Note: Viking Outdoor hoods must be installed in a covered, non-enclosed area, and should be protected from the elements as much
as possible.
The bottom of the hood should be 30” (76.2 cm) to 36” (91.4 cm) above the grill surface. The hood should be installed 4-1/2” (11.4
cm) plus the distance between the back trim and surface from the back wall. (Note: There is a 3” minimum clearance from the back
trim to non-combustible surfaces, and a 24” minimum to combustible surfaces.) This will require building the hood out from the wall.
Any combustible material used for this purpose must be covered with locally-supplied stainless steel. Viking also recommends using a
backsplash.

UTILITY
REQUIREMENTS
Proper installation/ ducting is
extremely important to ensure
maximum performance. Use a qualified
and trained installer.
• 10” duct run for 900 – 1500
CFM
o Never use flexible duct; it
creates back pressure/air
turbulence and greatly
reduces performance.
DUCTING
• Check with a qualified and
trained installer or local codes
for makeup air requirements, if
any.
ELECTRICAL
• Hardwire direct with two-wire
with ground
• Max. duct run
• 120 VAC/60 Hz
o For 1,200 CFM—50’ (15.2 m)
o For 1,500 CFM—75’ (22.9 m)
o Duct run length is for
general reference only; for
longer duct runs, increase
duct size and contact a
qualified and trained
installer.
PLUMBING
Not applicable
GAS
Not applicable
o The 1,500 CFM ventilator
should be used with longer
duct runs.
o Straight runs and gradual
turns are best; for example,
each 90° elbow is equivalent
to 5 – 10 feet (1.52 – 3.05
cm) of straight run.
