Safety distance from the niche cladding
If niche cladding is installed, a minimum safety distance must be maintained
between the worktop cut-out and the cladding. High temperatures can alter or
damage these materials.
Flush-fit installation
a Masonry
b Dimension x = thickness of the niche cladding material
c Worktop
d Worktop cut-out
e Minimum safety distance to
combustible materials (e.g. wood) 50 mm
non-combustible materials (e.g. metal, natural stone, ceramic tiles)
50 mm – dimension x
Example: 15 mm thick non-combustible niche cladding
50 mm – 15 mm = minimum safety distance of 35 mm
