SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
A. Installation work and electrical wiring must be
done by qualified person(s) in accordance with
all applicable codes and standards, including
fire-related construction.
B . Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion
and exhausting of gases through the flue
(chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent
backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment
manufacturer's guideline and safety standards
such as those published by the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air
Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local
code authorities.
C When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not
damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
D. Ducted fans must always be vented to the
outdoors.
E . Always unplug or disconnect the downdraft
from the power supply before servicing.
WARNING
THIS PRODUCT IS INTENDED FOR
GENERAL VENTILATING USE ONLY. DO
NOT USE TO EXHAUST HAZARDOUS OR
EXPLOSIVE MATERIALS OR VAPORS.
WARNING
TO REDUCE RISK OF FIRE AND TO PROPERLY EXHAUST AIR, BE SURE TO DUCT
AIR OUTSIDE. DO NOT VENT EXHAUST
AIR INTO SPACES WITHIN WALLS, CEILINGS, ATTICS, CRAWL SPACES OR GARAGES.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE
ONLY METAL DUCT WORK.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK AND INJURY TO PERSONS,
VENTILATOR ASSEMBLIES, MODELS
UCV30, UCV36 AND UCV45 MUST BE
INSTALLED WITH INTEGRAL BLOWER,
MODEL VTN600CVA OR REMOTE BLOWERS MODEL VTR600R OR VTR1000Q.
OTHER VENTILATOR BLOWERS CANNOT
BE SUBSTITUTED.

INTRODUCTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The complete Universal Cook‘n‘Vent
System consists of the ventilator intake and a blower. See Fig. 1. The blower is either an integral
(mounted on the vent intake in the cabinet under the cooktop) or a remote (roof or outside wall mounted).
When a remote blower is used, a duct transition is mounted on the ventilator intake in place of the integral
blower to connect the intake to the ductwork. The duct transition must be purchased separately. (see Table
1.)
The integral blower or duct transition can be mounted in different positions on the intake to route ductwork
to avoid cabinet, building framing, utilities, etc. Important: To allow for cleaning access, locate blower
in the position closest to the duct outlet.
®
The Universal Cook‘n’Vent® System is available in 30-inch, 36-inch and 45-inch models, with countertop
trim in either stainless, black, or white. It is intended for use with any residential 30-inch, 36-inch or 45-inch
model (Thermador or other) gas or electric cooktop. It is not intended to be used with any professional
style cooktop or range.

STEP 1
PLAN THE INSTALLATION
Carefully follow the planning procedures listed below.
See Figure 2.
A. Determine whether a remote or integral blower will
be used. Remote blower installation requires 5
wires plus a ground wire to run from the
Cook‘n’Vent
B. Make sure adequate cabinet and counter space has
been provided for unit service if required.
C. Minimize cross drafts created by adjacent open win-
dows, doors, air conditioning, old heating vents,
recessed ceiling lights, and traffic patterns which may
affect performance.
D. For gas cooktop installations make sure that a mini-
mum 10 square inch opening is provided in the toekick or other cabinet area. Inadequate ventilation of
the cabinet below the cooktop may result in flame
outage when operating the vent system.

to the blower.
E. Provide "make-up air" to installation location to
improve performance and prevent problems, such as
fireplace chimney downdrafts.
F . Investigate potential ductwork routes and choose
the shortest possible route from the unit to an
outside wall or roof. For guidance, typical ducting
installations are shown in figures 3 through 6.
G. Determine whether the chosen route of ducting
will meet vent system performance requirements. To do this, measure the duct lengths
needed and determine specific fittings required.
Enter this data in the spaces provided in Table 1.
H. Follow the duct installation guidelines in Table 2.
