INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
The information in this design guide provides key features,
product dimensions and installation specifications. Before
installing a Thermador Island Hood, be sure to verify the
dimensions and electrical connections. Also, always consult with
the installation manual packed with the product for complete
details before installing.
Thermador Island Hoods may be installed above a Thermador
Cooktop or Range to create a convenient cooking center. Refer
to the appropriate section for additional specifications.
HOOD WIDTH
The hood width should be no less than the width of the cooking
surface. Where space is not restricted, a wider hood can be
used to increase your capture area. Island installations require a
greater capture area; therefore the hoods used should overlap
your cooking surface by a minimum of 3" to 6" on either side.
DISTANCE FROM COOKINg SURFACE
Proper mounting height is very important. If a hood is mounted
too low, it may be difficult to cook and be unsafe. If a hood
is mounted too high, performance may be compromised. For
optimal performance, the distance from the cooking surface to
the bottom of the hood should be a minimum of 30", unless
otherwise noted. Please refer to the installation manual for
each hood and cooktop/range model for proper hood
mounting heights.
