IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
T REDUCE THE RISK F FIRE, ELECTRIC
SH CK R INJURY, BSERVE THE F LL WING:
• Installation work and electrical wiring must be
done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated
construction.
• Two installers are recommended due to the size and
weight of the pro ventilation hood.
• Install the pro ventilation hood only with a blower
manufactured by Wolf.
• When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not
damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
• Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
Safety Instructions 4
To reduce the risk of fire and properly exhaust air,
be certain to duct air outside. Do not vent exhaust
air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics,
crawl spaces or garages.
T REDUCE THE RISK F INJURY T PERS NS IN
THE EVENT F A RANGE T P GREASE FIRE,
BSERVE THE F LL WING:
• Smother flames with close-fitting lid, cookie sheet,
or metal tray, then turn off the burner. Be careful to
prevent burns. If the flames do not go out immedi-
ately, evacuate and call the fire department.
• Never pick up a flaming pan—you may be burned.
• Do not use water, including wet dishcloths or towels
—a violent steam explosion will result.
USE AN EXTINGUISHER NLY IF:
• You know you have a class ABC extinguisher and
you already know how to operate it.
• The fire is small and contained in the area where it
started.
• The fire department is being called.
• You can fight the fire with your back to an exit
(NFPA fire safety tips).
T REDUCE RISK F RANGE T P GREASE FIRE:
A) Never leave surface units unattended at high
settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on
low or medium settings.
B) Always turn the ventilation hood on when
cooking at high heat or when flambeing foods
such as crepes suzette or cherries jubilee.
C) Clean ventilation fans frequently. Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
D) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface burner.
The hood motor has a thermal overload which will
automatically shut off the motor if it becomes over-
heated. The motor will restart when it has cooled
down. If the motor continues to shut off and restart,
have the hood serviced.

surface, the volume of air that needs to be moved and the
length of the duct run. Refer to ventilation recommenda-
tions in the Wolf design guide.
IMP RTANT N TE: Use only a Wolf blower with the pro
ventilation hood.

Electrical Requirements
Wolf pro ventilation hoods require a separate, grounded
120 V AC, 60 Hz power supply. The service should have its
own 15 amp circuit breaker. Locate the electrical supply
through the top of the hood, within the shaded area shown
in the installation specifications illustration on the previous
page.
IMP RTANT N TE: You must follow all National Electrical
Code regulations. In addition, be aware of local codes and
ordinances when installing your service.
Risk of electrical shock. This ventilation hood must be
properly grounded. Electrical service for the hood must
be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance
with all applicable national and local electrical codes.

Pro Wall Chimney Hood Installation 8
Install Ductwork
IMP RTANT N TE: Pro ventilation hoods must exhaust to
the outdoors.
Wolf recommends that the pro wall chimney hood be
installed 30" (762) to 36" (914) above the countertop.
Consult a qualified HVAC engineer for specific ducting
applications.
A 10" (254) round duct is recommended for pro ventilation
hoods. Use only rigid metal ductwork, do not use flex
ducting.
Decide where the ductwork will run between the wall
chimney hood and the outside. Pro wall chimney hoods
have a vertical discharge. A straight, short duct run will
allow the ventilation hood to perform most efficiently. Limit
the number of elbows and transitions. The duct run should
be no longer than 50' (15 m). There is a possibility of noise
issues, if a remote blower is used with a short duct run.
Unless you are using a remote blower, a roof or wall cap
must be installed. Connect 10" (254) round metal
ductwork to the cap and work back towards the hood.
Use duct sealing tape to seal joints between ductwork
sections.
Pro wall chimney hoods have a backdraft damper
included in the transition assembly. Local codes may
require the use of an additional backdraft damper. Contact
your local HVAC professional for specific requirements. In
cold weather installations, a backdraft damper is neces-
sary to minimize the backflow of cold air into the room.
Local building codes may require the use of make-up air.
Consult your local HVAC professional for specific require-
ments in your area.

Wall framing.
Wall Framing
IMP RTANT N TE: Aminimum 10" (254) opening in the
ceiling is required to accommodate the ductwork neces-
sary for proper ventilation.
1) Layout dimensions of the back of the wall chimney
hood on the wall (shaded area of illustration below).
Dimensions will vary with the width of the wall chimney
hood. Refer to the illustration and chart on page 6.
2) Construct the wall framing using minimum 2" x 4"
lumber. Proper structural support is required to accom-
modate the weight of the hood.
3) Mark the center location of the hood. Install 2" x 4"
blocking between wall studs. Refer to the illustration
below.
4) Position the wood mounting strip (provided with hood)
on the wall as shown in the illustration below. Secure
the mounting strip to wall studs and blocking using
#10 x 2" (51) flat head screws (provided with hood).
Framing must be fastened together and to ceiling joists
to provide enough structural strength to support the
weight of the hood and internal blower, if applicable.
Due to the weight of the hood, make sure the wood
mounting strip is attached to all available wall studs
and blocking.

Pro Wall Chimney Hood Installation 10
IMP RTANT N TE: For wall chimney hoods using a
600 CFM or 900 CFM internal blower, the internal blower
must be installed before the transition is attached.
4) The hood assembly is shipped with the transition
attached. The transition is shipped upside down in the
top of the hood and must be removed and reinstalled
in the proper position. Separate the transition from the
hood by removing the four shipping screws. Invert and
reattach the transition with the shipping screws.
5) If you are installing an in-line or remote blower, punch
out the knockout hole located on the top of the hood.
Install a wire clamp (provided with hood) for the remote
blower cable. Install another wire clamp in the hole on
top of the hood for the Romex®wire. Refer to the in-
line and remote blowers section on page 16 and follow
installation instructions provided with the blower.
Hood Preparation
1)Remove the filters of the pro wall chimney hood by
pushing each filter up at the angle it is placed in,
then rotate the bottom of the filter down. Refer to the
illustration below. Remove the center filter first. Gloves
should be worn when handling filters.
2) Slide the grease cups out from the bottom edge of the
back of the hood.
3) Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the four screws
retaining the hood’s internal frame shown in the
shaded area of the illustration below. Be sure to leave
the other two screws in place. Do not discard the
screws. They will be used to reinstall the internal frame
after installation is complete. Remove the internal
frame and set aside.
