Clearance Dimensions
The bottom of a standard hood should be
30" (76.2 cm) min. to 36" (91.4 cm) max.
above the countertop. This would typically
result in the bottom of the hood being
66" (167.6 cm) to 72" (182.9 cm) above the
floor. Refer to the rangehood installation
instructions for additional information. These
dimensions provide for safe and efficient
operation of the hood.

Electrical & Gas Requirements
Electrical Requirements
Manual shut-off valve:
There is no connection necessary beyond
• The installer-supplied valve must be
plugging the unit into a polarized,
grounded, 120 volt, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit. A
minimum of 120VAC is required for proper
operation of gas ignition systems. DO NOT
use a GFI circuit. This circuit, however, MUST
be grounded and properly polarized. The
unit is equipped with 16-3 SPT2 power cord.
In Massachusetts: A "T" handle type
ote: If electrical power is not supplied or is
manual gas valve must be installed in
interrupted, the open top burners will have
gas supply line to the appliance.
to be lit manually with a match.

Gas Connection
• All heavy-duty, commercial-type cooking
The gas supply (service) line must be the
same size or greater than the inlet line of the
appliance. All cooktops use a 1/2" (1.3 cm)
I.D. NPT (Sch40) inlet. Sealant on all pipe
joints must be resistive to LP/Propane gas.
These cooktops are designed specifically for
natural gas or liquid propane (LP) gas. It is
shipped from the factory adjusted for use
• Manifold pressure should be checked with
with natural or propane (LP) gas. Before
beginning installation verify that the model is
compatible with the intended gas supply.
IMPORTANT: Any conversion required
must be performed by a qualified licensed
plumber or gas service company. The
proper conversion kit must be ordered
from your authorized service agency or

the appliance and regulator in the gas
stream and in a position where it can be
reached quickly in the event of an
emergency.
equipment must have a pressure regulator
on the incoming service line for safe and
efficient operation, since service pressure
may fluctuate with local demand. The
regulator supplied with the cooktops must
be installed before any gas connections
are made.
a manometer; natural gas requires 5.0"
WCP and LP/Propane requires 10.0" WCP.
Incoming line pressure upstream for the
regulator must be 1" WCP higher than the
manifold pressure in order to check the
regulator. The regulator used on this
cooktop can withstand a maximum input
pressure of 1/2 PSI (14.0" WCP). If
the line pressure is in excess of that
amount, a stepdown regulator will be
required.
the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system.
