IMPORTANT NOTES:

•It is recommended that a THERMADOR PROFESSIONAL® wall or island hood or custom insert is used with THERMADOR PROFESSIONAL rangetops.

•Refer to www.thermador.com for a complete selection of ventilation options, blowers, and accessories.

•For high output gas rangetops (60,000 BTU or greater), the minimum of one (1) CFM of ventilation per 100 BTU is recommended. If the rangetop has a griddle, add 200 CFM to the estimated blower capacity. Additional blower capacity may be required for longer duct runs.

•For island applications, it is recommended to use a hood width that exceeds the width of the rangetop by 6” (152 mm), overlapping the rangetop by 3” (76 mm) on each end.

•**Not all 48” Pro Wall Hood models can accommodate a 1300 CFM blower.

•CFM = “cubic feet per minute” (standard blower capacity rating).

Step 2: Cabinet Preparation

1.To ensure professional results, the cabinet and countertop openings should be prepared by a qualified cabinet worker.

2.The clearances shown in Figure 1 are required. The same clearances apply to island installations, except for the overhead cabinets, which must have a space wide enough to accept the island hood.

3.The rangetop is designed to hang from the countertop by its side flanges. The countertop however, must be strong enough to support this rangetop. It may be necessary to add a supporting cleat along each side (see Figure 2) or a 2 x 4 corner brace (see Figure 3 and Figure 4 and Detail A). Another alternative would be to construct a deck to set the rangetop on.

4.The rangetop can be installed in various positions with the front either flush or projecting, depending on the countertop’s depth. (See Figure 5, side view of rangetop; see Figure 3, Figure 4, Figure 6 and Figure 7 for alternate mounting positions.)

5.The gas and electrical supply must be located in an area that is accessible without requiring removal of the rangetop. The appliance electrical power cord and gas pipe connection are located on the left rear underside of the rangetop, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 9.

6.When installing against a combustible surface, a Low Back guard is required. A THERMADOR® Low Back guard must be purchased separately (see “Step 6:

Backguard Installation” on page 13).

7.When using the Flush Island Trim, THERMADOR® recommends a minimum 12” (305 mm) rear clearance to a combustible surface (see Figure 1, Clearance Requirements). Clearances from non-combustible materials are not part of the ANSI Z21.1 scope and are not certified by CSA. Clearances of less than 12”

(305 mm) must be approved by the local codes and/or by the local authority having jurisdiction.

8.When the rangetop is installed against a combustible side wall a minimum clearance of 5” (127 mm) is needed from the side of the rangetop to the wall.

9.The maximum depth of over head cabinets installed on either side of the hood is 13" (330 mm).
