Location Requirements

NOTE: Downdraft vent is installed directly behind the cooktop.

Install the downdraft vent first, then install the cooktop.

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

■

Have a qualified technician install the downdraft vent. It is the installer’s responsibility to comply with installation clearances specified on the model/serial rating plate. The model/serial rating plate is located on the front of the downdraft vent above the terminal box cover.

■

■

■

■

Downdraft vent location should be away from strong draft areas, such as windows, doors, and strong heating vents or fans.

Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used.

Given dimensions provide minimum clearance.

Consult the cooktop manufacturer installation instructions before making any cutouts.

Check that the downdraft vent and cooktop location will clear the cabinet walls, backsplash, and rear wall studs inside the cabinet.

Check for the minimum distance between the front edge of the countertop and the front edge of the cooktop. The minimum horizontal distance between the overhead cabinets is the same as the width of the installed downdraft vent.

All openings in ceiling and wall where the downdraft vent will be installed must be sealed.

■

■

Grounded electrical outlet is required. See “Electrical

Requirements” section.

When installing the downdraft vent, the cabinet drawer will need to be removed and the drawer front installed permanently to the cabinet.

Cabinet Construction:

Downdraft vent is designed for use in a cabinet with a depth of

24" (61 cm). Some installations require a countertop deeper than

25" (63.5 cm). See the “Countertop Cutout Dimensions Chart.”

The maximum depth of the overhead cabinet is 13" (33 cm).

Overhead cabinets installed at either side of the downdraft vent must be 18" (45.7 cm) above the cooking surface.

For Mobile Home Installations

The installation of this downdraft vent must conform to the Manufactured Home Construction Safety Standards,

Title 24 CFR, Part 328 (formerly the Federal Standard for

Mobile Home Construction and Safety, title 24, HUD, Part 280) or when such standard is not applicable, the standard for

Manufactured Home Installation 1982 (Manufactured Home

Sites, Communities and Setups) ANSI A225.1/NFPA 501A, or latest edition, or with local codes.
