INSTALLATION
WARNING: THESE PROCEDURES MUST BE FOLLOWED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL OR
GENERAL: The installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-Latest Edition. Canadian installation must comply with CAN/CGA-B149.1 Natural Gas
Installation Code, Code CAN/CGA-B149.2 Propane Installation Code. Canadian Electrical Code Parts I, or Local
Codes and CSA C22.1
These models are for operation on natural or propane gases.
The appliance should be connected ONLY to the type of gas for which it is equipped. All Southbend equipment is
adjusted at the factory, however, burner air shutters and pilot heights should be checked at installation and adjusted if
necessary. Check type of gas on serial plate located on interior bottom, at center towards front under grease pan.
For orifice sizes and pressure regulator settings refer to chart under "specifications."
An adequate gas supply is imperative. Undersized or low pressure lines restrict the volume of gas necessary for
satisfactory performance. A pressure regulator, which is provided with each unit, is set to maintain a 4" W.C.
manifold pressure for natural gas and a 10" W.C. manifold pressure for propane gas. However, to maintain these
conditions, the pressure on the supply line when all units are operating simultaneously, should not drop below 7"
W.C. for natural gas or 11" W.C. for propane gas.
All pipe joints should be tested for leaks with a soap and water solution before operating the unit. The test pressure
should not exceed 14" W.C.
CAUTION: THIS APPLIANCE AND ITS INDIVIDUAL SHUTOFF VALVE MUST BE DISCONNECTED FROM
THE GAS SUPPLY PIPING SYSTEM DURING ANY PRESSURE TESTING OF THAT SYSTEM AT
TEST PRESSURES IN EXCESS OF 1/2 PSIG (3.45 KPA).
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE ISOLATED FROM THE GAS SUPPLY PIPING SYSTEM BY CLOSING ITS
INDIVIDUAL MANUAL SHUTOFF VALVE DURING ANY PRESSURE TESTING OF THE GAS SUPPLY
PIPING SYSTEM AT TEST PRESSURES EQUAL TO OR LESS THAN 112 PSIG (3.45 KPA).
If applicable, the vent line from the gas appliance pressure regulator shall be installed to the outdoors in accordance
with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z233.1-Latest Edition.
Canadian installation must comply with CAN/CGA-B149.1 Natural Gas Installation Code, Code CAN/CGA-B149.2
Propane Installation Code.
EXHAUST FANS AND CANOPIES: Canopies are set over ranges, ovens, etc., for ventilation purposes. It is
recommended that a canopy extend 6" past appliance and be located 6'6" from the floor. Filters should be installed at
an angle of 45" or more with the horizontal. This prevents dripping grease and facilitates collecting the run-off grease
in a drip pan, usually installed with a filter. A strong exhaust fan tends to created a vacuum in the room and may
interfere with burner performance or may extinguish pilot flames. Fresh air openings approximately equal to the fan
area will relieve such vacuum. In case of unsatisfactory performance on any appliance, check wi th the exhaust fan in
the "OFF" position.
WALL EXHAUST FAN: Should be installed at least two feet above the vent opening at the top of the shelf or
backsplash.
NOTE: Due to the variety of problems encountered by outside weather conditions, venting by canopies or wall fans
is preferred over any type of direct venting.
INSTALLATION:
NOTICE: THERE MUST BE ADEQUATE CLEARANCE BETWEEN
UNITS AND COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION. CLEARANCE MUST
ALSO BE PROVIDED FOR SERVICING AND FOR OPERATION.
WARNING: ALL UNITS MUST BE INSTALLED IN SUCH A MANNER THAT THE
FLOW OF COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR ARE NOT OBSTRUCTED.
PROVISIONS FOR AN ADEQUATE AIR SUPPLY MUST ALSO BE PROVIDED. DO
NOT OBSTRUCT THE FRONT OF THE UNIT AS COMBUSTION AIR ENTERS
THROUGH THIS AREA.
