Except for Models DD30I, DD36I and DD45I,
which include a 500 CFM internal blower, Wolf
downdrafts are shipped without the blower
assembly. In-line and remote blower assemblies
are available. The blower will vary in size and is
dictated by the cooking surface, the volume of
air that needs to be moved and the length of the
duct run. A straight, short duct run with a
limited number of elbows and transitions will
allow the ventilation hood to perform most effi-
ciently.
Wolf downdraft ventilation systems are designed
for use with 3

14" (356) ductwork for Models DD30R, DD36R
and DD45R. Each can be transitioned to 8" (203)
or 10" (254) round ductwork.
A remote-mounted blower will minimize the
amount of blower noise, but will not eliminate
the noise completely.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Install this downdraft
system only with a Wolf blower.
Refer to the cooktop ventilation recommenda-
tions on pages 115–116.

Wolf downdraft ventilation systems require a
separate, grounded 120 V AC, 60 Hz power
supply. The service should have its own 15 amp
circuit breaker, and a grounded 3-prong recepta-
cle should be located within reach of the 2

outlet is not critical as long as it is within reach
of the power cord that is located midway, top
and bottom, on the right side of the downdraft.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If Model DD30 is to be
installed in a 30" (762) wide cabinet, Model
DD36 in a 36" (914) wide cabinet or Model DD45

interrupter (GFCI) is not recommended and may
cause interruption of operation.
You must follow all National Electrical Code
