30"
Installation Requirements
Wolf cooktop ventilation hoods are recommended for use
with Wolf induction, electric and gas cooktops and integrated modules. For ranges and rangetops, a Wolf pro ventilation hood is recommended.
These hoods have a telescopic chimney ue. A ue extension is available through an authorized Wolf dealer.
Installation of the cooktop hood should be 30"
(914) from the bottom of the hood to the countertop.
36"
Wall and island hoods require an internal, in-line or remote
blower assembly, avail able through an authorized Wolf
dealer. For local dealer information, visit the nd a showroom section of our website, wolfappliance.com.
Consult a qualied HVAC professional for specic installation and ducting applications.
(762) to
Electrical
Installation must be electrically grounded in accordance
with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
For wall hoods, locate the electrical supply within the
shaded area shown in the illustration below. Allow a
minimum 12"
(305) Romex
hoods, locate the electrical supply on the ceiling inside the
top of the hood. Allow a minimum 6'
connection. A separate circuit, servicing only this appliance
is required.

Ductwork
WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, use only metal ductwork.
6" (152) round, rigid metal duct is recommended for cooktop
ventilation hoods.
A straight, short run is most effective and will ensure proper
operation. For best results, the duct run should not exceed
(15 m). For runs exceeding 50' (15 m), a higher CFM
50'
blower may be required to maintain proper air ow and
performance. A remote blower installed on a short duct run
may increase the potential for noise.
Internal and in-line blowers require a roof or wall cap (not
provided). Connect ductwork to the cap and work back
towards the hood. Use sheet metal screws and aluminum
tape or high temperature duct tape to seal joints between
ductwork sections.
Wall and island 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 specic requirements.
A make-up air damper is available through an authorized
Wolf dealer. For local dealer information, visit the nd a
showroom section of our website, wolfappliance.com.
