Choosing The Correct Blower; Hood Transition - Thermador PH60GS Installation Instructions Manual

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- ow 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.
