QASAIR Installation Instructions
2
CONDARI PTY LTD makes over 120 different models of QASAIR Rangehoods plus
many specials designed by architects and interior designers.
It is important to follow the installation instructions for different models.
The following is general advice for the installation of QASAIR Rangehoods and is meant as a guide.
Firstly, there are many different cooking appliances on the market today and we list some here.
Electric Eco, Ceramic hotplates, Teppanyaki plates and Induction hotplates, which need special cooking
equipment. There are gas hotplates with four burners and a wok burner or fish burner of all different heat
output. Many companies offer a vario system with individual two gas burners, a wok burner, electric
ceramic hotplate, an electric griller or barbecue and an induction hotplate. There are three gas cooking
appliances with an open flame griller or barbecue.
Gas regulations require different heights for different brands of hoods. QASAIR hoods can be fitted 600
mm above the trivet of a gas hotplate. This is due to the fact they do not have plastic motors or plastic
internal parts. Over the open flame gas grillers or gas barbecues the filters must be 1200 mm above the
cooking surface. Therefore, a special rangehood is required to comply with the regulations. There are no
regulations over an electric hotplate except for those set out by the manufacturer.
All decorative hoods in the Sapphire, Gallery, Imperial, Argyle, Federation and Heritage range should be
set from 700 mm to 800 mm above the cooking surface. When the rangehoods are against a wall in a
galley or partially enclosed kitchen, they can be higher, but should not exceed 900 mm to 1000 mm.
For island situations they should not exceed 800 mm above as movement around the bench will result in
fumes being drawn away from the catchment area of the hood.
We have a model, the Thermidor which is installed in the ceiling and is higher than the recommendation.
This is for aesthetic reasons such as a view or window setting. The hood is fitted with three fans to
provide the necessary air movement.
The Executive Range of hoods are all meant to be put into cupboards over hotplates and can vary in
height due to the kitchen design. All of these hoods can be 600 mm above a gas and electric hotplate.
Above a gas wok burner or electric griller or barbecue they should be 700 mm to 800 mm above.
Over an induction cooktop the minimum distance should be 700 mm above, this applies to the Marcel
(MC1000L-2), all Undermounted (NDCH), Mini Trim (MT 60/90L-1) and all Undercupboard (UCH) models.
1.
The installation of QASAIR Rangehoods must comply with the information in
this booklet QASAIR Rangehoods are designed and made to work efficiently
over all domestic cookware available on the Australian market.
2.
Every QASAIR Rangehood must be ducted to the outside atmosphere by the
use of zinc-alume duct or non-porous and non-flammable materials.
We do not
recommend the use of any type of flexible ducting. Rangehoods must not be
vented into a wall cavity or a ceiling space. This prevents a build up of grease,
which can be a fire risk. Ensure the external outlet vent does not restrict the
airflow in any way, as this may result in reduced performance.
