DCS 36/48BGB manual Clearances to Non-Combustible Construction

INSTALLATION

LOCATING GRILL/BUILT-IN CLEARANCES

Clearances to Non-Combustible Construction*:

A minimum of 3” clearance from the back of the grill to non-combustible construction is required for the purpose of allowing the lid to open fully. It is desirable to allow at least 6” rear and side clearance to non-combustible construction above the cooking surface for counter space. If you’ll be using the rotisserie option, the space is es- sential for motor and skewer clearance. The grill can be placed directly adjacent to non-combustible construction below the cooking surface. (Fig. 03)

WARNING!

Failure to maintain required clearances creates a fire hazard that may result in property damage or serious personal injury.

WARNING!

The BGB Grill is designed to function in an open area. Recommended minimum clearances should be maintained to all surfaces (combustible and noncombustible) for optimum performance. Noncombustible material within the minimum clearance area could result in discoloration or deterioration.

WARNING!

If a noncombustible material such as stucco is covering a combustible material such as wood, the minimum clear- ance distance needs to be held to the wood. The presence of a noncombustible material inside the clearance zone does not eliminate the minimum clearance zone to combustible material.

*DEFINITION OF NONCOMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL - Material which is not capable of being ignited and burned, such as materials consisting entirely of, or a combination of, steel, iron, brick tile, concrete, slate, and plaster.

Clearances to Combustible Construction**:

Minimum of 12” from the sides and rear of grill must be maintained to adjacent vertical combustible construc- tion, above the counter top level. You should take in account that there is a large volume of heat, and smoke will exhaust from the rear of the grill. This may discolor or damage unprotected areas (Fig. 04). Do not install under unprotected combustible construction without using a fire safe ventilation system.

A 12” minimum clearance must be maintained under the counter top to combustible construction. The clearance can be modified by a use of an insulated jacket.
