[. . . ] Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock the service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified persons in accordance with all applicable codes & standards, including fire-rated construction. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. [. . . ] Each ventilator unit includes a filter housing and lights mounted on the mounting plate. A remote mounted ventilator unit, VTR1000Q or VTR1400Q must be purchased separately. The ventilators require a separate speed control unit, CTR 3Q (purchased separately), and a light switch or light dimmer switch (supplied by the electrical contractor). The VCH54 unit requires a transition model PLENUM (sold separately).

The use of 10" round duct or equivalent rectangular duct is acceptable for zero clearance. A Thermador VCHTR10 transitions from the rectangular hood opening to a 10" diameter duct. Verify the installation will have enough clearance for the transition and ducting. A VCH54 with dual filters requires additional clearance above the hood for the PLENUM transition. This transition is shown in Figure 4 (back page) transitioning from the VCH54 to the VCHTR10. For the most efficient ducting layout, use a straight run or as few elbows as possible. COLD WEATHER installations should have a backdraft damper installed to minimize backward flow of cold air, and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize heat loss due to conduction. The break should be as close as possible to the location where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house. Hood installation height above the cooktop is the user's preference. The lower the filter housings are above the cooktop, the more efficient the capture of cooking odors, grease, and smoke. Thermador recommends installing the hood 30" to 36" above the countertop. This is the distance from the cooktop to the bottom of the hood not the filter housing. The VTR1400Q and VTR1OOOQ remote blowers require five wire installations. Use 75 Watt (maximum) reflector type light bulbs for 120 volts, 60 Hz. [. . . ] Run Conduit for wires to mounting top plate and connect using proper connectors. Remove wiring compartment cover (accessible through filter housing) and connect wires as shown in Figure 5. For the remote blower installation follow the instructions supplied with the remote blower.
