PLANNING INFORMATION Professional Rangetops INSTALLATION Professional Rangetops Gas Inlet Location From left side to centerline of gas inlet From rear to centerline of gas inlet 30-Inch 6 3/8" (152 mm) 36-Inch 48-Inch 11" (267 mm) 2 1/4" (54 mm) Ventilation Requirements We strongly recommend that a Thermador Professional Wall Hood, Island Hood or Custom Insert be installed with all Thermador Professional Rangetops. Due to the high heat capability of these units, particular attention should be paid to the hood and duct work installation to assure it meets local building codes. Downdraft ventilation should not be used. Due to the high heat of the Rangetop burners, installing a microwave oven with a ventilation system over the rangetop is not recommended on anything other than the 30" 5-Burner. Refer to OTR manufacturer's installation manual for clearances. The following table indicates the ventilation hood options for use with Thermador Professional Rangetops. Refer to the Ventilation Selection Guide in the Ventilation section or www.Thermador.com for a complete selection of ventilation options, blowers, and accessories. 48" Rangetop Side View 48-Inch Rangetop Cutout Dimensions inches (mm) Width 48" 36" 30" Configuration 6 Burners with Griddle 4 Burners with Griddle, and 6 Burners 5 Burners Ventilation Options 48" or 54" Pro Wall Hood 48" Wall Chimney Hood 54" Island Hood 48" or 54" Custom Insert 36" or 42" Pro Wall Hood 36" Wall Chimney Hood 42" Island Hood 36" or 42" Custom Insert 30" or 36" Pro Wall Hood 30" or 36" Wall Chimney Hood 30" or 36" Drawer Hood 36" or 42" Island Hood 30" or 36" Custom Insert Important Ventilation Notes: • For wall installations, the hood width must, at a minimum, equal the width of the Rangetop. Where space permits, a hood larger in width than the Rangetop may be desirable for improved ventilation performance. • For island installations, the hood width should overhang the width of the Rangetop by a minimum of 3" (76 mm) on each side. • For best smoke elimination, the lower edge of the hood should be installed 30" (762 mm) above the range cooking surface. • If the hood contains any combustible materials (i.e. a wood covering), it must be installed a minimum of 36" (914 mm) above the cooking surface. • Due to the high volume of ventilation air, a source of outside replacement air is recommended. This is particularly important for tightly sealed and insulated homes. • A qualified heating and ventilating contractor should be consulted. 48 Visit Thermador.com for complete specifications or text a Thermador model number to 21432 to have specs sent to your phone Visit Thermador.com for complete specifications or text a Thermador model number to 21432 to have specs sent to your phone 49 | THERMADOR | RANGETOPS | THERMADOR | RANGETOPS

Ventilation Requirements
We strongly recommend that a Thermador Professional Wall
Hood,
Island Hood or Custom Insert be installed with all Thermador
Professional Rangetops. Due to the high heat capability of these
units, particular attention should be paid to the hood and duct work
installation to assure it meets local building codes.
Downdraft ventilation should not be used. Due to the high heat of the
Rangetop burners, installing a microwave oven with a ventilation system
over the rangetop is not recommended on anything other than the 30"
5-Burner. Refer to OTR manufacturer’s installation manual for clearances.
The following table indicates the ventilation hood options for use with
Thermador Professional Rangetops. Refer to the Ventilation Selection
Guide in the Ventilation section or www.Thermador.com for a complete
selection of ventilation options, blowers, and accessories.
Important Ventilation Notes:
For wall installations, the hood width must, at a minimum, equal
the width of the Rangetop. Where space permits, a hood larger in
width than the Rangetop may be desirable for improved ventilation
performance.
For island installations, the hood width should overhang the width of
the Rangetop by a minimum of 3" (76 mm) on each side.
For best smoke elimination, the lower edge of the hood should be
installed 30" (762 mm) above the range cooking surface.
If the hood contains any combustible materials (i.e. a wood covering),
it must be installed a minimum of 36" (914 mm) above the cooking
surface.
Due to the high volume of ventilation air, a source of outside
replacement air is recommended. This is particularly important for
tightly sealed and insulated homes.
A qualified heating and ventilating contractor should be consulted.
