Refer to the cooktop installation instructions for dimensions of
cooktop, countertop cut-out, and cabinet requirements. The
2730 and 2736 can be installed in most standard 30" and 36"
wide cabinets.
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 4 areas of potential interference highlighted above. The back of the downdraft cut-out will be 1-3/4" from
the cooktop and 2" of FLAT countertop is needed behind cooktop.

The unit has a 2 ft. power cord with a 3-pronged plug. Plan to
provide a grounded outlet within reach of this cord. Outlet may
also be wall-mounted, with access hole in cabinet. If local codes
call for hard-wiring, see installation instructions.
DUCTWORK
This downdraft blower system is designed for use with 3-1/4" x
10" rectangular, or 6" round duct. The blower discharge can be
positioned in one of 3 directions with 7-1/2" movement side to side.

The system will operate most efficiently when the ductwork does
not exceed 40 feet of equivalent duct. The chart above, shows
equivalent feet of elbows and transitions. The number of feet of
straight 3-1/4" x 10" or 6" duct plus the equivalent feet of elbows
or transitions to be used should equal 40 feet or less.
