Exhaust Hood
An exhaust hood must be installed over your
new appliance. (see fig. 2) Exhaust hoods
to match the Legend cooktops are available
from your dealer. Our hoods are designed
and built to complement your range’s visual
appeal and performance.
Should you wish to install an exhaust hood
of your own choice, ensure that the exhaust
hood you purchase is the correct size and
capacity for your Heartland cooktop. Please
follow the exhaust hood manufacturers instal-
lation instructions. When installing an after
market exhaust hood over a Heartland cook-
top we recommend that you use the clear-
ances as shown in the clearance diagrams for
exhaust hood installations. See page 3-10.
Venting Safety Guidelines:
Installation must be completed in accord-
ance with all local and national codes. Use
only materials which conform to local codes
in effect. Be sure the power is disconnected
before doing any electrical work. All duct
work must be metal. Do not use plastic duct.
The hood should never be exhausted into a
wall cavity or an attic where an accumulation
of grease could become a fire hazard. When
the installation is completed, turn on the fan
and make sure that there are no obstructions
in the line.
Electrical Installation
Electrical requirements: standard 120 volts
60 Hz .375 Kw volt receptacle, properly po-
larized, on it’s own line. Cooktops are
supplied with a 3 prong 5 ft. (1.5 m) moulded
plug cap power cord.
Models 3800/3820 gas cooktops must be
electrically grounded in compliance with lo-
cal codes. In the absence of local codes, the
installation must conform with the National
Electrical Code.
Disconnect the electrical supply and turn off
the gas supply before servicing the appliance.
Gas Line Installation
Gas requirements: 30” and 36” Heartland gas
cooktop models can be operated with either
natural gas or liquid propane (LP). The cook-
tops are set for either natural gas OR pro-
pane at the factory. A conversion kit may be
purchased at a later time and installed on site
should the need arise. The cooktop requires a
½” NPT connector. Use minimum 5/8” diam-
eter flexible line. Note: This unit contains a
pre-set regulator.
The cooktop must be installed in compliance
with local codes. In the absence of local
requirements, the installation must conform
with the National Gas Code.
Note: Appliances installed in the state of Massachusetts:
- This appliance can only be installed in the state of Massachusetts
by a Massachusetts licensed plumber or gas fitter
-This appliance must be installed with a three (3) foot / 36 inch
long flexible gas connector
-A “T” handle type manual gas valve must be installed in the
gas supply line to this appliance
During any pressure testing of the gas sup-
ply piping system, at test pressures equal to
or less than 2.5 KPS, the cooktop must be
isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual manual shutoff valve.
The maximum propane/natural gas supply in-
let pressure must not exceed 14” of water col-
umn. The minimum gas supply inlet should
be at least 6” of water column for natural gas
or at least 11” of water column for LP gas.
