Planing The Wiring - GE JVB36 Owner's Manual

Planning the Wiring
All wire connections and installations must be in
compliance with local codes. In the absence of local
electrical codes consult the National Electric Code.
The downdraft blower system draws 4 AMPS
and requires a 120 VAC, 60 Hz circuit.
Plan to provide a grounded outlet in a
location which will allow the unit's power
cord to reach.
On 36" model, plan the RAISE/ LOWER switch.
The lead to the switch is 72" long.
Preparing to Install the Downdraft System
Changing Blower Discharge
Discharge left
(shown with rectangular duct)
The vent is shipped with the outlet on the left.
If the position of the discharge needs to be moved
so the ductwork does not interfere with floor joists,
plumbing or wiring below, make the following
changes:
To change the discharge from left to right, remove
the screws holding the outlet panel to the bottom of
the vent. Remove and rotate the panel and fasten
with the screws.
Preparing the Blower
A transition is provided to connect a 3
to the blower. Attach the duct transition to the top
of the blower with the screws provided. The blower
has holes that match the transition.
Do not drill additional holes in the blower.
If round ducting is used, transition to 6" round to
connect to the inlet of the blower.
Discharge right

The outlet cannot be located on a back wall.
The outlet needs to be mounted on the side wall
of the cabinet or it could be on the back wall of an
adjacent cabinet with access through an opening
in the side wall. (Based on local codes.)
The blower can be mounted in the cabinet or under
the floor. The blower will fit between floor joists on
16" centers.
For installations where the blower is mounted
in the cabinet, attach the mounting supports to the
corners of the blower housing on the motor side of
the motor housing.
If the blower is installed under the floor, attach the
support legs to the corners of the blower housing on
" x 10" duct
the side that the inlet duct attaches.
