The installation of QASAIR Rangehoods must comply with the information in this booklet. QASAIR Rangehoods are
designed and made to work efciently over all domestic cookware available on the Australian market.
Clearance from cooktop to Rangehood
For electric hot plate cooktops
As there are no regulations for Rangehoods over an electric hot plate, please follow the manufacturers Instructions /
Recommendations.
For Induction cooktops
Induction cooktops may present problems with condensation on lters of Rangehoods.
All Qasair Rangehoods installed above an induction cooktop must be installed no less than 750mm between the
induction cooktop and the Rangehood, with the exception of the Eastmore (EAS) Rangehood which can be installed
no less than 600mm. Undermount (NDCH) and Conley (CON) Rangehoods are not suitable for induction cooktops.
For gas cooktops
All Qasair Rangehood installations over a gas appliance must comply with (AS/NZS 5601.1).
The Regulations for the installation of Gas Appliances (AS/NZS 5601.1) states that the clearance between the
highest part of the burner of a gas cooking appliance and a Rangehood be no less than 600mm. If the gas
appliance is designed for use without a cooking vessel like an indoor barbecue or open ame grill, then the
clearance from the cooking surface to the Rangehood shall be no less than 1200mm.
All Qasair Rangehoods installed above a gas cooktop must be installed no less than 600mm between the highest
part of the burner and the Rangehood.
The recommendation for Qasair Wallmount Rangehoods is that they be installed between 700 to 800mm above the
highest part of the burner. When the Rangehood is installed in a galley or partially enclosed kitchen the Rangehood
can be installed between 900 to 1000mm above the highest part of the burner.
Qasair Island Rangehoods should not be installed any higher than 800mm above the highest part of the burner as
any movement around the bench will result in fumes being drawn out from the catchment area of the Rangehood
with the exception of the Thermidor and Liverpool which for aesthetic reasons is installed ush with the ceiling.
Ducting
1. Every QASAIR Rangehood must be ducted to the outside atmosphere by the use of zinc-alume duct or
non-porous and non-ammable materials. Do not use of any type of exible ducting or plastic PVC piping.
Rangehoods must not be vented into a wall cavity or a ceiling space. Externally ducting the rangehood prevents
a build up of grease, which can be a re risk. Ensure the external outlet vent does not restrict the airow in any
way, as this may result in reduced performance.
2. QASAIR Rangehoods must be ducted in duct work equivalent to the outlet of the rangehood ie: The cross
sectional area of the rangehood outlet and the duct work must be equal. Do not reduce the duct size or have
sharp bends. Enlarge the duct size if the duct is to run 6 metres or longer. Advice from CONDARI is available to
ensure optimum performance. Always use nonammable materials to minimise the risk of re in the duct.
3. Ensure all ducting pieces are correctly tted and sealed with either duct tape or silicone to ensure that fumes
do not escape into the ceiling space and seep into living areas through vents or light ttings.
Qasair Rangehoods Installation Instructions4
Other Important Information
1. Always adequately ventilate the room when the rangehood is in use at the same time as appliances
burning gas or other fuels.
2. WARNING: Incorrect venting will result in additional noise and a reduction in efciency. Exhaust air must not be
discharged into any chimney or ue, which may carry combustible products from other sources.
a) Do not discharge the air-ow from the rangehood into a ue used for exhausting fumes
from burning gas or fuel;
b) For cleaning purposes please refer topage 59 of installation instructions for stainless steel;
c) If cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions as listed on page 59, there may be an
increased risk of re;
d) Some parts of the rangehood may become hot when cooking;
e) This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
3. The installation and tting of the rangehood should be done in such a way that will allow the unit to be removed
if service is required. Additional costs incurred in the removal of wall tiles, damage to walls or bench tops are not
covered by warranty.
4. To reduce the risk of xing screws coming in contact with live parts, do not drill or screw into the rangehood.
Live wires are encapsulated where possible to prevent user contact. If necessary drill from the inside out and
only through single sheet material.
5. NOTE: CONDARI recommend an air movement of between 1000 to 1400 cubic metres per hour over an indoor
barbecue, depending on the length of the duct run. Ensure a twin motor unit is installed over indoor barbecues
for optimum results. Barbecues should be positioned under the centre of the hood where the fans are mounted
and not near the outer edges where leakage may occur.
6. The lights in the rangehoods are LED and come with a night light except for D400L-1 and SEN400L-1.
7. If the supply cord is damaged, an authorised service centre or licensed electrician must replace it.
8. Do not ambé under the rangehood.
9. QASAIR domestic rangehoods must not to be used over barbecues approved for outdoor use only,
CONDARI make a range of hoods specically for outdoor barbecues in alfresco areas under the CONDOR
name.
10. CONDARI can manufacture rangehoods to be used over commercial cookers in domestic applications.
12. NOTE: Ensure all requirements are met with gas and electrical regulations and or state authorities.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
• H SERIES
• PYR
Installation must be carried out by the procedure outlined.
Failure to do so may void the guarantee.
Electrical: Wiring to the appliance must comply with State and local Regulations.
Connection to be carried out by a registered electrician.
Recommended xing points
MOUNTING BRACKET
• Use vertically punched slot for centre line
• Before cutting any holes check ceiling space for structural beams. It may be possible at this point to relocate the
hood position.
The fixing points are prepunched holes in the back of the hood and it may be necessary to drill through the back
of the hood into the wall stud.
1. Remove canopy and flue from boxes and check you have correct model and flue.
2. Locate centre point of cooktop.
3. Use level or plumb line to mark centre up to ceiling.
4. Mark level line for base of canopy 700-800mm above bench 750mm desirable.
5. Check roof space above for wires and obstructions as now is the time to decide on any changes to location due
to immovable obstructions.
6. Mark flue size on ceiling and cut neat exact hole to pass flue through.
7. For rear ducted models cut hole in wall for vent to pass through.
8. Fix mounting bracket to wall at desired height.
9. Remove fan(s) from canopy by removing side fixing bolts and disconnecting electrical plug at flexible connector.
10. Locate solid fixing points on wall and drill holes in rear of canopy to suit. If no solid fixing is available then now is
the time to install fixing points. Four points are recommended with one on each side at top and one on each side
at bottom.
11. Drill hole in rear of unit to pass power connection through where available on wall.
12. Check flue slides through hole in ceiling.
13. Place canopy flat on floor and fit stainless flue over spigot pushing all the way down for a neat fit. Drill hole in
rear of flue and fix to canopy with pop rivet or screw.
14. Carefully lift canopy into position, guiding flue through ceiling and feeding power cable through hole in rear of
canopy. Make sure canopy is sitting correctly on mounting bracket then fix to wall through fixing holes with solid
screws. (You may need to place a packer behind canopy if wall is bowed to make the canopy sit correctly).
15. Complete electrical connection to 10 AMP junction box to local electrical authority regulations ensuring power is
turned off during work.
16. Fit ducting to outside or exterior wall vent for rear ducted models. (Seal rear vents onto rear of hood with
silicone). A plumber should seal roof penetration with appropriate flashing. All joins in ducting need to be sealed
with duct tape or silicone and only use approved ducting of the correct size for your canopy.
17. Fit motor(s) back into canopy with fixing bolts and plug electrical connector in.
18. Test run hood.
