so in reviews.

[@muzaaaaak]

@@MrWaterbugdesign the issue is if you have latent grease on your hood and it catches fire, plastic ducting won’t stop a fire from spreading like 26g metal will. I bought and installed a 36” Zline this summer here in the USA and it didn’t come with plastic flexi duct. I used all metal ducting and mastic tape to seal air leaks. Best hood I’ve ever owned. It really sucks, in a great way.

[@BananaChipzzz]

@@muzaaaaak Not to mention it didn't fit correctly, so rather than fix it, he just sealed the area with expanding foam LOL

[@mikemetz82]

For those watching they make a vinyl siding flange that frames the vent for a much cleaner install plus it's shingled properly. Caulking fails eventually so make sure to shingle your exterior penetrations.

[@lrc87290]

I was thinking the same thing. I would have done it the way he did it but knew I was sort of butchering it.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

no worries Mike, i get the whole seal it up tighter than drum approach but this house has 3" of exterior wood that can handle the occasional rain drop finding it's way behind the siding and typar. Cheers!

[@ichoozjc]

@@HomeRenoVisionDIY Your house might be fine, but it would just look better. Only takes a few minutes to trim it out cleanly and install behind the siding.

[@newmanfertig886]

@@HomeRenoVisionDIY won't last and it's a half ass way to do it. Also, too much foam insulation is not good. Insulation works better if not packed too tight.

As a person that is purchasing their first home (closing date is Jan 5th of 2021) these videos have been an immense help in understanding the scope of upgrades including cost and typical labor involvement. Really loving it, definitely had to subscribe, which is something I pretty much never do, but it’s well deserved in this instance. Thank you!

[@MAGAMAN]

As someone who has also recently bought a home, you probably don't understand the least of what you will be doing. I took two weeks off of work to replace the kitchen and bathroom cabinets and It has now been over a month of working and I still have not replaced the kitchen or bathroom cabinets. I have found everything from illegal wiring to massive damage to the insulation from rodents to old termite damage (without any live/active termites, luckily!) undocumented renovations (moving walls, etc.) done mostly wrong, structure cut out completely to run plumbing, hidden asbestos tile that only becomes visible once you start removing tiles, where you can no longer decide to just leave it alone.... I am about $20k in and have only just started working on adding in the cabinets to the kitchen. Cheap counter tops, sink, faucet, garbage disposal, etc are probably going to cost an additional $1k and I still have to do the bathrooms. Luckily I have a lot of time before I have to move out of my current rental!

[@roulettezoku]

@@MAGAMAN I’ve done quite a few upgrades since my purchase and thankfully everything went smoothly. I also bought a house built within the last 20 years, so there wasn’t much risk as far as illegal modifications.

[@BadAssDude69]

[@UtwoBed]

I'd like to share my valuable experience. My hood came with some really nice metal screw-in type anchors. These normally work very well for me on a variety of applications, but when I got to the part where you install the cover above the hood they pulled right out of the wall, and down came the hood. My advice is to take any plastic or metal drywall anchors and throw them in the trash. Make a bigger hole and use some nice toggle bolts to save yourself some grief. Better still, for a real permanent, quality job, pick out your hood, measure it out on the wall, cut the wall open, and install a 2X4 across where the hood mounting screws go.

[@danielconnolly6367]

I am dealing with this now. I used the supplied anchors with my hood fan. They are larger than these and are pulling out a little from the wall in my case so there is an annoying gap behind the duct cover. I just missed the stud on one side so I am thinking to take the cover off and screw into the stud at an angle.

[@scrdad2]

If you read Zline instructions they say wood anchoring is preferable

[@TheKikonioqp]

I have been watching your channel for the last two months, almost every day, repeat the videos about things that I am about to do over and over. I am about to install porcelain tile in my kitchen backsplash and also hanging my range hood on a recirc config all this after changing countertops, removed some upper cabinets, changed the flooring in the downstairs and repainted the whole house. It's my first home and as a Mexican living in the US and I have absolutely no reference or advice for how to do things like this on US style homes, you don't know how thankful I am I found your channel.

Flex duct is usually frowned upon for a kitchen vent because the excess grooves trap more grease which could be potentially dangerous

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

in actuality this hood fan has a grease collection system and a removable grease trap for cleaning. Cheers!

