• Refer to “Installation Preparation”, found in
installation instructions packed with product,
for information on appropriate placement and
necessary clearances when planning installation.
• Avoid placing cabinetry directly above cooktop
when possible.
• If cabinetry is used above the cooking surface:
–Use cabinets no more than 13” deep.
–Maintain 30” minimum clearance between
the cooktop and unprotected cabinets directly
above the cooktop.
–If clearance is less than 30”, protect cabinet
bottoms with flame-retardant millboard at least
1/4” thick, or gypsum board at least 3/16” thick,
covered with 28 gauge sheet steel or .02”
thick copper.
–Clearance between cooktop and protected
cabinetry must not be less than 24”.
–An exhaust hood that projects at least 5”
beyond front of cabinets can reduce risk of
burns caused by reaching over heated
surface units.
–Working areas adjacent to the cooktop should
have 18” minimum clearance between cooktop
and cabinet bottom.
• Use the Monogram gas updraft cooktop with any
36” or wider exhaust hood, if desired; no special
ventilation is required.
• Installation must conform with local codes. In the
absence of local codes, the gas cooktop must
comply with the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1, latest edition.
