3 - INSTALLATION
GENERAL
•Installation must conform to local codes
or in the absence of local codes, with the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.
•Canada: Installation shall be made in
accordance with CAN 1-B1491.1 & 2
“Installation Codes for Gas Burning
Appliances and Equipment” or local
codes.
•A remote circuit breaker or fuse, installed
in main power supply, should be located
in a path of exit and clearly identified.
•A gas shut-off valve, installed in the gas
supply line, should be located in a path
of exit and clearly identified.
•DO NOT obstruct flow of combustion
and ventilation air.
•The unit and its individual shut-off 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.
LOCATION
For convenience and speed, location of the
unit should be given careful consideration.
If possible, locate the unit so the flow of
cooked product is in a straight line from storage, in and out of the unit and to the customer.
•Unit must be restrained to prevent tipping and strain on electrical and gas
connections. This can be done by
installing unit in a battery of appliances,
in an alcove , or with adequate ties.
•DO NOT install unit where traffic areas
are on either side or in back of the unit.
CLEARANCE
•DO NOT obstruct open area around bottom of unit at the front, back, and sides
which would restrict combustion air to
the burner’s. Provisions must be provided for adequate air supply.
•Required Clearances:
•The unit must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less
than 1/2 psig.
•Keep area around unit clear of all combustible materials.
•Consult your local Broaster Company
representative for gas conversions and
installations exceeding 2000 feet above

LEVELING
Adjust feet to level entire unit.
VENTILATION
Exhaust hood should comply with ANSI/
NFPA #96 or national, state, and local
codes. All units must be under an adequate
power exhaust hood for ventilation of cooking vapors and products of combustion.
Precautions should be taken in the design of
the exhaust hood to avoid interference with
operation of the unit. Consult a local ventilation company for fire suppression, design,
and installation of a hood.
3.Hood Size: The overhead canopy
type hood should be sized to completely cover the equipment it is
designed to ventilate plus an overhang
of at least six inches (6”) on all sides of
equipment not immediately adjacent to
walls or other construction extending
above the cooking surface. Non-canopy, prefabricated “backshelf” type
hoods should be sized according to the
manufacturers specifications.
4.Exhaust Air Volume (Minimum):
Canopy hood open on all four sides:
1800 cu. ft./minute. Canopy hood
open on three sides or less: 1200 cu.
ft./minute.
WARNING: DO NOT extend the
exhaust flue of any unit. Doing so may
cause a negative back draft causing malfunction and interference with burner operation and improper exhausting of cooking
vapors.
General Requirements:
1.Exhaust hood must conform to applicable national, state, and local codes.
2.It is recommended that requirements of
the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), Standard No. 96 be followed for the design, installation, and

devices, exhaust ducts, dampers, air
moving devices, auxiliary equipment,
and fire extinguishing equipment for
the exhaust system and the cooking
equipment used therewith in commercial, industrial, institutional, and similar
cooking applications.
5.Exhaust Air Velocity: All exhaust
ducts should be sized to provide an air
velocity in the ducts of at least 1500 ft./
minute.

INSTALLING REMOVABLE PARTS
Drip Pan:
WARNING: Operating broiler without
baffles installed and cooking oil in drip
pan could result in fire and possible personal injury.
