36" gas updraft cooktops
For those who prefer gas heat for
cooking, the Monogram built-in
gas updraft cooktop offers the
cooking method of choice.
These cooktops are only 3" deep
and can be installed over cabinet
drawers.
Refer to “Installation Preparation” for
information on appropriate placement and
necessary clearances when planning installa-
tion.
Avoid placing cabinetry directly above
cooktop when possible.
If cabinetry is used above cooking surface:
–Use cabinets no more than 13" deep.
–Maintain 30" minimum clearance between
cooktop and unprotected cabinets directly
above cooktop.
–If clearance is less than 30", protect cabinet
bottoms with flame-retardant millboard at
least 1/4" thick, or gysum board at least
3/16" thick, covered with 28 gauge sheet
steel or .02" thick copper.

Design Information
Gas Updraft Cooktop
–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 countertop 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 cook-
top must comply with the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1, latest edition.
