11 2 Features Island Vent Hoods DCS-IVH-48 & DCS-IVH-36 The Dynamic Cooking Systems Island Vent Hood Models; DCS IVH 48 , DCS IVH 36, have been designed with the ultimate in household convenience in mind. Features include a high capacity, variable speed blower with speed controller, commercial style dishwasher-safe filters, easy to clean inside grease trays and four halogen lights with Hi/Low light switch. removable washable filters hanger rods blower on/off switch (4) blower variable speed halogen light on/off switch lights 3 Planning the Installation Backdraft Damper We recommend that a backdraft damper be used in all Vent Hood installations. Cold weather installations necessitate the use of a backdraft damper to minimize the flow of cold air into the room. A non-metallic thermal break should also be installed to minimize conduction of outside temperatures through the ductwork. Locate the thermal break as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house. Planning the Installation Before beginning installation of the Island Vent Hood and Ventilator, PLAN OUT the entire installation procedure beforehand, considering the following areas: HOOD SIZE & LOCATION- (The hood should be as wide or wider than the cooking appliance with the hood being centered on the appliance. Vertically, the bottom of the hood should be between 30”-36” above the appliance cooking surface.) DUCTING- (ducting transitions, air must flow to outside, use of Backdraft damper...etc.) ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS- (120 Volts, 60 Hz, 15 AMP Service, Local Codes...etc.) ADEQUATE MOUNTING SURFACES- (To support the weight of the vent hoods, location of ceiling studs, additional support for safe ceiling mounting...etc.) HANDLING NOTE-This Hood has been inspected prior to shipping to be free of defects. Due to the weight of the Island Vent Hood and Ventilator; and to prevent scratching or denting the unit, we recommend the use of two installers to move, place, and secure the Vent Hood to avoid personal injury or damage to the Hood. 4 Specifications Product and Venting Specifications Refer to venting specifications below when ordering the duct transition to 10”O. for 36”Island Vent Hood.

We suggest using 1 1/2 “ by 3 1/2 “ wood cut to fit the installation as shown in the following pages. The soffit mounting to the top of the Island Vent Hood will be 10 7/8 “ in length for the DCS-IVH-48 and 10 3/4 “ for the DCS-IVH-36. These dimensions allow room for a 1/2 drywall duct cover. Do not deviate from these dimensions when choosing a duct cover as the soffit structure must align with the mounting holes on the Island Vent Hood. You are limited to a maximum of 1/2 inch on all sides. NOTE: You will need to determine which type of duct cover will be used before installation and leave enough space around the soffit for a flush mount between the duct cover material and the top of the Island Vent Hood. CAUTION-When installing the ISLAND VENT HOOD directly to the ceiling, adequate structural supports are CRITICAL to secure the unit. The Island Vent Hood is heavy, weighing 128 LBS for the DCS-IVH 48 and 94 LBS for the DCS-IVH-36. NOTE: The soffit height will vary according to the ceiling height. GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDELINES: 1) Determine the location for installation. 2) Determine the centerline of the installation. 3) If drywall is installed, cut away enough drywall to expose 2 ceiling joist (1 on each side of the Hood center line) 4) Create your soffit structure according to ceiling height and attach soffit plates for DCS-IVH-36 or soffit brackets for DCS-IVH-48 with screws to sides (see the following pages for soffits and construction). 5) Attach soffit structure to existing ceiling joist. 6) Secure soffit with soffit braces according to model type (see diagrams page 710). 7) Attach Island Vent Hood to soffit with the six 2 inch mounting screws provided. Finishing the Installation: Once the Island Vent Hood has been mounted in place it will be necessary to install the electrical service. All electrical work should be done by a qualified electrician and must conform to all local standards. Refer to the wiring diagram on Pg. 13 for proper hook-up and grounding. NOTE: Black=live, White=neutral, Green=ground Complete the installation by making ductwork connections, testing unit functions, and installing & finishing drywall. 6 Soffit Installation Soffit for DCS-IVH-36 Island Vent Hood THE DIMENSIONS GIVEN ARE FOR A 1/2 INCH DRYWALL. 1) Create a soffit structure and attach the soffit brackets as in...
