MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO
COMBUSTIBLES
Appliance And Vent Clearances
The appliance is approved with zero clearance to com-
bustible materials on all sides (as detailed in Table 5),
with the following exception: When the unit is installed
with one side flush with a wall, the wall on the other
side of the unit must not extend beyond the front edge
of the unit. In addition, when the unit is recessed, the
side walls surrounding the unit must not extend beyond
the front edge of the unit (see Figure 3).

u 4" clearance is required above the elbow
for installations that require an elbow at the
top of the unit and that ends in a horizontal
termination.
* Note: 3 in. (75 mm) above any horizontal vent component.
See Note u in Figure 8.
** Note: See Page 9, Step 1 for clearance requirements
to the nailing flange located at each side of the unit and
any screw heads adjacent to it.
*** Note: To ensure proper fit of the facade (required - sold
separately). The appliance base will need to be elevated
3/4" minimum above the floor to allow for the proper
fit of the facade (i.e. use 3/4" board as platform).
Shelf Height
To provide for the lowest possible shelf surface, the
venting attached to the top vent should be routed in a
way to minimize obstructions to the space above the
appliance. Do not insulate the space between the appli-
ance and the area above it (see Figure 8). The minimum
height from the base of the appliance to the underside
of combustible materials used to construct a utility shelf
in this fashion is shown in the table in Figure 8.
Wall Finishes / Surrounds / Mantels
Note: Combustible wall finish materials and/or surround
materials must not be allowed to encroach the area defined
by the appliance front face (black sheet metal). Never al-
low combustible materials to be positioned in front of or
overlapping the appliance front face.
Non-combustible materials, such as surrounds and other
appliance trim, may be installed on the appliance front face
with these exceptions: they must not cover any portion
of the glass or the air gaps above the glass door.
Vertical installation clearances to combustible mantels
vary according to the depth of the mantel. Mantels
constructed of non-combustible materials may be
installed above the appliance opening as outlined in
Figure 9.
NOTE: We recommend the use of high temperature
paint (rated 175° F or higher) on the underside of the
mantel.
