Minimum clearance for cutout to combustible surface.
RANGEHOOD CLEARANCE (Dimension A)
[See A.G.A. 601 5.12.1.6]
Dimension A
(Measured from the plane of the pan supports to
Rangehood) should not be less than 650mm.
Any other downward facing combustible surface less than 600mm
above the highest part of the hob
shall be protected for the full
width and depth of the cooking
surface area.
However, in no case should this
clearance to any surface be less
than 450mm.
SIDE CLEARANCE (Dimensions B & C)
Where
Dimension B
, measured from the periphery of the nearest
burner to any vertical combustible surface, is less than 200mm, the

Height C
of not less than 150mm above the hob for the full
dimension (width or depth) of the cooking surface area.
Do use easy-to-clean finishes for the wall surfaces surrounding the
