INSTALLATION

Installation Information

INSTALLATION CODES AND STANDARDS

Installation must conform with local codes, or in the ab-

sence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, 

ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or the Natural Gas and Propane 

Installation Code, CSA B149.1, as applicable.
1.  The appliance and its individual shut off valve must 

be disconnected from the gas supply piping system 

during any pressure testing of that system at pres-

sures in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).  

2.  The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply 

piping system by closing its individual manual shut off 

valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply 

piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 

½ psi (3.5 kPa).  

Electrical grounding must be provided in accordance with 

local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the 

National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian 

Electrical Code, CSA C22.2, as applicable.
The electrical diagram is located on the inside of side 

panel of left hand console.

EXHAUST FANS AND CANOPIES

Canopies are set over ranges, ovens and kettles for venti-

lation purposes.  It is recommended that a canopy extend 

6 inches past appliance and be located 7.5 feet from the 

floor.  Filters should be installed at an angle of 45 degrees 

or more with the horizontal.  This position prevents drip-

ping of grease and facilitates collecting the run-off grease 

in a drip pan, usually installed with the filter.  A strong ex-

haust fan tends to create a vacuum in the room and may 

interfere with burner performance or may extinguish pilot 

flames.  Makeup air openings approximately equal to the 

fan area will relieve such vacuum.  In case of unsatisfac-

tory performance on any appliance, check operation with 

exhaust fan in the “OFF” position.  

ALL EXHAUST FAN

he exhaust fan should be installed at least two feet above 

the vent opening at the top of the unit.  

CLEARANCES

Adequate clearance must be provided in aisle and at the 

side and back.  Adequate clearances for air openings into 

the combustion chamber must be provided, as well as for 

serviceability.
• 

Sides

 - 0 inches

• 

Back

 - 4 inches at flue box

• 

Floors

 - Non-combustible

All units must be installed in such a manner that the flow 

of combustion and ventilation air are not obstructed.  Pro-

visions for an adequate air supply must also be provided.  

Do not obstruct side of the unit, as combustion air enters 

through this area.
Information on the construction and installation of ventilat-

ing hoods may be obtained from the standard for “Vapor 

Removal from Cooking Equipment”, NFPA No. 96 (latest 

edition), available from the National Fire Protection As-

sociation, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA, USA, 02269.
