4. Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference. The lower the hood above the cooktop, the more efficient the capturing of cooking odors, grease, and smoke. This hood has been approved for installations from 24” to 36” above the cooktop. The lower height may be inconvenient for tall people and large cooking vessels. Consequently, Thermador recommends the hood be installed 30”36" above the countertop.

5. Remote blowers require a five wire installation.

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

CAUTION:CAUTION:

CAUTION: Vent unit to

2. Use flex ducting only to connect rigid duct directly to transitions.

3. COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic 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

The transition supplied with the PHE hood mounts to the top or rear of the hood depending on the discharge direction.

1. Align mounting holes at base of transition with mounting holes on 1/2” flange located at the top or rear of the hood depending on direction of discharge.

2. Fasten transition to hood using 6 (4 mm x 9.5 mm) screws (included with hood).

3. Duct tape connection between transition and hood.

The desired installation height of the PHE is the user’s preference. Figure 2 shows a typical installation of the hood with two duct covers. Thermador offers 6” and/or 12” duct covers to fill the space between the hood and ceiling.

The installation height shown in Figure 2 is 24”. One 6” and one 12” duct cover have been used in this installation. Add or subtract duct

Figure 2

covers as appropriate to accommodate ceiling height and desired hood height. The duct cover structure is supported by the hood.

1. Hood Installation Height

After the hood installation height has been determined draw a horizontal line at a distance above the cooktop equal to the desired hood installation height plus

15.5”. This line is the

mounting location of the wooden bracket shipped with the hood.

2. Find the centerline of

the cooktop. Draw a vertical line along this centerline up to the horizontal line drawn in step 1.

3. The PHE is mounted to

the wall using a wooden bracket shipped with the hood. Remove the bracket from the hood by removing two shipping screws. Mark the centerline of the bracket.

Page 6

4. Find studs behind the drywall by tapping the wall or using a stud finder. Locate one stud on either side of the cooktop centerline to use for mounting the wooden bracket as shown in Figure 3.

Figure 3

5. Align the top of the wood bracket along the horizontal line drawn in step 1. Align the centerlines of the bracket and cooktop.

6. Drill a 3” deep 1/8” tap hole through the wooden bracket, drywall, and into the stud.

7. Use 2-4 (6mm x 80 mm) screws to attach the bracket to the wall as shown in Figure 3. For support of longer hoods, use three or four studs as available. Countersink the heads to prevent interference with the hood.

8. On the wood bracket mark the locations used to hang the hood according to Figure 4.

Figure 4

9. Drill a 1/8” tap hole through the wooden bracket and drywall. These screws do not need to go into the studs.

10. Screw 2 (4.2mm x 18 mm) screws into the wood bracket leaving 1/4” of the screw exposed for hanging the hood.

Page 7

11. Discharge Direction: Horizontal discharge requires a wall cutout, as shown in Figure 5, to provide clearance for the transition. The location of the cutout is determined by the hood installa-

tion height.

Figure 5

The transition supplied with the PHE connects to standard 10” round duct. Figure 6 shows the transition connected for horizontal discharge.

Figure 7 below shows the PHE configured for vertical discharge. Installations using this type of method require a cutout in the ceiling to accomodate 10” duct and the 1/2” conduit carrying power to the unit.

Figure 7

Duct covers, sold separately, are available to cover the space between the top of the hood and ceiling.
