Counter top Requirements
Countertops must have a deep flat surface to
accommodate the cooktop and the vent.
Countertops with a rolled edge and backsplash
may not provide the flat surface area required.
Base Cabinet Requirements
The base cabinet must be deep enough to
accommodate the minimum clearance to the
front edge of the counter top, the cooktop
burner box and the vent.
Downdraf t Vent and Cooktop Cutout
The installation of these downdraft vents
with any Monogram cooktop requires careful
consideration. For accurate planning,
review the individual dimension drawings
for the combined vent and Monogram
cooktop installation.
Before you begin you must:
1. Review countertop dimension illustrations
to be sure you will have enough flat
countertop surface depth.
2. Check to be sure that the total countertop
depth required (including minimum cutout
to front edge depth) allows enough space
for a backsplash.
3. Review the cabinet illustration. Check to
be sure that the interior cabinet depth will
house the cooktop burner box, the vent and
the cutout clearance from the front.
4. When countertop and cabinet depth present
a problem, review Creative Solutions.
5. Carefully review the installation instructions
packed with product or available online at
www.monogram.com.
With careful planning you can achieve a
custom look with minimal adjustments.
All 36” models are equipped with a separate raise/lower switch. The switch must be installed
in a separate location outside of the vent and cooktop cutout.

Against-the-wall installation
Move the base cabinet forward, 3" to 5".
Filler panels or complimentary moldings can
be added to the exposed cabinet sides.
Island or peninsula installation
Use an extra-deep countertop. The countertop
overhang at the front can be adjusted to meet
setback to cutout requirements.
Decorative trim
When the cutout to front edge of the
countertop requirement is more than 2",
add a bullnose trim to the front edge of the
countertop. The additional trim allows the
cooktop to be moved forward, providing
additional countertop depth and interior
cabinet space.
