Use this unit only in the manner
intended by the manufacturer. If you
have questions, contact the
manufacturer. (Thermador Customer
Service at 800/735=4328.
Before servicing or cleaning the unit,
switch power off at service panel and
lock service panel. This will prevent
power from being switched on
accidentally. When the service panel
cannot be locked, securely fasten a
prominent warning device, such as a
tag, to the service panel.

Sufficient make=up air is needed for
proper combustion and exhausting of
gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel
burning equipment to prevent back=
drafting. Follow the heating equipment
manufacturers guideline and safety
standards such as those published by
the National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA), the American Society for
Heating, Refrigeration and Air
Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE),
and the local code authorities.

WARNING
TO REDUCE
THE RISK OF FIREr
ELECTRIC SHOCKr OR INJURY TO

OBSERVE
THE
FOLLOWING:

Installation work and electrical wiring
must be done by qualified person(s) in

Due to size and weight of this unit two
installers are recommended.
When cutting or drilling into wall or
ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring
and other hidden utilities.
To properly exhaust air, be sure to duct
air outside. Do not vent exhaust air into
spaces within walls, ceilings, attics,
crawl spaces, or garages.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,
USE ONLY METAL DUCT WORK.

CONSIDERATIONS

BEFORE INSTALLING HOOD
may be inconvenient for tall people and large
cooking vessels. Consequently, Thermador
recommends the hood be installed 30-to-36
inches above the countertop.

For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a
straight run or as few elbows as possible.

CAUTION:
Vent unit to outside of building, only,

*

For indoor grill installations, Thermador
recommends a minimum of 30" clearance and
remote blowers only (VTR1000Q or VTR 1400Q)

Do not use flex ducting.

minimize backward cold air flow and a
nonmetallic thermal break to minimize

6.

Make-UpAir: Local building codes may require
the use of make-up air systems when using
ducted ventilation systems greater than specified
CFM of air movement. The specified CFM varies
from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC
professional for specific requirements in your
area.

7.

Refer to Remote Control Installation Instructions

conduction of outside temperatures as part of
the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold
air side of the thermal break. The break should
be as close as possible to where the ducting
enters the heated portion of the house.
4.

Hood installation height above cooktop is the
users preference. The lower the hood above the
cooktop, the more efficient the capturing of
cooking odors, grease, and smoke. This hood
has been approved for installations as low as 24
inches* above the cooktop. The lower height

if applicable.

Appliance Installation
1. Align mounting holes at base of transition with
mounting holes on 1/2" flange located at the
top or rear of the hood depending on direction
of discharge.

The hood can be mounted on a wall or suspended
from a cabinet. Both vertical and horizontal
discharge are possible with either mounting method.
Discharge Direction: The hood is shipped ready for
vertical discharge. To change to horizontal discharge
move the discharge cover shown in Figure la to the
top of the hood. The plate is held in place by four
screws.

2.
3.

Seal connection between transition and hood
with duct tape.

4.
Assembly of the Transition:
The supplied
transition mounts to the top or rear of the hood
depending on the discharge direction.

Fasten transition to hood using two (2)#8
sheetmetal screws (included with hood).

Remove tape holding damper closed.

The hood installation height is the user's prefer z
ence. Figure 2 shows a typical installation of the
hood with two duct covers. Accessory 6" and/or 12"
duct covers are used to fill the space between the
hood and ceiling.

Hood Height (36")

Standard

The installation height shown in Figure 2 is 36
inches. One 6" duct cover has been used in this
installation. Add or subtract duct covers as
appropriate to accommodate ceiling height and
desired hood height. The duct cover structure is
supported by the hood.

8 ft Ceiling
(96")

1. After the hood installation height has been
determined, draw a horizontal line at a distance
above the cooktop equal to the desired hood
installation height plus 15.5". This line is the
mounting location of the wooden bracket
shipped with the hood.
2.

Find the centedine of the cooktop. Draw a
vertical line along this centedine up to the
horizontal line drawn in step 1.

3.

The hood is mounted to the wall using a wooden
bracket shipped with the hood. Remove the
bracket from the hood by removing two shipping
screws. Mark the center line of the bracket.

4.

Locate one stud on either side of the cooktop
centedine to use for mounting the wooden
bracket as shown in Figure 3.

5.

Align the top of the wood bracket along the
horizontal line drawn in Step 1. Align the
centedines of the bracket and cooktop.

6.

Drill a 3" deep 1/8"tap hole through the wooden
bracket, drywall, and into the stud.

7.

Use 2 or 3 (#14 x 3") screws to attach the
bracket to the wall as shown in Figure 3. For
support of longer hoods, use three studs.
Countersink the heads to prevent interference
with the hood.
