Design and Specification Package: To guarantee a safe and proper installation of PITT cooking, we kindly ask you forward this document onto any trade professionals that may be involved in your project. Thank you for considering PITT cooking. PITT® cooking gas hobs are handmade in Holland, which are beautifully integrated directly into your benchtop.

We would like to summarise the most important points of interest: 1. Design of cabinetry Make sure that the module always can be accessed, in the case of service, the PITT® cooking module should always be able to be disassembled without disassembling the cabinets and/or kitchen benchtop.

Manufacturing hole cut-outs for benchtop’s The guidelines of the kitchen manufacturer and/or the manufacturer of the kitchen benchtop should always be strictly followed. Fig. 1 The C-size for Top Side models should be at least 50 mm (fig.1). The distance between the cut out (Top Side and Front Side) and the sides (left or right) of the benchtop should be at least 150 mm.

Manufacturing hole cut-outs Fig. 4 Fig. 5 The insides of the holes should be smooth and even (fig. 4). Irregularities can cause cracking (fig. 5). Facet 1x1 mm Fig. 6 On the top and bottom of the recess(es) should be a facet of at least 1x1 mm be applied (with exception for Solid Surface) (fig.

Manufacturing hole cut-outs Fig. 9 The minimum clearance from a combustible surface shall be a 200 mm horizontal distance from the periphery of any gas burner (AS/NZS 5601.1). (fig. 9). If that horizontal clearance is less than 200 mm, that vertical surface must be protected by a non-combustible material for 150 mm above the cooktop surface across the entire length (depth, width).

Fig. 11 Glue an extra Solid Surface plate at all times at the bottom of the benchtop. This plate should have the same measurements as the PITT cooking heat conductor, and the same thickness as the benchtop (fig. 10). A range of minimum R=3 mm should be applied on the top and bottom of the recess(es). By sanding it smooth afterwards, possible cracks can be prevented (fig.

The cabinets should be placed perfectly levelled (fig. 14 and 15). Fig. 16 If there is a substrate under the benchtop the substrate should be cut to fit the PIT cooktop. The cutout should be the same size (+10 mm) as the PITT cooking module. This is to bring ®...

Fig. 17 Fig. 18 The benchtop should have full support on the left, right, front and back side of the PITT cooking unit (fig. 17). This prevents tension in the benchtop from the weight of the cooking unit. We advise to support the benchtop with a ladder frame.
