What is CFM?
Ventilation performance is measured in Cubic Feet
of evacuated air per Minute, or CFM.The Thermador
Professional®Series of ranges and cooktops, with
their increased heat and grease output, require 1000
to 1400 CFM of ventilation power. Our other elec-
tric and gas products require 300 to 1000 CFM (see
chart on adjacent page).
Updraft vs. Downdraft Ventilation
Updraft ventilation (overhead hood), collect and
remove cooking vapors several feet above the
cooking surface. Because cooking vapors naturally
rise,updraft systems tend to be the most effective
method of ventilation.
Downdraft systems provide an alternate method
of providing effective ventilation, for non-professional
cooktops and ranges. Downdraft systems integrate
beautifully in Island or peninsula installations, because
they don’t intrude in the overall kitchen decor.
Counter-level downdraft ventilators, can disrupt the
cooking process by pulling fumes away from the heat
source.The Thermador®Cook’n’Vent®downdraft
system telescopes up from behind the cooking sur-
face a full 10." Drawing heat and fumes from the
cooking vapors, not at the heat source. When not
in use, the Cook’n’Vent system can be retracted
flush with the counter top.
Integral vs. Remote Ventilation
A ventilator system’s motor and fan may be located
adjacent to the intake (integral)or on the outside
roof or wall of the home (remote).Integral ventila-
tors are installed with the least disruption to the
exterior structure of your home.Thermador offers
integral ventilators from 300 to 1000 CFM.
Remote ventilators are quieter, because the motor
is removed from the inside of the house.They also
take up less cabinet space and have a galvanized
finish which can be painted to match the exterior
of the home.Thermador offers remote ventilators
from 600 to 1400 CFM.
Professional Performance or Standard Ventilation
The Thermador customer loves to cook. We have
designed ventilation systems to meet the perfor-
mance requirements for the higher output cooking
appliances, to the more standard fare.The chart
on the adjacent page is a quick selection guide of
Thermador ventilation products best suited to your
customers’ cooking appliance.
The kitchen ventilator is one of the most important appliances in
the home. While the ventilator removes grease, heat, moisture,
cooking odors and combustion gases from the kitchen and indoor
environment, it also helps protect a family’s health and improves
the cooking environment. When choosing a ventilator, be sure to
select one which fully meets your customers’ cooking performance
requirements and personal taste.

1Updraft Width Guidelines: The minimum hood
width recommended for wall installation equals
the cooktop or range width. Where space is not
restricted, a wider hood can be used to increase
your capturing area. Island installations require a
greater capturing area, therefore the hoods used
should overlap your appliance by a minimum of
3"- 6" on either side.
2 Cook’n’Vent®Width Guidelines:The Cook’n’Vent
system selected should match the width of your
cooktop.Thermador offers 30," 36" or 45" widths.
Due to the high performance requirements of
Professional-style appliances for the home, an
overhead hood is highly recommended.
3 Available Ceiling Height:Before selecting your
updraft hood, check your available installation
space. This is determined by adding your floor-to-
countertop height, plus the recommended spacing
between your appliance and the bottom of the
hood, plus the height of the hood. See product
dimensions on pages 3.1 to 3.10.
4 Indoor Gas Grills: The local codes may require a
fire-rated construction for installation of open gas
grill appliances. Please check with your local codes
prior to installation.

Check the Local Codes:
Work with a qualified service technician, installer or
ventilation engineer to insure that all local installation,
electrical and grounding codes are satisfied.Always
refer to the specific installation instructions for your
ventilation product.
Minimize duct runs and limit the number
of transitions:
The inclusion of elbows and transitions; as well as
long duct runs can have a significant effect on the
ventilation performance and maximum duct run.
Do not use metal flex duct:
Metal flex duct is not recommended for use by
The National Uniform Mechanical Code standards.
Extreme weather conditions:
Cold weather installations require an additional back-
draft damper installed to minimize backward cold
air flow. In addition, a non-metallic thermal break
is needed to minimize conduction of cold air flow
through the ductwork.The damper should be on the
cold air side of the thermal break. The break should
be as close as possible to where the ducting enters
the heated por tion of the house.
Don’t place elbows and transitions back-to-back:
A gradually tapered transition is required between
different sizes of ducting. Placing two elbows or
transitions next to each other can cause a significant
reduction in performance. Include a 15-inch straight
section between transitions whenever possible.
High altitudes effect performance:
Ventilation systems are less effective at higher altitudes
(above 5,000 feet). When configuring your system,
estimate a 20% reduction in CFM performance. If this
is not possible, you can increase your duct size, or
CFM to enhance your performance.
Make-up Air may be required:
Newly built homes have tightly sealed doors and
windows, which can make your ventilation system less
effective. Some heating and air conditioning systems
make allowances for additional make-up air. At the
very least, some replacement air can be introduced
by simply opening a window or door. Please coordi-
nate with your local heating and ventilation exper t.
Do not use ducting smaller than 6":
Ducting smaller than 6," 4" dryer vent pipe or wall
caps are not recommended, because they severely
impair ventilation performance.
Recirculating vs. Ducted Hoods:
Recirculating hoods recycle the air through a filter
and return it to the kitchen.These hoods will not
remove heat, moisture or combustion gases from the
air. They will also be less effective in reducing odors
and smoke. All of Thermador’s hoods are ducted.
Don’t use butt joints:
Try to use male/female connections with the male
end pointing in the direction of the flow.Tightly tape
joints to prevent vapors from escaping the duct.
Ducting must be vented to the outside:
For safety reasons, never terminate ducting into an
attic, into the garage,underneath the house or into
any enclosed space.
For best air flow, use recommended duct size:
Thermador recommends the following in order
of size:
1st 10" round duct
2nd 8" round duct
3rd 7" round duct
4th 31/4" x 10" duct
5th 6" round duct is the minimum acceptable
(See Thermador ventilator performance charts on
pages 3.4, 3.5 and 5.2)
Base performance calculations on smallest duct size:
For maximum performance, do not use a smaller duct
size than the recommended transition size from the
hood. If you do transition down in size, your perfor-
mance calculations are based on this smaller opening
for the entire duct run.
Calculating Cubic Feet Per Minute (CFM):
Determine the equivalent duct length for your instal-
lation using the equivalent duct lengths for commonly
used transitions shown (on the next page).The
equivalent duct length is computed as follows:
1. Compute equivalent duct length of all transitions:
Transition Equivalent Feet
6" Wall Cap 2'
31/4" x 10" to 6" dia. 90º elbow 10'
Sub-total: 12'
2. Compute the equivalent length of all straight ducts:
Duct Segment Equivalent Feet
4' of 3 1/4" x 10" 4'
2' of 6" diameter duct 2'
Sub-total: 6'
3. Sum Equivalent Lengths for transitions and straight
duct sections:
Transitions 12'
Straight Duct Lengths 6'
Total Equivalent Length: 18'
4. Compute CFM using the performance charts
shown on pages 3.4 and 3.5 and the equivalent
length computed in step 3. Base the equivalent
length on the smallest diameter ducting used in
the system. For this example, you would determine
the CFM for 18' of 6" diameter duct.

