Installation Specifications

Planning the Installation

General System Layout

The vent system consists of the downdraft vent itself and a single Dacor approved cabinet blower (models ERV3015 and ERV3615), remote blower or in-line blower (see facing page for examples).

• Failure to install an approved blower or proper duct work will result in a back draft and/or the insufficient venting of smoke and fumes.
• To reduce the risk of personal injury caused by reaching over a hot appliance, cabinet storage space located directly above the range/cooktop should be avoided.
• Follow the instructions and diagrams for minimum safe clearances and installation location in these instructions, the appliance installation instructions and the blower installation instructions. Failure to do so may result in a fire or safety hazard.
• Plan the installation so that all minimum dimensions are met or exceeded. All contact surfaces between the downdraft vent and any cabinets or walls must be solid and at right angles.
• The downdraft vent is equipped with adjustable anchor legs to accommodate various cabinet heights.
• Install the downdraft vent and range/cooktop so that they can be removed if service is required.
• When installing the downdraft vent with a cooktop, access from the front of the cabinet to the chassis and the electrical/gas supplies of both appliances must be provided for inspection and service. Any drawers or shelves must be easy to remove for access to the cooktop, downdraft vent and utilities.
• There are 7/8” access holes in the bottom and side of the downdraft vent for connecting the blower wiring and strain relief. Wire the blower to turn on when the downdraft vent is turned on. When installing a remote or inline blower, run the blower wiring/conduit parallel to the duct work, connecting it to the downdraft vent on one end and the blower on the other.
• Allow room for the exhaust duct coming out of the unit. See Planning the Duct Work for further details.
• The maximum allowable duct run must be taken into consideration when determining the layout. See Planning the Duct Work for further details.
• Refer to the range/cooktop installation instructions for the minimum cutout dimensions specific to the particular downdraft vent model being installed.

Planning the Duct Work

• To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside the house or building. Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces or garages.
• TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL DUCT WORK.
• DO NOT install more than one blower to increase the length of the duct run. Even small differences between blower air flow rates can greatly reduce the air draw by the downdraft vent.

Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems with ventilation systems that move air greater than the specified movement rate (CFM). The specified rate varies based on locale. Consult a qualified HVAC specialist when designing the system for the requirements in your area and to assure optimal performance.
You must install one of the Dacor blower models listed below for the downdraft vent to operate properly. See the blower installation instructions for directions. For model CABP3, see the instructions later in this manual.

1. IMPORTANT : Due to a lack of clearance, do not use a CABP3 blower if a range or wall oven is to be installed in front of the downdraft vent.
2. Nominal rating at zero inches static pressure, see the CABP3 blower ratings on page 17 for actual rating.
3. Revision B and later units only.
4. Nominal rating at zero inches static pressure. See blower installation instructions for actual ratings.

For installations with CABP3 blowers:

• Installation with a CABP3 blower requires Dacor adapter kit # AERVCAB.
• The blower assembly is mounted to the front of the downdraft vent with the exhaust pointing in the desired direction. See page 10.
• The CABP3 blower output connects directly to 3 ¼ x 10 rectangular duct.

Installations with ILHSF and REMP series blowers:

With ILHSF and REMP blowers, the downdraft vent can be configured to exhaust through the back, the bottom or either side by removing the appropriate exhaust knock-out shown on the facing page.

• When connecting the duct work to the back of the unit, the customer must supply a 3 ¼ x 10 rectangular transition to make the connection.

• For side and bottom exhaust connections, use the supplied transition to connect the duct work to the unit. It transitions between the 1 5/8 x 16 exhaust outlet on the unit and a 3 ¼ x 10 rectangular duct connection. On bottom exhaust installations cut a hole in the floor to allow the transition and/or duct work to pass through the floor.

Duct installation requirements for all blowers:

• All duct work materials (including screws and duct tape) must be purchased separately by the customer.
• When planning new duct work, always look for the shortest, most direct route to the outside. See page 7 for examples.
• You can increase the duct size over the duct run if desired. To prevent a back draft, never decrease the duct size over the run.
• Do not rely on duct tape alone to seal duct joints. Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints with certified silver tape or duct tape.
• Use sheet metal screws as required to support the duct weight.
• To prevent back-drafts, a damper at the duct outlet may also be required.
• Make sure duct work does not interfere with floor joists or wall studs.
• With concrete slab construction, “box-in” the duct work and blower wiring to prevent collapsing or other damage when the wet concrete is poured.
• Cross-drafts or air currents from adjacent open windows or doors, heating/air conditioning outlets, ceiling fans and recessed ceiling lights reduce vent efficiency.
• System exhaust location (see page 8) must take into account accumulated snowfall, where applicable.

Calculating the Maximum Duct Run Length

• For optimal performance, consult a qualified HVAC specialist when designing the duct system.
• Do not use duct work that is smaller in cross-sectional area than the required duct sizes in the tables below.
• Keep the duct run as short as possible for best performance and never exceed the maximums stated in the table below right.
• The maximum duct length for the downdraft vent system depends on the blower model used and the number of elbows and transitions. The Equivalent Number of Feet for each elbow and transition (see table below) must be subtracted from the maximum straight length to compensate for wind resistance. To determine the maximum allowable length of the duct work, subtract all of the equivalent lengths of the elbows and transitions listed below from the Blower Maximum Duct Straight Length (see table right).

For example, for a downdraft vent system using 3 ¼ x 10 rectangular duct, two (2) 3 ¼ x 10 90° elbows, a 3 ¼ x 10 rectangular to 10” round transition, and a REMP16 remote blower:

• From the Blower Maximum Duct Straight Length table below, the maximum length without transitions and elbows is 60 feet.
• The equivalent length of each 90° elbow is 15 feet.
• The equivalent length of 45° elbow is 2 feet.
• The equivalent length of the transition is 4 feet.
• The total equivalent length of the above components is: 15 feet + 15 feet + 4 feet + 2 feet = 36 feet.
• The maximum amount of straight duct that can be used with a REMP16 and the above components is: 60 feet – 34 feet = 24 feet.

Equivalent Number of Feet (Nominal) – Duct Elbows and transitions

45° elbow 8 inch| 3 feet| 3 ¼ x 10 45° elbow| 7 feet
45° elbow 10 inch| 2 feet| 3 ¼ x 10 90° elbow| 15 feet
90° elbow 8 inch| 7 feet| 3 ¼ x 10 90° flat elbow| 20 feet
90° elbow 10 inch| 5 feet| 3 ¼ x 10 to 8” round transition| 4 feet
90° 3 ¼ x 10 to 8” round transition| 25 feet| 3 ¼ x 10 to 10” round transition| 4 feet
Roof cap| *| Wall cap*|

• The equivalent lengths of roof and wall caps vary with model and configuration. For equivalent length, contact the manufacturer or a qualified HVAC specialist.
  ** Not applicable for REMP series blowers.

Duct Work Design Tips

• Wherever possible, reduce the number of transitions and turns to as few sharp angles as possible. Two staggered 45° angles are better than one 90°. Keep turns as far away from the hood exhaust as possible, with as much space between each bend as possible.
• For best performance, use round duct instead of rectangular when possible, especially when elbows are required.
• If multiple elbows are used, try to keep a minimum of 24” of straight duct between them. Avoid “S” or “back to back” configurations of adjacent elbows.
• Do not use flexible metal duct.
