• 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 gysum board at least
3/16" thick, covered with 28 gauge sheet
steel or .02" thick copper.

* If a countertop backsplash is used, it must be constructed
of non-combustible materials (such as masonry, ceramic,
granite, stainless steel, etc.) whenever the cutout to rear
vertical surface is less than 3-3/8".
IMPORTANT: Always maintain 2-3/4" Min. clearance from
cutout to front edge of countertop.
–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.
• Use the Monogram gas stainless steel cook-
top with any 36" or wider exhaust hood with
350 CFM or greater air flow rating.
• Installation must conform with local codes.
In the absence of local codes, the gas cook-
top must comply with the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1, latest edition.
