Installation Specifications
Planning the Installation
General System Layout
The vent system consists of the downdraft vent and a
Dacor-approved cabinet blower (MRV3015 and MRV3615),
remote blower, or in-line blower. (See Pg. 7).
WARNING
• Failure to install an approved blower and proper duct-
ing will cause a backdraft and poor venting.
• To reduce risk of personal injury from reaching over a
hot appliance, avoid cabinet storage directly above the
cooking surface.
• Follow minimum clearances and installation location in
the vent, appliance, and blower instructions. Failure to
do so may cause a fire or safety hazard.
• Plan the installation so minimum dimensions are met or
exceeded. All contact surfaces between the downdraft
vent and cabinets/walls must be solid and at right angles.
• The downdraft vent has adjustable anchor legs to accom-
modate various cabinet heights.
• Install the downdraft vent and range/cooktop so they can
be removed for service.
• Allow access from the cabinet front to the chassis, and
utilities of the downdraft vent and cooktop for inspection
and service. (Drawers/shelves must be removable.)
• There are 7/8” access holes in the bottom and side of the
downdraft vent for connecting blower wiring and strain
relief. Wire the blower to turn on when the downdraft vent
is turned on. When installing a remote or in-line 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, Pg. 8, for details.)
• Consider the maximum-allowable duct run when decid-
ing the layout. (See Planning the Duct Work, Pg. 8, for
details.)
• See the range/cooktop installation instructions for mini-
mum cutout dimensions specific to the downdraft vent
being installed.
