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. It is the
responsibility of the owner and the installer to determine if
additional requirements and/or standards apply to specific
installations.
The blower will vary in size and is dictated by the cooking
surface, the volume of air that needs to be moved and the
length of the duct run. Refer to “Blower Motor Installation” on page 10 for detailed blower motor information.

Ductwork Preparation
Discharge Direction
The exhaust air is discharged upwards through a duct.
Ducting Recommendations
Proper performance is dependent upon proper ducting.
Local building codes may require the use of make-up air
systems when using ducted ventilation systems greater
than speci¿ed cubic feet per minute (CFM) of air
movement. The speci¿ed CFM varies from locale to locale.
It is the responsibility of the owner and the installer to
determine if additional requirements and/or standards
apply to specific installations.
For safety reasons, ducting should vent directly outdoors
(not into an attic, underneath the house, into the garage or
into any enclosed space). The unit cannot be used in
conjunction with a recirculation unit.

(15.24 m) of duct.
Keep duct runs as short and straight as possible. Elbows
and transitions fittings reduce air flow efficiency. Back to
back elbows and “S” turns give very poor delivery and are
not recommended.
A short, straight length of duct at the inlet of a remote
blower gives the best delivery.
Hoods are supplied with a 10" (254 mm) round transition. A
locally supplied transition is required for other sizes.
Use Table 3 on page 7 to compute permissible lengths for
duct runs to outdoors.
recommends not exceeding 50 ft
DO NOT USE FLEXIBLE DUCT; it creates back pressure/
air turbulence and reduces performance.
Always install a metal vent cover where the ductwork exits
the house.
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 enters the heated portion of the house.

Electrical Requirements
Choosing the Correct
The unit requires a 120V AC, 60Hz. 15A branch circuit.
The hood should only be connected to a grounded socket
that has been installed according to relevant regulations. If
possible, place the grounded socket directly behind the
chimney paneling. Attach the grounded socket as close to
the appliance as possible and in an accessible location.
•The grounded socket should be connected to its own
circuit.
•If the grounded socket is no longer accessible following
installation of the hood, make sure that an electrical
switch is permanently installed for turning off the
appliance.
When connected to a GFCI-protected supply,
THERMADOR PROFESSIONAL
suitable for use in damp locations that are protected from
outside weather conditions and not subject to saturation
with water and other liquids, but can be subject to
moderate degrees of moisture (such as an outdoor covered
patio or lanai area). Refer to local codes, NEC/CEC, and or
the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for additional
information.
®
custom insert hoods are
Blower
A variety of interior and exterior blower options (Remote,
Inline or Integral) are available for THERMADOR
PROFESSIONAL® Custom Insert series hoods. If the unit
you have selected does not have a blower included, one
must be purchased separately.
It is recommended to use only THERMADOR blowers with
THERMADOR ventilation hoods. See the Ventilation Planning Guide for recommended blowers. Contact
Customer Service for additional options (see the back page
for contact information).
Blower selection will vary based on the volume of air that
needs to be moved and the length and location of the duct
run. For long duct runs with multiple turns and bends,
consider using a more powerful blower. For the most
efficient air-Àow exhaust, use a straight run or as few
elbows as possible (refer to “Ductwork Preparation” on page 6).
Integral Blowers
Check your local building codes for proper method of
installation. In the U.S., if there are no applicable local
codes, this unit should be installed in accordance with the
National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70, Current Issue.
In Canada, installation must be in accordance with the CAN
1- B149.1 and .2 - Installation Codes for Gas Burning
Appliances and/or local codes.
The appliance must be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing a wire that allows the electric current to
escape. This appliance has a cord with a ground wire and
grounded plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet
that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING
The appliance must be grounded.
Electrical Data
Data, including the model and serial number, is located on
the product data rating plate inside the appliance, visible
after removal of the filter frame (see Figure 39 on page 23).
These blowers are integrated into the hood at the time of
installation (included with the VCIB model units).
Remote Blowers
Depending on preference and ducting situation, these
blowers can be mounted on the roof or exterior wall of the
home. An exterior installation may be more appealing to
reduce noise in the kitchen.
Inline Blowers
To minimize noise in the kitchen, these blowers are
mounted along the duct line anywhere between the kitchen
and the exterior wall. If there is easy access to duct line (in
an attic, for example), this may be an appealing option.
