Drop-In Cooktop / Downdraft Vent 
Countertop Preparation Specifications

For detailed Drop-In Cooktop installation, refer to model-specific product
page and installation guide on web. Plan installation so that all required
minimum clearances between cooktop, overhead cabinets and adjacent
vertical walls are provided.

Position cooktop/vent cutout so all required minimum clearances are met.

Minimum flat countertop area must meet or exceed combined overall
width and depth as shown. Standard 25" countertop depth may NOT be
adequate for some cooktop / vent installations, especially with backsplash.

Separate circuits required for cooktop and vent. 

(Refer to product-specific

electrical specifications.)

Always consult local and national electric and gas codes. Check local
building codes for installation requirements, as they may vary per locale.

Downdraft Vent Specifications

For detailed Downdraft Vent installations, refer to model-specific 
product page and installation guide on web.

Voltage Rating – 120V / 60 Hz / 15 Amps

Connected Load (kW Rating) @ 120 Volts = 1.0 kW
(For use on adequately wired 120V, dedicated circuit having 2-wire
service with a separate ground wire. Appliance must be grounded 
for safe operation.)

Amps @ 120 Volts = 8.0 Amps

Vent unit outside of building only.

Vent must be installed in vertical orientation only.

1,600 CFM remote exhaust blower (PN # 5304444802) 
included with vent – shipped in separate box.

Do not use flexible duct. Round duct instead of rectangular duct
recommended, especially when elbows are required.

When multiple elbows are necessary, ensure a minimum of 24" of 
straight duct between any two elbows.

Thermal breaks such as short section of nonmetallic duct, should 
be used in areas of extreme cold.

For most efficient airflow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows 
as possible.

Cold weather installations should have additional backdraft damper
installed.

Installing a Downdraft Vent in combination with any gas cooking 
surface will affect optimum burner efficiency.

Note: For planning purposes only. Refer to Product Installation Guide 

on the web at electroluxicon.com for detailed instructions.

Cooktop Installation Note:

To ensure proper installation, refer to model-specific installation
guide on web for cooktop dimensions, cutout dimensions and
cabinet requirements. Due to varying cooktop depths, tight fit
is possible between cooktop and vent.

Countertop Preparation Note:

Be aware of areas of potential interference called out in
illustration. Countertop with raised lip and/or backsplash may
not allow enough flat area for proper installation, 2-13/16"
of flat countertop required behind cooktop. No gap required
between back of cooktop and front of downdraft trim piece.

 

*Standard 25" countertop depth may NOT be adequate for

some cooktop / vent installations, especially with backsplash.
