INSTALLATION
WARNING: FOR ANY TYPE OF INSTALLATION, THIS UNIT
MUST NOT BE
IF THIS BROILER IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED, A FIRE MAY RESULT. TO REDUCE
THE RISK OF FIRE, FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
TO THE INSTALLER: Please contact local building or fire officials concerning any
installation restrictions or need for inspection of the broiler installation.
The broiler, when installed, must conform to all local and national solid fuel burning
equipment codes.
This cooking equipment is to be provided with an exhaust hood tested for compliance with
the standard for ventilation control and fire protection of commercial cooking operations,
NPFA 96, or with the requirements in the standard for exhaust hoods for commercial
cooking equipment, UL 710.
WARNING: THE BROILER IS NOT TO BE ON CASTERS.
1. Uncrate the unit and put into place.
2. For combustible or noncombustible surface installations, follow clearances and instructions
specified in this manual. Unit should not be installed next to a Deep Fat Fryer.
3. Adequate combustion/make-up air must be provided to replace the air that is being
exhausted by the hood system.
4. Only steel baffle-type grease extractors are to be used.
5. DO NOT USE MESH-TYPE FILTERS.
INSTALLED OR MAINTAINED AT LESS THAN THE MINIMUM CLEARANCES.
The unit must be installed on a noncombustible floor and below a noncombustible ceiling only.
For purposes of this manual, “Noncombustible Material” means consisting entirely of brick,
concrete, cinder block, or metal. For more details, refer to NFPA Code ANSI Z223.1-1992,
NFPA S4-1992.
Installation instruction for converting combustible to modified combustible surfaces using
Marinite board, steel studs and stainless steel sheets are as follows.
• Metal studs must run vertically, approximately 20 inch on centers. The Marinite board must
terminate 1 inch beyond the metal studs at all joints behind the unit (see Figure 1).
P/N 24-141 REV A 7/00 Page 4
Insert Figure 1
a. The Marinite board to be used is Marinite Type I, ½ inch thick. It is to cover the back
and side walls of installation, and extends a minimum of 24 inches beyond each side of
the unit. It must start 6 inches above the floor and continue up into the attic space. It
must be ventilated along the bottom and top.
b. The Marinite board is to be covered by stainless steel. The stainless steel sheets must
connect with a joint that faces outward, away from the wall. The stainless steel must not
wrap around the edges of each Marinite panel at its joint (see Figure 3).
The side wall terminations of the Marinite must be fully protected by the stainless. The
stainless, in this location only, is to wrap around the edge of the Marinite and continue to
the wall (90° bend over the edge and continue to the wall).
Note that in some area, the health codes may not allow the 6-inch opening along bottom.
In such cases, it will be acceptable to extend the stainless steel protector totally to the
floor, but the top of Marinite wall must remain open for ventilation.
1. The ceiling is to be noncombustible (as defined by NFPA 54, National Fuel Gas Code) or, if
the unit is to be installed in an island, the noncombustible ceiling must extend a minimum of
4 feet beyond all sides of the unit.
2. The base of the hood is to be located a maximum of 48 inches above the top of the unit. It
must be a Type I hood and installed per the Uniform Mechanical Code. The hood can only
serve the wood-burning appliance. Per the NFPA, the minimum clearance to the face of the
filters shall be 48 inches as measured from the cooking surface.
