ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS Be sure your Thermador Chimney Wall Hood is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. Installation, electrical connections and grounding must comply with all applicable local codes. If possible, site the earthed socket directly behind the chimney paneling. The grounded socket should be connected via its own circuit. If the grounded socket is no longer accessible following installation of the hood, ensure that there is a permanently installed disconnector.

Before installing a Thermador Chimney Wall Hood, be sure to verify the cutout dimensions and electrical connections. Also, always consult with the installation manual packed with the product for complete details before installing. Thermador Chimney Wall Hoods may be installed above a Thermador non-professional gas, electric, or induction cooktop to create a convenient cooking center. Refer to the appropriate section for additional specifications. Distance from Cooking Surface Proper mounting height is very important. If a hood is mounted too low, it may be difficult to cook and be unsafe. If a hood is mounted too high, performance may be compromised. For optimal performance, the distance from the cooking surface to the bottom of the hood should be a minimum of 30", unless otherwise noted. Please refer to the installation manual for each hood and cooktop/range model for proper hood mounting heights. Hood Width The hood width should be no less than the width of the cooking surface. Where space is not restricted, a wider hood can be used to increase your capture area. 156