[@dougsabug]

Seriously, no grease trap will be sufficient to stop a exhaust fan fire. This should be a solid pipe with a no grease trap in the pipe

[@rjejames28]

I've heard the same, rigid metal

[@stefanschuster8971]

Aluminum or stainless semi ridged is what I tend to use. Also I sleve w pipe insulation threw the wall. None the less great video and some good tips . Also toggle bolts on bracket and lower part of fan (just above grease filters ) .

[@JohnSaccoccio]

Even if the code allows flex (which ours doesn't), check if the hood installation manual allows it. The inspector may request to see it. (They did for our dryer to prove the length was OK)

[@firebreathinggarage2117]

The exterior vent Hood was installed like a rookie, they make a square one inch thick flange with the hole for the vent pipe to eliminate the flat flange to the siding which will eventually leak.

[@Carpenters_Canvas]

Eventually? It will leak IMMEDIATLY … should have been a block with j channel installed … I havre canal siding anyway but ….. smh .. he does a decent job normally

[@dezznuzzinyomouth2543]

um as a sheet metal worker we always installed the elbow to the exhaust pipe... unless there was a need for a fire damper -pre drill the holes in the plastic - get a round $x inch collar pre drill as well - an extra step but there is NEVER any back fuming. i guess check local -local- building code as installing the elbow into the pipe instead of outside of the pipe will negate (not true) back fuming. the install tec will still have to seal the gaps created inside the round with "CHEAP DUCT SEALANT" then "hopefully" add metal tape to the seams 😂 sexy install i would of went with the collars... especially when your work is coming out awesome. collar cost you $5-$10 - bill the client 15x plus install.... cuz thats just the way it is.... 🍻

Thank you for validating my purchase. I got a Z-Line range hood after looking at several brands that appeared identical. I didn't know the brand but chose it almost at random.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Happy to be of some help. Cheers!

[@matthewsegreto7049]

I can tell you right now, most, if not all? I range hoods require metal duct work. Edit. The low end model z line says you can use plastic but their higher end one needs metal. From their instructions. Now if this is really the high end zline then he should have used metal duct work. I guess I've never seen plastic because I've always installed higher end models. Lmao Also after seeing him use the wrong size plastic and then sealing it with expanding foam, I don't know if you should follow this guy's instructions. Duct tape is a real thing that is supposed to be used for this and it's, not just tying people up. Using spray foam to seal duct work is not code anywhere.

[@scottsoriero9827]

I'm doing my entire kitchen and will use the former microwave outlet that is already in place. However, it is not close enough to center so I will need to move it over a bit. That is the one issue that I have though...No instructions or video shows the exact place the outlet should be depending on model. I'm now thinking that there is no set place for it and I should just keep it slightly off center so it will not interfere with the exhaust pipe. I also decided to use the metal heat tape to seal the exhaust pipe connection points. Thank you for your great videos.

[@Bululdaya]

I can't say I approve of the exhaust flange on the vinyl siding or lose junction box... With a gas range/exhaust, furnace, hot water tank, bath fan etc it's important to make sure carbon monoxide isn't getting pulled back in.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

@@DietBajaBlast "It was damaged" As in i purchased a damaged range hood. Also you shouldn't be relying on gobs of rtv to shed water. There are vinyl flanges specifically for vinyl siding.

[@pongpongpiano504]

I did my kitchen with similar style hood. however i added a 2x4 as a backing as the wall anchor will become loose one day. Because at high speed the fan does vibrate a bit and will vibrate , and the wall anchor will fail.

Pong Pong Piano snap-toggles are perfect for this. But would need to splurge on a half-inch diamond bit.

Another fantastic video Jeff. Just love his video's! I do have a question about using plastic venting in a hood though? Is it a special type of heat rated plastic or a Canada code? I've heard we can only use solid metal ducting in the US now...

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Yep... was just about to mention ask about that as well. Here in the US, you have to use the galvanized steel duct work for those. Evidently they are more efficient too, since they're smooth and product easier air flow as well. I ended up putting in blocking though to give the hood something meatier to secure to, though. Also, I did a make-up air system, just because why not? Ironically, I have the exact same z-line hood for my youtube project studio as well. Comes in handy that I can just use Jeff's measurements. haha!

