Important Note: To assure sufficient air supply and circulation to the
condensing unit, a minimum clearance of 12" above the grill and 3" on each
side and back of the cabinet must be provided (see figure 1). If necessary,
special venting or air supply ducts must be installed by the installer for this purpose.
Do not at any time obstruct the grill area in front of the cabinet in any way, and
never place or store anything on top of the cabinet machine compartment. These
rules are essential for maximum cooling capacity and long life of refrigeration parts.

MINIMUM CLEARANCE DIMENSIONS
FLOOR LOADS
The floor at the final location site must be level, free of vibration and strong enough
to support the total combined weights of your new model plus the maximum
product load which might be placed into it. A fully loaded reach-in or roll-in model
may reach 2,000 - 3,000 pounds. To estimate the possible product load weight,
assume that each cubic foot of storage space weighs approximately 35 pounds.
Multiply 35 pounds by the amount of cubic feet in the cabinet and obtain the
product load weight. For example, a 20 cubic foot refrigerator can hold
approximately 700 pounds of product (35 x 20) and assuming the refrigerator itself
weighs 300 pounds, the total combined weight of cabinet and product is
approximately 1000 pounds. Therefore, the floor in this example must be capable of
supporting up to 1000 pounds.
