Safety distance from the wall covering
If a wall covering is installed, a minimum safety distance must be maintained be-
tween the countertop cut-out and the covering, since high temperatures can dam-
age these materials.
If the covering is made of a combustible material (such as wood), the minimum
safety distance
between the countertop cut-out and the wall covering must be
2" (50 mm).
For coverings made of non-combustible materials (such as metal, marble, granite,
ceramic tiles) the minimum safety distance
between the countertop cut-out and
the wall covering must be 2" (50 mm) minus the thickness of the covering.
For example: thickness of wall covering 9/16" (15 mm)
2" (50 mm) - 9/16" (15 mm) = minimum safety distance 1 3/8" (35 mm)
