Combustible

The minimum installation clearances from combustible and noncombustible construction for ranges using inputs of 20,000 Btu/Hr per open top burner are:

 

Combustible

Noncombustible

Sides

6" (152 mm)

0"

Rear

2" (51 mm)

0"

The ranges are suitable for installation on combustible ￿oors when 6" (152 mm) adjustable legs are used. When legs are removed, use only on noncombustible ￿oors, curb, or platform, with front appliance projecting 3" (76 mm) beyond curb or platform.

Ranges with convection ovens should be installed on 6" (152 mm) legs or casters, allowing 6" (152 mm) clearance from the rear of the range. If ranges with convection ovens are installed directly on curbs, without legs, or in back-to-back installations, provisions must be made for adequate air circulation, and these provisions must be approved by the manufacturer's Service Department. Contact the Service Department at the address or phone number shown on the front cover of this manual.

All modular ranges are to be installed only on non-combustible ￿oors.

The installation location must allow adequate clearances for servicing and proper operation. A minimum front clearance of 35" (889 mm) is required.

The range(s) must be installed so that the ￿ow of combustion and ventilation air will not be obstructed. Adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber(s) must be provided. Make sure there is an adequate supply of air in the room to allow for combustion of the gas at the burners.
