MODEL OPTIONS
Thermador Masterpiece Series Chimney Wall Hoods feature
sleek styling and numerous convenience functions. Chimney
Wall Hoods are available in 36-inch and 42-inch widths and are
adjustable to suit a range of ceiling heights. All stainless steel

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.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
The information in this design guide provides key features,
product dimensions, cutouts and installation specifications.
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.
