Installation instructions

Installation considerations

Clearances and requirements

The custom insert unit is designed for installation inside a

custom-built hood assembly. It is for ducting to the

outside. It cannot be used in conjunction with a

recirculation unit.

Hood installation height above a cooktop, rangetop or

range can vary. To obtain the necessary installation height

above a cooktop, rangetop or range, consult the

appliance's installation manual.

NOTICE: The hood could incur some damage from heat if

a Thermador Professional

®

series range or rangetop is

operated with multiple burners at high settings under a

hood that is installed at minimum clearances while the

hood is turned off.

Hood width

The hood width should be no less than the width of the

cooking surface. For proper performance, the housing

must cover the entire cooking surface.

For proper performance, the hood must be centered

horizontally above the cooking surface. Where space is

not restricted, a wider hood can be used to increase

capture area.

Distance from cooking surface

The installation height ranges from a minimum height of

30'' (762 mm) to a suggested maximum height of 40''

(1,016 mm); however, it is necessary to follow the cooking

appliance manufacturer’s installation instructions for

proper hood height.

Unit weight

This vent hood is heavy. Adequate structure and support

must be provided in all types of installations. When

calculating the load for the housing support system, be

sure to consider the weight of the ventilation unit.

* Follow cooking appliance manufacturer’s

recommendations.

of construction when calculating the total dead weight

load of installation, including but not limited to: wall, tile,

mortar, plaster, brick, finishes, partitions, and other

similarly incorporated architectural and structural items.

It is the responsibility of the owner and the installer to

determine if additional requirements and/or standards

apply to specific installations.

Page. 9

Blower motors

Integral, In-line and Remote blowers are available through

your authorized Thermador

®

dealer. For local dealer

information, visit the Find a Dealer section of our website

at www.thermador.com.

The blower performance options will vary in cubic feet per

minute (CFM) 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 the “Blower Motor Installation”

section for detailed blower motor information.

Support structure

Due to the weight of the hood, make sure the hood is

attached to all available wall studs.

Framing must be fastened together and to ceiling joists to

provide enough structural strength to support the weight

of the hood and internal blower, if applicable.

Wall framing should be, at minimum, made of 2"x 4"

lumber. Proper structural support is required to

accommodate the weight of the hood.

Electrical requirements

The unit requires a 120V AC, 60Hz. 15A branch circuit. The

VTR1330 blower in conjunction with a PHxxGWS requires

a 20 amp circuit breaker. The hood should only be

connected to a dedicated circuit (with ground) that has

been installed according to relevant regulations.

When connected to a GFCI-protected supply, Thermador

Professional

®

hoods are 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.

Check your local building codes for proper method of

installation. In the U.S., this unit should be installed in

accordance with applicable local codes or, in the absence

of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70

or the Canadian Electric Code, CSA C22.1-02.

9 WARNING

The appliance must be grounded.

NOTE: The 25 ft. Remote and In-line Blower Extension

Cable accessory (EXTNCB25W) will only work for

distances up to 25 ft. The accessory cable must be

purchased separately. DO NOT use more than one Blower

Extension Cable per installation.

Electrical data

Data, including the model and serial number, is located on

the product data rating label inside the appliance, visible

after removal of the filter frame (see “Product Data Rating

Label”).

Page. 10

Ductwork preparation

Discharge direction

The exhaust air is discharged upwards through a duct or

directly through the outside wall into the open.

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 specified cubic feet per minute (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.

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.

Hood must be vented to the outside of building only.

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.

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.

To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure

to duct air outside. Do not vent exhaust air in spaces with

walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces or garages.

The unit cannot be used in conjunction with a recirculation

unit.

Thermador recommends not exceeding 50 ft

(15.24 m) equivalent 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) transition. A

locally supplied transition is required for other sizes.

Use the “Equivalent Duct Lengths for Commonly Used

Transitions” table to compute permissible lengths for duct

runs to outdoors.

Choosing the correct blower

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).

IMPORTANT: Cutting off a connector to the appliance,

blower, or to the extension cable kit will void the warranty.

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 flow exhaust, use a straight run or as few

elbows as possible.

Integral blowers

These blowers are integrated into the hood at the time of

installation.

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.

In-line 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.

25 ft. remote and in-line blower extension

cable

The 25 ft. Remote and In-line Blower Extension Cable

(EXTNCB25W) is available to connect the hood to the In-

line and Remote Blowers for distances up to 25 ft.

Accessory cable must be purchased separately. DO NOT

use more than one Blower Connector Cable per

installation.

Hood transition

Discharge direction

The exhaust air is discharged upwards through a duct or

directly through the outside wall into the open.

The hood can be mounted on the wall only with a vertical

discharge.

Assembly of the transition

Hoods are supplied with a 10" (254 mm) round transition.

A locally supplied transition is required for other sizes.

1. A minimum height clearance of 7-7/16'' (189 mm) is

needed above the hood for transition mounting.

2. Align mounting holes at base of transition over the

mounting holes of the 1/2'' (13 mm) flange located at

the top of the hood.

3. Fasten transition to hood using four (4) 1/4'' (6 mm)

sheet metal screws included with hood.

Note: Screws must not hinder damper operation.

4. Seal connection between transition and hood with

aluminum tape. DO NOT use duct tape. Ensure that

the connection is completely sealed.

5. Remove tape holding damper closed.

Blower motor installation

Blower and Circuit Breaker Ratings

9 CAUTION

To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock, install this

range hood only with the blowers listed in the

Ventilation Planning Guide.

NOTE: Cutting the plug of the blower will void the

warranty or eligibility for return or exchange.

All blower models are sold separately. Use only

Thermador blowers with these ventilation hoods. See the

Ventilation Planning Guide for recommended blowers.

Contact Customer Service for additional options.

All hood models are rated for 120V AC installed with a

blower listed in the table above, using a 15 amp

dedicated circuit breaker. The VTR1330 blower in

conjunction with a PHxxGWS requires a 20 amp circuit

breaker.

Blower selection will vary based on the volume of air that

needs 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

flow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows as

possible (refer to “Ductwork Preparation”).

Integral blower installation

Integral blower models are integrated into the hood at the

time of installation. Integral blowers should be installed

after the hood is mounted to the wall.

For complete installation instructions see the instructions

supplied with the blower unit.

1. The blower is attached to the hood using weld studs

on the mounting plate. Guide the motor mounting

plate over the studs.

2. Attach four (4) nuts (included with hood) to the weld

studs. Tighten nuts with a 11/32'' nut driver to secure

the blower to the hood.

Installing a remote blower or an in-line

blower

For complete installation instructions see the instructions

supplied with the blower unit.

Remote blower

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.

In-line blower

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.

Blower wire connection

1. Remove junction box channel covering the wires.

2. Remove one circular knockout.

3. Route the blower motor’s plug connector to the hood.

Connect the blower’s harness to the hood harness.
