Installation Preparation
ADVANCE PLANNING
• Refer to "Installation Preparation" for
information on appropriate placement
and necessary clearances when planning
installation.
• Avoid placing cabinetry directly above cooktop
when possible.
• If cabinetry is used above cooking surface:
- Use cabinets no more than 13" deep.
- Maintain 30" minimum clearance between
cooktop and unprotected cabinets directly
above cooktop.
- If clearance is less than 30", protect cabinet
bottoms with flame-retardant millboard at
least 1/4" thick, or gypsum board at least
3/15" thick, covered with 28 gauge sheet
steel or .02" thick copper.
- Clearance between cooktop and protected
cabinetry must not be less than 24".
- An exhaust hood that projects at least 5"
beyond front of cabinets can reduce risk
of burns caused by reaching over heated
surface units.
- Working areas adjacent to the cooktop
should have 18" minimum clearance between
countertop and cabinet bottom.
• A 30" or wider exhaust hood with 350 CFM or
greater airflow rating is recommended for use
over this Monogram cooktop.
• Installation must conform with local codes.
In the absence of local codes, the gas cooktop
must comply with the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1, latest edition.
• Gas supply should be located near the opening
for this cooktop (see Preparing the Opening and
Gas Connection sections of this manual). The
supply should provide natural gas at 7" of water
column pressure (11" of water column for LP
gas) and a maximum of 14" of water column
for natural or LP gas.
• The electric spark ignition feature for this
model requires a 120V electrical power supply
be located in the immediate vicinity of this
cooktop (see Electrical Connections section
of this manual).
WB28T10185 High Altitude Kit
For operation above 5,000 feet, order WB28T10185
Conversion Kit. This kit includes orifices for both LP
and Natural gas operation.

Installation Above Cabinet Drawers
• When installing the cooktop above a base
cabinet with drawers, it may be necessary to
use a shorter depth (front to back) drawer to
allow clearance for the gas connection.