[@realAmpereD]

Call me crazy but once you cut down the metal duct you could have pushed the flexible through and attached to the metal, taped it well and pushed it back through before screwing and caulking the vent. Is it not that necessary to seal that well? Seems like it’s just stuffed in and then foam. With moisture I’d think you want a seal with tape. Ty for all your amazing videos, best channel in KZbin. I do have one question about venting out the side of the house. I saw one video you did the same for a bathroom vent. I tried to have one installed, as an electrician I ran the electrical, but hvac dude told me don’t vent out the side because the moisture will go up into the eve and cause rot. Wanted to charge a ton to go through attic and roof. Is there any concern with this?

Hi home reno, I dont know what to say really, but after working with my own fan install i realized how good this video is. One problem tho. I Would love to see you talk a little bore about Fire safety, I found that the rules in Sweden are really extreme, but for a reason. Using plastic piping without fire proof materials is really bad, For sure, the fan can melt and cause issues, but if Fire spreads in the pipe made in plastic, the issue will be that you may not be able to stop it. It wont be an issue the first 2 years of use, but when the piping gets coated with grease, it will burn if fire goes thrue the fan, can you make a video about this? I dont know the rules in other coutries, but this one i dont think its a good idea to follow the minimum allowed :) Love your vids, just wanna make sure people are safe here :) And correct me if in wrong, love to learn :)

Thank you jeff, could u also make video of drilling hole through concrete, so we could know the right way of doing it. Plz

[@davidandclyde]

I love your videos you’ve saved me thousands and thousands of dollars 👌 I’ve learned so much from you thank you for giving me the confidence.

[@milanshergill]

Great and informational videos Jeff! Just wondering I saw you just installed the hood onto the wall itself but I read that its unsafe installation. The correct way is to have the hood installed onto the studs or a support between them instead of the drywall. Do you think installing it onto the wall is safe enough?

[@dalegreen6692]

Jeff, use a hair dryer to remove plastic from the hood. The plastic pulls off much easier whenever it’s warm

[@davepane7306]

I have to laugh because the old Jeff would have torn open that wall and said, "My God, look at this idiot, he didn't even fix the outlet to the wall, sheesh!!" Glad the new Jeff is less judgemental.

Probably the best install video I have ever watched on anything

[@napolitanotile2919]

I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO USED HIS RUBBER ON THE TAPE MEASURE AS A PLUG HAMMER LOL "THE PLAMMER"

[@fljetgator1833]

🤔 Jeff... Check it 'oat' .. You're using your tape measure as a hammer 🔨 ! 😯 ... 🤣 Great video mister

[@daviddesilva4971]

Stanley makes a great tape measure/hammer.

I throw away every tool that only has one function. Cheers!

[@fljetgator1833]

@@davefink2326 you🤔... are correct

[@Tallisman1000]

I can’t believe your code allows plastic duct in a kitchen exhaust fan... if there is a flash fire 🔥 the house burns down!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

fortunately fires don't just happen.

Why not use a 6' hole saw for a clean fast and professional cut??

[@gslashstrash5534]

I wish some one would show how the vents and all the other crap under the range hood went together

[@jonhickcox7852]

Does this not need to install into a stud?

[@joeapro]

Really was a few inches of wood to cut through there. Makes me feel like my builders were cheap!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

just a different style to building back in the old days. lots of wood and no insulation. Cheers!

Someone always got something negative to say. You're videos have helped me a ton thank you very much I will be subscribing to what you're talking about

[@dumboyoyo5245]

I agreed with you that some people like to say some negative. But that is the best way for other viewers who actually want to learn proper stuffs. Since this is diy stuffs. It is okay to do whatever. However, if it is wrong it is not good for you in long run. Lets for people complained about the "look" of the outside caulking. That is overboard. DIY not meant to be professional look. But some point out this that flex duct is not good. Because yes they might collect grease. For sure, it will be noisier than smooth galvanized duct. And it is actually against code in some place for using flex duct. Like he said if you DIY buy high quality appliance. But shouldn't buy something expensive and reduces its quality. Same reason why when he turns on the max mode, it is louder than his talking. If i'm not wrong usually the zline good quality are 2.5 sones (noise level) = should a slight louder than a fridge running. Unless his model is a high rating sones hood.

[@stevehuk902]

Great video. I have this install coming up this week. I love the idea of the floating outlet. Probably less greasy than what I had planned 😬

[@modularripoff3696]

Does the hood range have to be on a dedicated wire and breaker or can I add a refrigerator outlet with it

[@dannygom75]

Now i can do my installation. thanks.
