MOBILE HOMES
The installation of a range designed for mobile home
installation must conform with the Manufactured Home
Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part
3280 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home
Construction and Safety, Title 24 HUD, Part 280) or, when
such standard is not applicable, the Standard for
Manufactured Home Installations 1982 (Manufactured
Home Sites, Communities and Set-Ups), ANSI
A225. l-latest edition, or with local codes.
LOCATING THE RANGE
Place range in a well lit area. Do not set range over holes
in the floor or other locationswhere it may be subject to
strong drafts. Any opening in the wall behind the range
and in the floor under the range should be sealed. Make
sure the flow of combustion or ventilation air is not
obstructed.

"A" = 30 inches minimum clearance between the top of

not less than 1/4-inch thick flame-retardant millbeard
covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel,

aluminum, or 0.020-inch thick copper.
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over
heated surface units, cabinet storage space located
above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet
storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by
installing a range hood that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
