Use the dimensions in the above illustration to help plan how and where to provide duct access through your cabinet. Generally, 1-7/8" x 19" rectangular duct will be used through left, right, and back of cabinet - while 8" round duct will be used through cabinet floor.

For left, right, or rear exhaust: Allow at least 18" for transition and elbow or blower.

For left / right exhaust:

A 30" deep cabinet is recommended to align properly with flex blower. Flex blower can be mounted to rear cabinet wall or to a platform / frame (not provided) on the base of the cabinet floor. (See flex blower instructions).

Cabinet depths of 24" to 30" are required - depending on the type of cooking appliance.

The unit has an 30-in. power cord with a 3-pronged plug. Plan to provide a grounded outlet within reach of this cord.

FRONT TO BACK

INSIDE CABINET DEPTH

Refer to the cooktop installation instructions for dimensions of cooktop, countertop cut-out, and cabinet requirements. However, it is recommended that oversized cabinets be used for easier installation. Custom island designs need to account for deeper cabinets - especially when installed with a range in front of the downdraft or when mounting the blower behind the downdraft. You must also plan for an access door.

Cooktop depth can vary greatly from one to another. This may cause the fit of these two appliances to be rather tight.

Pay special attention to the areas of potential interference highlighted above. A countertop with (A) a raised lip and/or (B) a backsplash may not allow enough flat countertop for a proper installation. Note that 2-3/4" of flat countertop is required behind cooktop and that 2-1/2" is necessary between the back edge of the cooktop and the inside of cabinet back.

blowers use 8" or 10" round remote discharge plate instead of flex blower.

BLOWER

The downdraft blower system is designed for use with 8" round ductwork using a Flex Blower or 10" round ductwork using a remote blower. (Purchase blowers separately.) Six (6) different discharge connections are available - with side-to-side adjustment for accurate alignment of ductwork:

A = 8" Round, Left Discharge out of Flex Blower B = 8" Round, Right Discharge out of Flex Blower C = 8" Round, Down Discharge out of Flex Blower (Electrical

Panel to be mounted remotely)

D = 1-7/8" x 19", Left Discharge out of Housing to Remote Blower

or Flex Blower in remote location. Use 1-7/8" x 19" to 8" round transition, 1-7/8" x 19" to 10" round transition, or 1-7/8" x 19" ductwork as appropriate.

E = 1-7/8" x 19", Right Discharge out of Housing to Remote

Blower or Flex Blower in remote location. Use 1-7/8" x 19" to 8" round transition, 1-7/8" x 19" to 10" round transition, or 1-7/8" x 19" ductwork as appropriate.

F = 1-7/8" x 19", Rear Discharge out of Housing to Remote

Blower or Flex Blower in remote location. Use 1-7/8" x 19" to 8" round transition, 1-7/8" x 19" to 10" round transition, or 1-7/8" x 19" ductwork as appropriate.

For best performance: Choose the ducting option which allows the shortest length of ductwork and a minimum number of elbows and transitions. Check location of floor joists, wall studs, electrical wiring or plumbing for possible interference.
