INSTALLATION
the steamer because of a blocked drain and it also prevents any back pressure within the steamer cavity. The unit must be
free-venting to the atmosphere. Any connection that allows the build-up of back pressure in the unit such as a reduction in
pipe size to a line smaller than 1" or a 90 degree angle in the line prior to the "open runnel" drain discharge point may
cause personal or property damage and therefore will void the warranty. This is a pressureless, free-venting steam cooker
and will not operate properly unless the drain line is short, at a steep angle, and open! See figure 3.
CLEARANCES:
Allow at least a four inch (4") 102 mm. clearance between the back of the unit and any wall obstruction for proper
ventilation of the unit, and room for plumbing and electrical connections.
Do not locate the Model RS-4E adjacent to any high heat-producing piece of equipment, such as a range top, griddle,
fryer, etc., that could allow radiant heat to raise the exterior temperature above 130°F
(54°C).
DO NOT MOUNT ABOVE OTHER COOKING EQUIPMENT.
NOTICE
Local codes regarding installation vary greatly from one area to another. The National Fire
Protection Association, Inc. states in its NFPA 96 latest edition that local codes are "authority
having jurisdiction" when it comes to requirements for installation of equipment. Therefore,
installations should comply with all local codes.
EXHAUST FANS AND CANOPIES:
It is recommended that the steamer be installed under a ventilation hood. Consult local codes for proper installation of
hoods.
NOTICE
PROPER VENTILATION IS THE OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY. ANY PROBLEM DUE TO
IMPROPER VENTILATION WILL NOT BE COVERED BY WARRANTY.
LEVELING:
Unit must be level to assure maximum performance. Improper leveling may void warranty.
