Installation Preparation
Installation Considerations
Hood Width
The hood width should be no less than the width of the
cooking surface. For proper performance, the housing must
cover the entire cooking surface.
For proper performance, the hood must be centered
horizontally above the cooking surface.
Distance From Cooking Surface
Hood installation height above a cooktop, rangetop or
range can vary. The installation height ranges from a
minimum height of 30'' (762 mm) to a maximum height of
40'' (1,016 mm); however, it is necessary to follow the
cooking appliance manufacturer’s installation instructions
for proper hood height (Figure 2).
NOTICE: The hood could incur some damage from heat if
a THERMADOR PROFESSIONAL®series range or
rangetop is operated with multiple burners at high settings
under a hood that is installed at minimum clearances.
Unit Weight
When calculating the load for the housing support system,
be sure to consider the weight of the ventilation unit.
Blower Motors
Integral, in-line and remote blowers are available through
your authorized THERMADOR®dealer. For local dealer
information, visit the Find a Dealer section of our website at
www.thermador.com.
The blower will vary in size and is dictated by the cooking
surface, the volume of air that needs to be moved and the
length of the duct run. Refer to the Ventilation Planning
Guide for detailed blower motor information.
Electrical Requirements
The unit requires a 120V AC, 60Hz. 20A branch circuit.
The hood should only be connected to a dedicated circuit
(with ground) that has been installed according to relevant
regulations.

When connected to a GFCI-protected supply,
THERMADOR PROFESSIONAL®hoods are suitable for
use in damp locations that are protected from outside
weather conditions and not subject to saturation with water
and other liquids, but can be subject to moderate degrees
of moisture (such as an outdoor covered patio or lanai
area). Refer to local codes, NEC/CEC, and or the Authority
Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for additional information.
Check your local building codes for proper method of
installation. In the U.S., if there are no applicable local
codes, this unit should be installed in accordance with the
National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70, Current Issue.
In Canada, installation must be in accordance with the CAN
1- B149.1 and .2 - Installation Codes for Gas Burning
Appliances and/or local codes.
The appliance must be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing a wire that allows the electric current to
escape.
Electrical Data on the Data Rating Plate
Data, including the model and serial number, is located on
the product data rating plate inside the appliance, visible
after removal of the filter frame (see Figure 30 on page 20).
Ductwork Preparation
Discharge Direction
The hood can be mounted on a wall or suspended from a
cabinet. Both vertical and horizontal discharge are possible
with either mounting method.
Ducting Recommendations
Proper performance is dependent upon proper ducting.
Local building codes may require the use of make-up air
systems when using ducted ventilation systems greater
than specified cubic feet per minute (CFM) of air
movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale.
It is the responsibility of the owner and the installer to
determine if additional requirements and/or standards
apply to specific installations.
DO NOT USE FLEXIBLE DUCT; it creates back pressure/
air turbulence and reduces performance. Always use metal
ductwork.
Always install a metal vent cover where the ductwork exits
the house. Hood must be vented to the outside of
building only.
COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional
backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air
flow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize
conduction of outside temperatures as part of 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 portion of the house.
MAKE-UP AIR: Local building codes may require the use
of make-up air systems when using ducted ventilation
systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The
specified CFM varies from locale to locale. It is the
responsibility of the owner and the installer to determine if
additional requirements and/or standards apply to specific
installations.
For safety reasons, ducting should vent directly outdoors
(not into an attic, underneath the house, into the garage or
into any enclosed space). The unit cannot be used in
conjunction with a recirculation unit.
THERMADOR®recommends not exceeding 50 ft
(15.24 m) equivalent length of duct.
NOTE: The 25 ft. Blower Connector Cable accessory
(EXTNCB2) will only work for distances up to 25 ft. DO
NOT use more than one Blower Connector Cable per
installation.
Keep duct runs as short and straight as possible. Elbows
and transitions fittings reduce air flow efficiency. Back to
back elbows and “S” turns give very poor delivery and are
not recommended.
A short straight length of duct at the inlet of a remote
blower gives the best delivery.
Hoods are supplied with a 10" (254 mm) round transition. A
locally supplied transition is required for other sizes.
Use Table 2 on page 9 to compute permissible lengths for
duct runs to outdoors.
WARNING
The appliance must be grounded.

Choosing the Correct Blower
It is recommended to use only THERMADOR blowers with
THERMADOR ventilation hoods. Consult the Ventilation
Planning Guide for recommended blowers. Contact
Customer Service for additional options (see the back page
for contact information).
IMPORTANT: Cutting off a connector to the appliance,
blower, or to the extension cable kit will void the warranty.
Blower selection will vary based on the volume of air that
needs to be moved and the length and location of the duct
run. For long duct runs with multiple turns and bends,
consider using a more powerful blower. For the most
efficient air-Àow exhaust, use a straight run or as few
elbows as possible (refer to “Ductwork Preparation” on
page 8).
Integral Blowers
These blowers are integrated into the hood at the time of
installation.
Remote Blowers
Depending on preference and ducting situation, these
blowers can be mounted on the roof or exterior wall of the
home. An exterior installation may be more appealing to
reduce noise in the kitchen.
The 25 ft. Blower Connector Cable Accessory
(EXTNCB25) is available to connect the hood to the
Remote Blower for distances up to 25 ft. Accessory cable
must be purchased separately. DO NOT use more than
one Blower Connector Cable per installation.
Inline Blowers
To minimize noise in the kitchen, these blowers are
mounted along the duct line anywhere between the kitchen
and the exterior wall. If there is easy access to duct line (in
an attic, for example), this may be an appealing option.
The 25 ft. Blower Connector Cable Accessory
(EXTNCB25) is available to connect the hood to the Inline
Blower for distances up to 25 ft. Accessory cable must be
purchased separately. DO NOT use more than one Blower
Connector Cable per installation.
Hood Transition
Discharge Direction
The hood can be mounted on a wall or suspended from a
cabinet. Both vertical and horizontal discharge are possible
with either mounting method.
VERTICAL DISCHARGE
The hood is shipped ready for vertical discharge.
The transition supplied with the hood connects to standard
10-inch round duct. Figure 3 shows the transition
connected for vertical discharge.
HORIZONTAL DISCHARGE
The transition supplied with the hood connects to standard
10-inch round duct. Figure 4 shows the transition
connected for horizontal discharge.

Blower Motor Installation
All hoods require the choice of a Remote, Inline, or Integral
Blower. Use only THERMADOR®blowers with
THERMADOR ventilation hoods. All blower models are
sold separately. See the Ventilation Planning Guide for
recommended blowers. Contact Customer Service for
additional options.
The hood is rated for 120 VAC, using a 20 amp circuit
breaker.
Blower selection will vary based on the volume of air that
needs to be moved and the length and location of the duct
run. For long duct runs with multiple turns and bends,
consider using a more powerful blower. For the most
efficient air-Àow exhaust, use a straight run or as few
elbows as possible (refer to “Ductwork Preparation” on
page 8).
