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 the “authority having
jurisdiction” when it comes to installation requirements for equipment. Therefore, installations should
comply with all local codes.
Southbend reserves the right to change specifications and product design without notice. Such
revisions do not entitle the buyer to corresponding changes, additions, or replacements for previously
purchased equipment.
This product is intended for commercial use only, not for household use.
The installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Natural Gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1, or the Propane
Installation Code CAN/CGA-B149.2, as applicable, including:
1. The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.45
kPa).
2. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual
shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal
to or less than 1/2 psi (3.45 kPa).
MINIMUM CLEARANCES FROM COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION

Units are suitable for installation on combustible floors.
Adequate clearance must be provided in the aisle and at the side and rear to allow the door to open
sufficiently to permit the removal of the racks and for serviceability.
On units with the convection-type oven, a minimum of 2 inches must be allowed behind the motor and
the rear non-combustible enclosure. Care must be taken to provide adequate air circulation to prevent
the motor from overheating. No additional clearance from the sides and back is required for service as
the units are serviceable from the front.