Proper Hood Installation
Notes: Make sure that the cabinet or soffit bottom
is perpendicular to the wall before installing the
rough-in plate. It is important to select the ventilator
to be used before cutting the duct opening on the
cabinet or wall.
1. Detach the rough-in plate from the hood assem-
bly by removing three shipping screws on the
back and three shipping screws on the top of the
hood assembly.
2. Determine the discharge direction/location and
remove the proper knockout panels on the
rough-in plate.
3. Attach the rough-in plate to the cabinet or wall
with the mounting screws (#10 x 1")provided.
Use all holes provided in the rough-in plate.
(Use wall anchors as necessary on drywalls.)
4. Install integral ventilator per the instructions
listed on adjacent page. Remote ventilator
instructions are shown on page 4.4.
*Commonly sized roof jacks or wall caps can be found at any major hardware store.

STEP 3: TYPICAL HOOD INSTALLATIONS
A. Installations with Integral Ventilators
Electrical Connections for Integral Ventilators
Models VM410 or VTN600Q
WARNING: Before servicing or cleaning the unit,
switch power off at the service panel and lock service
disconnecting means to prevent power from being
switched on accidentally.
Notes: Before turning the power on, make sure the
ventilator is in “OFF”position. Use wire connectors
or wire nuts approved by UL or C/UL.
1. Remove the junction box from the rough-in
plate.
2. Run power supply wires, #16 AWG minimum
sized in 1/2" conduit from the ser vice panel to
the hood assembly.
3. Install a conduit connector on the conduit and
attach the connector on the top of the rough-in
plate.
4. Connect 120 volts, 15 Amp (minimum), 60 Hz
power leads by connecting white to white, black
to black and green ground wire to the power
supply ground wire, per local codes.
5. Reinstall the junction box cover.
6. Install lights.
7. Install wall cap (WC310)to sit flush against out-
side wall. Crimp edges if necessar y from transition
coming off of ventilator to fit into wall cap opening.

1. Remove and discard shipping brackets (located
on each side of the inlet ventilator).
2. Check rough-in plate on your hood for proper
knock out for the VTN600Q and discharge
direction.
3. Insert ventilator flange into ventilator mounting
channel located in the hood rough-in plate.
4. Tighten the other end of the ventilator flange to
the weld screw on the hood rough-in plate with
the flange nut.
5. Plug motor cord into receptacle on hood control
housing.
6. Attach the desired transition. For 8”round duct
use transition model HTR8. For 10” round duct
use transition model HTR10.
7. Seal all joints between the rough-in plate and the
transition with duct tape.
STEP 3: TYPICAL HOOD INSTALLATIONS
A. Installations with Integral Ventilators (cont.)
Mounting Integral Ventilator into Hood Canopy
Model VM410 Only
Notes: Before turning the power on, make sure the
ventilator is in “OFF”position. Use wire connectors
or wire nuts approved by UL or C/UL. For HB series,
you will need to complete steps 5 & 6 only because
ventilator is already installed in the hood canopy.
WARNING: Before servicing or cleaning the unit,
switch power off at the service panel and lock service
disconnecting means to prevent power from being
switched on accidentally.
1. Remove two screws securing Z-shaped bracket
from the VM410 ventilator and discard.
2. Remove the ventilator mounting bracket from
the VM410 and replace with a longer bracket
provided with the hood.
Note: Remove and discard the handle from the
VM410 ventilator after the ventilator is installed.
3. Insert one end of the ventilator mounting bracket
into the ventilator mounting channel located
in the rough-in plate, and slip the other end of
the bracket into the well stud (located in the
rough-in plate)and tighten it with the hex nut
(provided with the hood).
4. Plug the ventilator cord into the receptacle
located inside the hood assembly.
5. Attach the transition (31/4" x 10")to the top of
the rough-in plate, using the two shipping screws.
6. Seal all joints between the rough-in plate and
the transition with duct tape.
