Wolf offers three sizes of gas cooktops to
choose from to address your clients‘ needs. The
30" (762) and 36" (914) cooktops are available in
classic and platinum stainless steel finish. The
15" (381) cooktop module comes in classic
stainless steel only.
Wolf recommends using 33" (838) cabinets with
the 30" (762) cooktop and 39" (991) cabinets
with the 36" (914) cooktop.
Specifications on the following pages provide
overall dimensions, countertop cut-out dimen-
sions and installation specifics for the three
different-sized cooktops. We have minimized
the information contained in the illustrations,
concentrating on the critical information you
need to plan your installation.
A Wolf L Series or E Series built-in single oven
may be installed below these cooktops. Wolf gas
cooktops are designed and agency approved for
installation with Wolf built-in ovens only. Also,
be aware of the depth of the cooktop when
planning for this installation.
Multiple cooktops and/or integrated modules
can be installed side by side. Refer to the coun-
tertop cut-out dimensions on page 55 when
planning for this installation.
These cooktops can accommodate a Wolf
cooktop hood, downdraft system or Pro ventila-
tion hood or hood liner. When installing a ventila-
tion hood, refer to the specific requirements of
the hood for the minimum dimension to the
countertop. Refer to pages 92–114 for ventilation
specifications.

The electric ignition system is a safe, convenient
and reliable way to provide ignition for the
burners. However, you need to make provisions
for a separate 120 V AC, 60 Hz power supply.
The service should have its own 15 amp circuit
breaker, and a grounded 3-prong receptacle
should be located within reach of the 6' (1.8 m)
power cord.
IMPORTANT NOTE: A ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) is not recommended and may
cause interruption of operation.
Wolf gas cooktops are designed to operate on
natural gas at 5" (12.5 mb) WC (water column)
pressure or LP (propane) gas at 10" (25 mb) WC
pressure. The minimum line pressure for natural
gas is 7" (17.5 mb) WC and 11" (27.4 mb) WC
for LP gas. The maximum gas supply pressure to
the regulator should never exceed 14" (34.9 mb)
WC, .5 psi (3.5 kPa). They are supplied with a
1 / 2 " NPT male gas connection at the right rear
corner on the bottom of the cooktop. The male
connector exits the unit straight down, and you
are supplied with a regulator with two female
connectors.
Locate electrical and gas supply within the
shaded area shown in the Installation
Specifications illustration for your model.
IMPORTANT NOTE: When an oven is installed
below the cooktop, it is recommended that the
electrical supply be placed in the base cabinet to
the right of the oven, unless you are using
cabinets deeper than 24" (610). Refer to pages
4–14 for additional specifications for built-in
ovens.
When a gas cooktop is installed above cabinets,
the gas and electrical placement is not critical.
A grounded outlet needs to be placed within 4'
(1.2 m) of the right rear of the cooktop.
You must follow all National Electrical Code and
gas regulations. In addition, be aware of local
codes and ordinances when installing your
services.
These cooktops are intended for indoor use.
