Step, Plan the Installation | Thermador Cooktop, UCV45, UCV30, UCV36

STEP 1

PLAN THE INSTALLATION

Carefully follow the planning procedures listed below. See Figure 2.

A.Determine whether a remote or integral blower will be used. Remote blower installation requires 5 wires plus a ground wire to run from the Cook‘n’Vent® to the blower.

B.Make sure adequate cabinet and counter space has been provided for unit service if required.

C.Minimize cross drafts created by adjacent open win- dows, doors, air conditioning, old heating vents, recessed ceiling lights, and traffic patterns which may affect performance.

D.For gas cooktop installations make sure that a mini- mum 10 square inch opening is provided in the toe- kick or other cabinet area. Inadequate ventilation of the cabinet below the cooktop may result in flame outage when operating the vent system.

E.Provide "make-up air" to installation location to improve performance and prevent problems, such as fireplace chimney downdrafts.

F . Investigate potential ductwork routes and choose the shortest possible route from the unit to an outside wall or roof. For guidance, typical ducting installations are shown in figures 3 through 6.

G.Determine whether the chosen route of ducting will meet vent system performance require- ments. To do this, measure the duct lengths needed and determine specific fittings required. Enter this data in the spaces provided in Table 1.

H. Follow the duct installation guidelines in Table 2.
