Step 1: Ventilation
Requirements
It is strongly recommended that a suitable exhaust hood be
installed above the appliance. Downdraft ventilation should
not be used. The table on page 4 indicates the ventilation
hood options and blower capacity guidelines that are
recommended for use with all THERMADOR rangetops.
Due to the high heat capability of this unit, particular
attention should be paid to the hood and duct work
installation to assure it meets local building codes.
Due to the high heat of the rangetop burners, installing a
microwave oven with a ventilation system over the
rangetop is not recommended.
:
IMPORTANT
Ventilation hoods and blowers are designed for use with
single wall ducting. However, some local building codes or
inspectors may require double wall ducting. Consult local
building codes and/or local agencies before starting to
assure that hood and duct installation will meet local
requirements.
:
NOTICE
Most ventilation hoods contain combustible components
which must be considered when planning the installation.
1. Select Hood and Blower Models:
•
For wall installations, the hood width must, at a
minimum, equal the width of the rangetop. Where
space permits, a hood larger in width than the rangetop
may be desirable for improved ventilation performance.
•
For island installations, the hood width should
overhang the rangetop by a minimum of 3" (76 mm) on
each side.
2. Hood Placement:
•
For best smoke elimination, the lower edge of the hood
should be installed 30" (762 mm) above the rangetop
cooking surface. Use a 36" (914 mm) minimum
clearance if the hood contains any combustible
materials such as a wood covering (see Figure 1 on
page 6).
3. Consider Make-Up Air:
•
Due to the high volume of ventilation air, a source of
outside replacement air is recommended. This is
particularly important for tightly sealed and insulated
homes.
•
A qualified heating and ventilating contractor should be
consulted.
