SPECIFICATIONS
NOTICE
Local codes regarding installation vary greatly from one area to another. The National Fire Protection Association,
Inc. states in its NFPA 96 latest edition that local codes are the “authority having jurisdiction” when it comes to
installation requirements for equipment. Therefore, installations must comply with all local codes
Southbend reserves the right to change specifications and product design without notice. Such revisions do not
entitle the buyer to corresponding changes, additions, or replacements for previously purchased equipment.
This product is intended for commercial use only, not for household use.
CLEARANCES
There must be adequate clearance between the broiler and adjacent construction due to the heat generated by the
broiler. Clearance must also be provided for servicing and for operation.
The minimum clearance from non-combustible construction is 4” on the sides and 4" on rear (to permit combustion air
to enter the rear of the broiler).
Adequate clearance must be provided in front of the broiler for operation and cleaning.
