Installation considerations
Clearances and requirements
Hood width
•
The hood width should be no less than the width of
the cooking surface. For proper performance, the
housing must cover the entire cooking surface.
•
For proper performance, the hood must be centered
horizontally above the cooking surface. Where space
is not restricted, a wider hood can be used to increase
capture area.
Distance from cooking surface
•
Hood installation height above a cooktop, rangetop
or range can vary.
•
The installation height ranges from a minimum height
of 30'' (762 mm) to a suggested maximum height of
40'' (1,016 mm). However, it is necessary to follow the
cooking appliance manufacturer’s installation
instructions for proper hood height.
NOTICE:
The hood could incur some damage from heat if
a Thermador Professional
®
series range or rangetop is
operated with multiple burners at high settings under a
hood that is installed at minimum clearances while the
hood is turned off.
Unit weight
•
This vent hood is heavy. Adequate structure and
support must be provided in all types of installations.
•
When calculating the load for the housing support
system, be sure to consider the weight of the
ventilation unit.
Support structure
•
Due to the weight of the hood, make sure the wood
mounting bracket is attached to all available wall
studs.
•
Framing must be fastened together and to ceiling
joists to provide enough structural strength to support
the weight of the hood and internal blower, if
applicable.
•
Wall framing should be, at minimum, made of 2"x 4"
lumber. Proper structural support is required to
accommodate the weight of the hood.
Venting
•
The chimney hood requires the ducting to be vented
to the exterior of the building.
*Follow cooking appliance manufacturer’s recommendations.
