How to install rangehood into hebel wall

IMG_9442.jpeg

I have bought a range hood for my outdoor kitchen and need to mount it into a hebel wall. The range hood (Devanti RH-BBQ-1200) comes with 2 x 8mm expansion bolts (pictured below) which the range hood sits on. 

Usually I would use Ramset Ramplugs to mount items to hebel but unsure how to go about this project.

 

Has anyone had experience in this area? Would using the Ramset plugs as then inserting something like Ramset ChemSet into the pre-drilled hole be a better alternative to the expansion bolts? 

what other products can I use to mount the range hood without jeopardising the hebel?

Re: How to install rangehood into hebel wall

Hi @Bubbles8712,

 

Thank you for your question about installing a rangehood over your outdoor kitchen.

 

Whenever questions pop up about anchoring things to Hebel, I recommend looking through the fixing to Hebel guide. This provides several solutions for different weights and panel types.

 

Were you aware of the specific Hebel panels that were used on your property? Also, how much does the rangehood weigh?

If you could provide these details, I could recommend a product based on the fixing to Hebel guide.

Thanks, Jacob.

 

Yeah, I have the fixing guide but it doesn’t have anything specific to range hoods. 

We have Hebel Power Panel for a double story house. Unsure what sub type it is though. The range hood weighs 33kgs.

 

I’m thinking about using a couple of RamPlugs 10mm x 80mm with hex head which are on the hebel fixing guide.
