4 EcoFry - General Information
The EcoFry system is an accessory to the LightFry oven that permits the oven to be operated in
compliance with UL’s specification for ventless cooking. The UL certification allows the oven to be
operated with no external vent hood over it, or a hood that is sized solely for heat extraction. A hood that is
equipped for greasy vapors is not required.
The EcoFry is a catalytic system that converts the greasy vapors coming from cooking food into carbon
dioxide and water vapor. It has an integral heater element to provide the energy for the conversion reaction
that maintains the catalyst at the proper temperature independently of the oven’s set cooking temperature.

5 Recommended Installation Clearances
Be sure to comply with the clearances recommended in the Lightfry installation manual for areas not
covered in this manual.
Keep a minimum clearance of 12 inches [305 mm] on the left side from any heat source. If possible do not
place any heat sources on the left side of the oven.
Keep a minimum clearance of 2 inches [50 mm] for both the back and right side of the unit.
IMPORTANT! The back side clearance should never be less than 2 inches [50 mm]. Narrower clearances
will restrict natural airflow around the unit and could compromise the electrical cabinet components.
It is recommended to increase the left/right clearance for an easy serviceability when possible. Please note
that should the EcoFry require service it will require a minimum clearance of 12 inches to open the control
panel access door.
Do not install or place any object on top of the unit.
Do not connect a ventilation system directly to the exhaust pipe, allow a minimum distance of 4 inches [100
mm] between the ventilation system and the unit.
IMPORTANT! Be aware of the hot air and steam vapors leaving the exhaust pipe during the cooking
process.

7 EcoFry –Connections to Lightfry Oven
The following steps will guide you through the installation of the EcoFry onto your LightFry oven.
7.1 Mechanical Connections
Before setting the unit on top of the Lightfry oven place the gasketing material around the oven’s exhaust
chimney as seen below:
Remove the indicated screws from the Lighfry oven and retain them for re-installation
Set the EcoFry on top of the Lightfry making sure that the inlet tube of the EcoFry slides over the exhaust
chimney of the oven.
Align the EcoFry so that the holes for the removed screws are visible and then re-install the removed
screws to secure the EcoFry to the oven.
If a gap exists between the top of the oven and the flanged foot on the front of the EcoFry, loosen the
screws on the flange foot and press downward on the flange to close the gap. Re-tighten the screws.
