IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Tested in accordance with ANSI Z21.1-1993 Standard for
Household Cooking Gas Appliances.
These ranges must be installed in conjunction with a
suitable overhead vent hood. (See Step: 1 for Ventilation
Requirements). Due to the professional high heat capacity
of this unit, particular attention should be paid to the hood
and duct work installation to assure it meets local building
codes. To eliminate risk of burns or fire by reaching over
heated surface units, cabinet storage located above the
surface units should be avoided.
Check local building codes for the proper method of range
installation. Local codes vary. Installation, Electrical
Connections, and Grounding must comply with all
applicable codes. In the absence of local codes, the range
should be installed in accordance with the National Fuel
Gas Code ANSI Z223.1-Latest Edition and National
Electrical Code ANSI / NFPA 70-Latest Edition.
Model numbers with suffix ‘NP’ are manufactured for use
with natural gas, while model numbers with suffix ‘LP’ are
for use with LP gas (propane).
STEP 1: VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
A suitable exhaust hood must be installed above the
range. The following chart indicates the minimum blower
capacity recommended for hood ventilation. (Table 1).
CAUTION
Ventilation hoods and blowers are designed for use
with single wall ducting. However, some local building
codes or inspectors may require double wall ducting.
Consult local building codes and/or local agencies,
before starting, to assure that hood and duct
installation will meet local requirements.
Hood blower speeds should be variable to reduce noise
and loss of heated or air conditioned household air when
maximum ventilation is not required.
For best smoke elimination, the lower edge of the hood
should be installed a minimum of 30
² to a maximum of
36 ² above the range cooking surface, see figure 3. If the
hood contains any combustible materials (i.e. a wood
covering) it must be a minimum of 36
² above the cooking
surface.
Due to a high volume of ventilation air, a source of outside
replacement air is recommended. This is particularly
important for tightly sealed and insulated homes. A
reputable heating and ventilating contractor should be
consulted.
