Installation Specifications
Cooktop / Downdraft Vent Countertop
Preparation Specifications
•
For detailed Cooktop installation, refer to model-specific
Planning Information page and installation guide on web.
Plan installation so that all required minimum clearances
between cooktop, overhead cabinets and adjacent
vertical walls are provided.
•
Position cooktop / vent cutout so all required minimum
clearances are met.
•
Minimum flat countertop area must meet or exceed
combined overall width and depth as shown. Standard
25" countertop depth may NOT be adequate for some
cooktop / vent installations, especially with backsplash.
•
Separate circuits required for cooktop and vent. (Refer
to product-specific electrical specifications.)
•
Always consult local and national electric and gas codes.
Check local building codes for installation requirements,
as they may vary per locale.
Downdraft Vent Specifications
•
For detailed Downdraft Vent installations, refer to
model-specific Planning Information page and installation
guide on web.
•

Cooktop Installation Note:
To ensure proper installation, refer to model-specific installation
guide on web for cooktop dimensions, cutout dimensions and
cabinet requirements. Due to varying cooktop depths, tight fit
is possible between cooktop and vent.
Countertop Preparation Note:
Be aware of areas of potential interference called out in
illustration. Countertop with raised lip and/or backsplash may
not allow enough flat area for proper installation, 2-13/16"
of flat countertop required behind cooktop. No gap required
between back of cooktop and front of downdraft trim piece.
*Standard 25" countertop depth may NOT be adequate for
some cooktop/vent installations, especially with backsplash.
•
Connected Load (kW Rating) @ 120 Volts = 1.0 kW
(For use on adequately wired 120V, dedicated circuit
having 2-wire service with a separate ground wire.
Appliance must be grounded for safe operation.)
•
Amps @ 120 Volts = 8.0 Amps
•
Vent unit outside of building only.
•
Vent must be installed in vertical orientation only.
•
1,600 CFM remote exhaust blower (PN # 5304444802)
included with vent – shipped in separate box.
•
Do not use flexible duct. Round duct instead of
rectangular duct recommended, especially when elbows
are required.
•
When multiple elbows are necessary, ensure a minimum
of 24" of straight duct between any two elbows.
•
Thermal breaks such as short section of nonmetallic
duct, should be used in areas of extreme cold.
•
For most efficient airflow exhaust, use a straight run or
as few elbows as possible.
•
Cold weather installations should have additional
backdraft damper installed.
•
Installing a Downdraft Vent in combination with any gas
cooking surface will affect optimum burner efficiency.
For detailed cooktop and
downdraft vent installation
specifications, refer to
model-specific product
page and installation
