Itemized range hood installation example
These are the same quantities and unit prices used by the downloadable app PDF. A cost line can represent measured work, a selected product allowance or a distinct site task. Check which interpretation applies before replacing any amount.
| Work item | Quantity | Unit price | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| Site and connection check | 1 job | $115.00 | $115.00 |
| Existing hood removal | 1 each | $140.00 | $140.00 |
| Hood product allowance | 1 each | $540.00 | $540.00 |
| Duct transition allowance | 1 set | $120.00 | $120.00 |
| Mount and secure hood | 1 each | $290.00 | $290.00 |
| Connection and airflow check | 1 job | $170.00 | $170.00 |
| Disposal and cleanup | 1 job | $95.00 | $95.00 |
| Subtotal / example total | $1,470.00 | ||
How the subtotal is calculated
The example line for site and connection check is 1 job × $115.00 = $115.00. This line is one part of the complete 7-item estimate and uses a fictional unit rate.
The document sums the rounded line amounts to $1,470.00. Tax and markup are not included; a zero tax field in a sample document does not mean a real project is tax-exempt. Confirm the actual treatment for the job you are quoting.
Measurement to verify: Measure opening width, mounting height, duct route and available power before ordering. Selection to verify: Show the hood product and transition fittings separately from mounting labor.
Assumptions and exclusions
Check cabinet clearances and isolate power before removal; verify the chosen unit fits the existing outlet.
Outside the stated scope: No new external vent, electrical circuit, cabinet rebuild or wall finish repair.
An absent duct, unsuitable wiring or cabinet modification requires a separately scoped trade visit. If the scope changes after a client reviews the estimate, update the relevant quantities, allowances and written exclusions before sharing a revised PDF.
