This rangetop will best perform when installed
with Bertazzoni exhaust hoods. These hoods
have been designed to work in conjunction with
the Bertazzoni range and have the same
fi nish for
a perfect look.
Before installation of the exhaust hood, consult lo-
cal or regional building and installation codes for
additional speci
fi c clearance requirements.
Refer to the rangetop hood installation instructions
provided by the manufacturer for additional infor-
mation.
Select Hood and Blower Models:
• For wall installations, the hood should be
equal or larger width than the range. Where
space permits, a hood larger than the range
may be desirable for improved ventilation
performance.
• For island installations, the hood width should
overhang the range by a minimum of 3” (76
mm) on each side.
Hood Placement:
• For best removal of smoke and odors, the
lower edge of the hood should be installed
between 25 1/2” (65 cm) and 31 1/2” (80 cm)
above the range cooking surface.
• If the hood contains any combustible materials
(i.e. a wood covering), it must be installed at a
minimum of 36” (914 mm) above the cooking
surface.
Consider Make-Up Air:
Due to the high volume of ventilation air, a sour-
ce of outside replacement air is recommended.
This is particularly important for tightly sealed
and insulated homes. A quali
fi ed heating and
ventilating contractor should be consulted.
