Step 1
It is stron Ig_ recommended
that a
suitable exhaust hood be installed
above
the
range.
Downdraft
ventilation
should notbe used. The
table
below
indicates
the
Thermador
hoods,
by
model
number,
that are recommended
for use with all ranges.
1. Select
Hood and
Blower
ModeNs:
Forwall
installations,
the hood
width
must,
at a minimum,
equal the width
of the range
cooking
surface.
Where
space permits,
a hood larger
in width than the cooking
sur-
face may be desirable
for im-
proved
ventilation
perfor-
mance.
For
island
installations,
the
hood width should,
at a mini-
mum,
overhang
the
range
cooking surface by 3" on each
side.
Ventilation Requirements
iMPORTANT:
2,
Ventilation
hoods and blowers are
designed
for use with single wall
ducting.
However,
some
local
building
codes or inspectors
may
require double wall ducting.
Con-
suit local
building
codes
and/or
local agencies,
before starting,
to
"
assure that hood and duct instal-
lation will meet local requirements.
Do not install a microwave
oven/
ventilator
combination
above
the
3.
range,
as these type of units do
not provide the proper ventilation
and are not suitable
for use with
the range.
Hood Pmacement:
For best
smoke
elimination,
the lower
edge
of the hood
should be installed
36" above
the
range
cooking
surface.
(See Fig. 1).
If the hood contains
any com-
bustible
materials
(i.e. a wood
covering),
it must be a mini-
mum of 40" above the cooking
surface.
Consider
MakeoUp
Air:
Due to the high volume of ven-
tilation air, a source of outside
replacement
air
is recom-
mended.
This
is particularly
important for tightly sealed and
insulated
homes.
A qualified
heating
and venti-
lating
contractor
should
be
consulted.

Notes:
* For wall installations
where
adequate
space is available,
the installer or user may elect to
use a hood that is wider than the rangetop
cooking
surface.
This may be particularly
beneficial
for installations
having a long duct run or when
heavy usage of the grill is anticipated,
in which
improved
capturing
of the cooking
exhaust
is desired.
•* Thermador
offers a choice of remote
(VTR1030D
or VTR153OD)
or in-hood
(VTN 1030C)
blowers for use in wall installations.
*** Hood models PHH30DS
and PHH36DS
include a 600-CFM
built-in
blower. For optimal
ventilation,
a hood model with 1000-CFM
blower or greater
is recommended
for ranges
having a griddle or grill.
