VENTILATION VENTILATION
It is strongly recommended that this appliance be installed with a Hestan vent hood. While this unit
does not have the high heat output of a traditional gas rangetop, evacuation of steam, vapors, and
cooking odors is still desirable. It is very important that the hood and ductwork installation meets
local building codes and is installed by a qualified technician.
Do not use a down-draft style ventilation system.
Do not mount a microwave oven/ventilator combination above the rangetop. These type of units do
not typically have sufficient airflow and were not tested with this type of appliance.
For non-Hestan approved vent hoods, the vent hood and/or blower unit must be rated for at least
300 CFM for 30" and 36" induction rangetop sizes.
For island applications, it is recommended to use a vent hood that is 6" [15.2 cm] wider than the
appliance, to allow for 3" [7.6 cm] of overlap on the left and right of the appliance.
Keep duct runs as short and straight as possible. Elbows and transition fittings reduce airflow
efficiency. Hestan recommends keeping the duct run under 50 ft. [15.2 m].
CONSULT WITH YOUR HESTAN DEALER ON SELECTING THE APPROPRIATE
VENT HOOD FOR YOUR HESTAN APPLIANCE.
