Installation
Installation recommendations
- A distance of at least 26" (660 mm) is
recommended above electric
cooktops to provide more workspace
and easier cooking under the hood.
- When selecting an installation height,
always take the user height into
consideration. Users should have
ample space to work comfortably on
the cooktop and reach the ventilation
hood controls with ease.
- Please note that the greater the
distance from the cooktop, the less
effective the hood is at drawing in the
cooking vapors.
- To achieve optimum vapor extraction,
the hood must be centered over the
cooktop, not to the side.
- The cooktop should be no wider than
the hood. Preferably, it should be
narrower for better extraction.
- The mounting area must be easily
accessible. The ventilation hood
should be easy to reach and
disassemble in case a service call is
necessary. This should be taken into
consideration when planning the
position of cabinetry, shelves,
ceilings or decorative elements in the
vicinity of the ventilation hood.
