ADVANCE PLANNING
Refer to “Dimensions and Clearances” for appropriate
placement and necessary clearances when planning
the installation.
• Cabinetry can not be installed directly above the
range.
• We recommend the installation of a vent hood above
the surface.
– The vent hood must be at least 24" deep.
– The vent hood must be at least the same width as
the range.
– For 48" models, we recommend the vent hood
blower be 1200 CFM.
– For 30" and 36" models, we recommend the vent
hood blower be 600 CFM.
• Working areas adjacent to the range should have
18" minimum clearance between countertop and
cabinet bottom.
• Clearance between range and side wall or
combustible material must be at least 12" on
each side.
• Allow 12" min. clearance at the back to combustible
materials.
• Allow 36" min. above the cooking surface to
combustible materials.
• Installation must conform with local codes. In the
absence of local codes, the range must comply with
the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA.54,
latest edition. In Canada, installation must conform
with the current Natural Gas Installation Code,
CAN/CGA-B149.1 or the current Propane Installation
Code, CAN/CGA-B149.2, and with local codes where
applicable. This range has been design-certified by
CSA International according to ANSI Z21.1, latest
edition and Canadian Gas Association according
to CAN/CGA-1.1 latest edition.
