Locate cooktop between wall studs or floor joists so that ductwork
may be installed properly.
•
Installing cooktop into pre-existing base cabinets may require
modifications. Cabinets with drawers require drawers be removed
and drawer fronts attached to cabinet face. Verify internal length
and width of cabinet base because sides or back wall may need cut
out and corner braces removed to accommodate unit.
•
Countertop opening MUST be cut based on dimensions shown, cut
squarely with sides parallel to each other and with front and rear
perpendicular to cabinet sides.
•
Pre-formed countertops with raised lip and radius at base of
backsplash may not allow enough flat area for proper installation.
Minimum 1" distance required from rear and front edge of cooktop
cutout.
•
Overhead cabinetry should not exceed a 13" maximum depth.
•
Absolute minimum horizontal distance between overhead cabinets
installed to either side of appliance must be no less than 36".
•
Allow 30" minimum clearance between top of cooktop platform
and bottom of unprotected wood or metal overhead cabinet; or 24"
minimum clearance when bottom of wood or metal overhead cabinet
is protected by not less than 1/8" flame-retardant millboard covered
with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015" stainless steel,
0.024" aluminum or 0.020" copper.
•
Allow 9" minimum required clearance from left edge and right edge
of cooktop to nearest combustible wall on each side.
Ductwork Preparation

•
Ventilation unit comes detached from cooktop. To ensure proper
installation, refer to 36" Electric Downdraft Cooktop Specifications
page for planning information, and installation guide on web for
complete installation details including countertop and cabinet
requirements.
•
Ducting Options – On floor, through floor or through wall.
•
Ventilation Unit Discharge Options – Rear or down.
•
Down discharge can also be adapted for alternate ductwork
installation providing left or right exhaust, by ordering Alternate
Duct Transition Kit (PN # 5304488297).
•
Consider ductwork location and desired installation before cutting
exhaust outlet hole in cabinet. For proper installation, cooktop
exhaust duct MUST be located between wall studs or floor joists.
•
Vent exhaust air outside only and NOT into any concealed space.
•
Exhaust Duct Required – Galvanized or aluminum duct in 6" round
or 3-1/4" x 10" rectangular, or combination of both. PVC should
be used if installing under concrete slab.
•
Local building code must be followed in specifying approved type

•
For maximum efficiency, use shortest, straightest duct run possible.
Unit operates most efficiently with up to 100 equivalent feet of duct.
(Refer to Calculating Duct Length Table in Product Installation Guide.)
•
Flexible ducting is not recommended due to severely restricted
airflow; if blower outlet and floor or wall duct location do NOT align,
flexible METAL ducting can be used to adapt to offset.
•
Thermal breaks such as short section of nonmetallic duct, should
be used in areas of extreme cold. Cold weather installations should
have additional backdraft damper installed.
