Installation Preparation
The custom insert unit is designed for installation inside a
custom-built hood assembly. It is for ducting to the outside.
It cannot be used in conjunction with a recirculation unit.
Hood installation height above a cooktop, rangetop or
range can vary. To obtain the necessary installation height
above a cooktop, rangetop or range, consult the
appliance's installation manual.
NOTICE:
The hood could incur some damage from heat if a
THERMADOR PROFESSIONAL
®
series range or
rangetop is operated with multiple burners at high settings
under a hood that is installed at minimum clearances.
Hood Width
The hood width should be no less than the width of the
cooking surface. For proper performance, the housing must
cover the entire cooking surface.
Where space is not restricted, a wider hood can be used to
increase capture area.
Distance From Cooking Surface
The installation height ranges from a minimum height of 30”
(762 mm) to a maximum height of 40” (1,016 mm);
however, it is necessary to follow the cooking appliance
manufacturer’s installation instructions for proper hood
height.
Unit Weight
When calculating the load for the housing support system,
be sure to consider the weight of the ventilation unit.
