1. For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows as possible.

2. Do not use flex ducting.

3. COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a non-metallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break. The break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house.

4. Hood installation height above a cooktop or range can vary. To obtain the necessary installation height above a Thermador Professional Cooktop or Range, consult the appliance's installation manual.

* For indoor grill installations, Thermador

recommends a minimum of 36" clearance and remote and inline blowers only (VTR630D, VTR1030D, VTR1330E, VTI610D, or VTI1010D).

5. Remote blowers require a five wire installation.

6. Make-Up Air: Local building codes may require the use of make-up air systems when using ducted ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.

7. Refer to Remote Control Installation Instructions if applicable.
