Installation Section 2
GLASS ISTALLATIO ISTRUCTIOS

To protect the induction unit from water penetration,
you must apply and bond the silicone adhesive properly
to create a water-tight seal.
Before you begin the installation, it is very important to
use isopropyl alcohol (minimum 70%) or equivalent to
clean any surface areas where the silicone adhesive will
be applied.
1. A custom designed support structure for the glass-top
is required.
(
1A
)
For countertop thickness of 1.5mm to 3mm (16- to
10-gauge), a typical installation frame is shown. The
frame is installed to the underside of the countertop.
(
1B
)
For countertop thickness of 20 to 30 mm or 1-inch, the
example shows a flange is created on the counter-top
for placing the glass.
2. The glass-top should not be adhered to the support
surface directly. First, apply silicone adhesive PACTAN
to the support surface. PACTAN is provided in the Air
Intake Kit.
3. Place the silicone stripes (provided).
4. Apply silicone adhesive again on top of the silicone
stripes.
5. Carefully lower the glass-top onto the support
structure.
6. In the example in (1A), machine screws are used to
adjust and level the glass-top.
7. For a watertight seal, apply silicone adhesive to fill the
gap completely. Carefully wipe up any excess silicone.
Let the silicone adhesive cure for at least 24 hours or
per recommendations from the manufacturer.
NOTE: Dimension of gap between glass and countertop, “x”
= 4.0mm or 0.16”.
NOTE: Dimension of the final installed height of glass-top
plus silicone, “y” = approximately 9.5mm or 0.37”
