SPECIFICATIONS

Installation Requirements

Install the hood 30" (762) to 36" (914) from the bottom of the hood to the countertop.

BLOWER ASSEMBLIES

Pro Hood Liners require an internal, in-line, or remote blower assembly, available­ through an authorized Wolf dealer. For local dealer information, visit the find a showroom section of our website, wolfappliance.com. Refer to specific installation instructions provided with each blower assembly.

DECORATIVE HOOD

The decorative hood can be created out of wood, plaster, tile, or metal. The shape of the hood is not critical, however, the decorative hood and liner must fit together at the bottom edge in both width and depth. The height of the liner does not need to accommodate the entire height of the decorative hood.

The lower 3/4" (19) of the liner’s 4" (102) reveal is finished stainless steel. The bottom edge of the liner should not extend more than 3/4" (19) below the decorative hood.

Ducting

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ducting.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Consult a qualified HVAC professional for specific installation and ducting applications.

Pro hoods accommodate a 10" (254) round duct. Use only rigid metal ducting.

A straight, short duct run allows the hood to perform most efficiently. If the duct run exceeds 50' (15 m), a higher CFM blower may be required to maintain proper air flow.

Internal and in-line blowers require a roof or wall cap. Connect ducting to the cap or to the remote blower and work back towards the hood. Use sheet metal screws and high-temperature duct tape to seal joints between ducting sections.

Pro hoods include a backdraft damper. Local codes may require the use of an additional backdraft and/or make-up air damper. Contact your local HVAC professional for specific requirements.

A make-up air damper is available through an authorized Wolf dealer. For local dealer information, visit the find a showroom section of our website, wolfappliance.com.
