The cooktop may be installed directly to
existing base cabinets.
The cooktop CANNOT be installed
directly adjacent to sidewalls, tall cabinets,
tall appliances, or other side vertical

combustible surfaces above the
36” (91.4 cm) counter height.
Within the 6” (15.2 cm) side clearance to
combustible vertical surfaces above
36” (91.4 cm), the maximum wall cabinet
depth must be 13” (33.0 cm) and wall
cabinets within this 6” (15.2 cm) side
clearance must be 18” (45.7 cm) above
the 36” (91.4 cm) high countertop.

Clearance Dimensions (Wood/Composite Overlay)
The bottom of a standard hood should be
30” (76.2 cm) min. to 36” (91.4 cm) max.
above the countertop. This would typically
result in the bottom of the hood being
66” (167.6 cm) to 72” (182.9 cm) above the
floor. Refer to the rangehood installation
instructions for additional information. These
dimensions provide for safe and efficient
operation of the hood.
