Downdraft Ventilator Housing
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Installation review
This downdraft system can be used to exhaust cooking by-products
such as heat, steam, and smoke that may be created while cooking
using gas or electric cooktops. With its versatile design, there are ve
(5) basic discharge options - left, right, rear, front and recirculation. It
is important to rst plan your installation. The purchase of additional
accessories to complete the installation may be necessary.
It can be mounted in an island, peninsula, or conventional wall location.
The blower (purchase separately) and electrical panel can be mounted to
the downdraft unit, inside the cabinet, or in a convenient remote location.
This unit can be easily installed following these basic steps:
•
Plan the installation.
•
Cut out the countertop opening.
•
Prepare the downdraft housing.
•
Cut out the cabinet opening for discharge.
•
Mount the downdraft in the cabinet.
•

PLAN THE INSTALLATION
Note: The manufacturer is not responsible for performance complaints
attributable to the duct section.
•
The device achieves its optimum performance by means of a short,
straight exhaust air duct and as large a pipe diameter as possible.
•
The optimum extraction performance is not achieved and fan noise
is increased if exhaust air ducts are long and rough and if there is a
large number of duct bends or diameters less than 6” (152mm).
•
The pipes or hoses for laying the exhaust air line must consist of
non-combustible material.
•
Seal the connection points of the ducts appropriately.
•
Ductwork must vent outside, not into attic spaces for example,
unless the available ’Non-duct Recirculation Kit’ is used.
Select ducting option
The 5 basic discharge connections, left, right, rear, front and recirculation can
be achieved through A to F with the optional parts listed.
1. The downdraft blower system is designed for use with 8” (203mm)
round ductwork using a exible blower or 6” (152mm) or 10” (254mm)
round ductwork using an inline or remote blower. (Purchase blowers
separately.): Six (6) different discharge connections are available:
A = 8” (203mm) Round, Left Discharge out of Flex Blower
B = 8” (203mm) Round, Right Discharge out of Flex Blower
C = 8” (203mm) Round, Down Discharge out of Flex Blower (Electrical
Panel to be mounted remotely)
D = 1-7/8” x 19” (48mm x 483mm), Left Discharge out of Housing to
Remote Blower or Flex Blower in remote location. Use 1-7/8” x 19”
1-7/8” x 19” (48mm x 483mm) to 6, 8, or 10” (152mm, 203mm, or
254mm) round transition ductwork as appropriate.
E = 1-7/8” x 19” (48mm x 483mm), Right Discharge out of Housing
to Remote Blower or Flex Blower in remote location. Use 1-7/8” x
19” (48mm x 483mm) to 6, 8, or 10” (152mm, 203mm, or 254mm)
round transition ductwork as appropriate.
F = 1-7/8” x 19” (48mm x 483mm), Rear Discharge out of Housing
to Remote Blower or Flex Blower in remote location. Use 1-7/8”
(48mm x 483mm) x 19” to 6, 8, or 10” (152mm, 203mm, or
254mm) round transition ductwork as appropriate.
2. For best performance: Choose the ducting option which allows the
shortest length of ductwork and a minimum number of elbows and
transitions. Check location of oor joists, wall studs, electrical wiring
or plumbing for possible interference.

Ductwork Preparation
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 specied cubic feet per minute (CFM)
of air movement. The specied CFM varies from locale to locale. It
is the responsibility of the owner and the installer to determine if
additional requirements and/or codes apply to specic installations.
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 ow 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.
MAKE-UP AIR: Local building codes may require the use of make-up air
systems when using ducted ventilation systems greater than specied
CFM of air movement. The specied 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 specic 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.
THERMADOR
®
recommends not exceeding 50 ft. (15 m) of equivalent
duct.
Plan cabinetry
For left, right, or rear exhaust:
Allow at least 18” (457mm) for transition and elbow or blower.
For left / right exhaust:
A 30” (762mm) deep cabinet is recommended to align properly with
ex blower. Flex blower can be mounted to rear cabinet wall or to a
platform / frame (not provided) on the base of the cabinet oor. (See
ex blower instructions.)
Cabinet depths of 24” (610mm) to 30” (762mm) are required -
depending on the type of cooking appliance.
For some applications, gas or electrical connections will need to be
moved or routed around downdraft unit.
For gas cooktop installations make sure that a minimum 27 square inch
(174 cm
2
) opening is provided in the toe-kick and cabinet base. Inadequate
ventilation of the cabinet below the cooktop may result in ame outage
when operating the fan on higher speeds.
Note: A cooktop sealing kit must be purchased for gas applications.
The kit includes hole covers for the toe-kick and cabinet base, as well as
a trim seal for the cooktop.

Cut countertop opening
1. Lay out and cut the cooktop cut-out far enough FORWARD so
downdraft will t behind it.
2. Set cooktop in place and slide it as far forward as possible without
exposing any gaps. Center and square it with edges of countertop.
3. Place the plastic template against the back ange of the cooktop.
Center the template. Trace around template to mark the
downdraftopening.
4. Remove cooktop from countertop.
5. Cut downdraft opening. Be careful not to chip edges of countertop.

Take measurements
1. Refer to the cooktop installation instructions for dimensions of
cooktop, countertop cut-out, and cabinet requirements. However,
it is recommended that oversized cabinets be used for easier
installation. Custom island designs need to account for deeper
cabinets, especially when mounting the blower behind the
downdraft. You must also plan for an access door.
Pay special attention to the areas of potential interference highlighted
below. A countertop with (A) a raised lip and/or (B) a backsplash may
not allow enough at countertop for a proper installation. Note that a
minimum of 2-3/4” (70mm) of at countertop is required behind cooktop
(C) and that a minimum of 2-3/4” (70mm) is necessary between the back
edge of the cooktop and the inside of cabinet back (D).
Installation with Electric and Induction Cooktops
Dimension “BT” is thickness of
the backsplash. Provide 1/2”
(13mm)clearance between the vent
cutout and the backsplash. Any
backsplash with a curved radius
where it meets the counter will
require additional clearance. Thicker
backsplashes may be used by
increasing the counter and cabinet
depths.
Set the cooktop into the coutertop
opening so that the back edge of the
cooktop overlaps the leading edge of
the downdraft.
