the absence of local codes, with either the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Natural
Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or
Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2.
•
Prevent grill combustion products from being drawn
into a building through fresh air inlets: The venting
system of other than a direct-vent appliance must
terminate at least 4 feet (1.2m) below, 4 feet (1.2m)
horizontally from, or 1 foot (305mm) above any door,
window or gravity air inlet into any building. The bot-
tom of the vent terminal must be located at least 12
inches (305mm) above grade.
•
A MINIMUM clearance of 10 inches (254mm) must
be maintained, above the countertop material, from
all combustible vertical materials on the sides and
behind the outdoor grill chassis and canopy.
•
On all models except OBSB162, a MINIMUM clear-
ance of 1 1/4 inches (32mm) must be maintained,
above the countertop material, from all non-combus-
tible vertical materials on the sides and behind the
outdoor grill chassis and canopy.
•
On model OBSB162, a MINIMUM clearance of
2 inches (51mm) must be maintained, above the
countertop material, from all non-combustible vertical
materials on the sides and behind the chassis.
•
A MINIMUM clearance of 1/4 inch (6mm) must be
maintained, inside the base enclosure below the
countertop material, from all vertical surfaces on the
sides of the appliance, except on model OBSB162.
On model OBSB162 a minimum clearance of 1/4
inch (6mm) must be maintained in back and 1/16
inch on the sides.
•
A MINIMUM clearance of 3/4 inch (19mm) must be
maintained, from the bottom of the control panel to
any material for ventilation purposes. Failure to do
so will block air flow through the outdoor grill and
may cause carbon monoxide poisoning or improper
operation.
