Alto-Shaam ASF-75G - Manual (Page 8)

V E N T I L A T I O N
1.
A single ASF-75G or ASF-60G auto-lift gas fryer
requires a minimum of 120 CFM make-up air for
natural gas and 48 CFM for propane gas. Kitchen
ventilation must be of sufficient capacity to prevent a
negative-pressure condition. DO NOT obstruct or
restrict ventilation nor the air flow required to support
combustion.
2. DO NOT
obstruct the flow of the exhaust flue at the
top rear of the fryer. It is especially critical that gas
supply piping and electrical support cord and/or
receptacle be routed away from the path of the hot
combustion fumes.
3.
This fryer cannot be direct vented.
4.
Install the fryer under a ventilation hood meeting all
applicable code requirements. Combustion fumes
must be vented in accordance with local, state, or
national codes.
An adequate ventilation system is required for commercial cooking equipment. Information may be obtained by writing
to the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269. When writing refer to NFPA No. 96.
D A N G E R
Installation, air adjustment and/or
service work must be in accordance
with all local codes and must be
performed by a certified service
technician qualified to work on
gas appliances.
C A U T I O N
To prevent malfunction or cause
negative back draft, DO NOT obstruct
exhaust flues or attach any flue
extension that will impede proper
burner operation.
