The location chosen for the appliance must permit the
provision of a satisfactory flue termination.
The location must also provide adequate space for servicing
and air circulation around the range.
Should the installation of the appliance be in an unusual
location or restricted space, special procedures may be
necessary and the following current codes give detailed guide
lines on this aspects:
U.S.: The National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.
1-latest edition.
Canada: The CAN/CGA B -149 installation codes.
The following notes are intended to give general guidance.
1. The range must be installed so that the flue terminal is
exposed to the external air and terminal clearances comply
with:
In U.S.: The National Fuel Gas Codes ANSI Z223 1-latest
edition Section 7.7.
In Canada: CAN/CGA-B149 installation code.
2. Termination should be on a clear expanse of wall, the
terminal being preferably not less than 355mm (14in) away
from a corner, recess of projection.
3. A hole must be cut through an outside wall as indicated in
Fig. 6 with the hole rising from inside to outside face
of wall.
DO NOT install the terminal:-
(a) Within 300mm (12in) measured vertically, from the
bottom of an openable window, air vent or any other
ventilating opening.
(b) Within 300mm (12in) above adjacent ground level.
(c) Within 600mm (24in) of any surface facing the
terminal.
(d) Within 355mm (14in) (U.S.) or
300mm (12in) (Canada) below eaves or balcony.
The direct vent terminal must be protected by a terminal
protective guard installed over the terminal to prevent
unauthorised contact with hot terminal surfaces.
See Fig. 8.
4. All jointing faces providing primary air and flue exhaust
paths, must be sealed in an airtight fashion, with particular
emphasis on the following locations:
(a) Air intake tube joints to be sealed with silicone adhesive

For special lengths up to 610mm (24in), consult your local Aga
Distributor.
WALL TILING
If the cooker is to stand in a recess or against a wall which is
to be tiled, in no circumstances should the tiles overlap the
range top plate.
