Adequate Ventilation: Ensure there is adequate ventilation for both the appliance and
island cavity.
This is required not only for proper combustion, but also to prevent gas build up. While the amount of
venting required varies on a case by case basis, consult with your local licensed professional and local
code for adequate venting requirements. Keep the ventilation openings of the enclosure free and clear
from any debris.
Firm Level Surface: Use your appliance only on a firm level surface. This appliance is not designed for
recreational vehicles, and should not be installed on a boat or marine craft.
Protection from Weather: Keep the appliance protected from adverse weather, including rain and winds.
Wind, particularly coming into the rear of the griddle, can affect the exhaust from escaping from
the griddle. This can back up the heat behind the control panel potentially creating a gas leak,
damage to the product, and injury.
Maintenance Access: When your appliance is installed, you should be able to access the gas supply
line including the gas piping or hose, gas regulator, gas cylinder and any shut off valves. Allow clear
access to the entire gas supply hose and regulator.
Partial Enclosures: Many backyards have areas that are partially closed off, such as balconies and
pergolas. In some cases, it is hard to decide whether these partially enclosed areas should be classified
as indoor areas, particularly in terms of permanent (non-closable) ventilation. Consult the AHJ (Authority
Having Jurisdiction) or local contractor of any uncertainty. This outdoor cooking gas appliance shall not
be located in as indoor application.
. When installing a Blaze Appliance under an overhead construction:
o
A minimum 6 foot of clearance is required between the countertop and the overhead construction.
o
When installed under a combustible overhead construction, the area above the Blaze appliance must
be covered with a vent hood. The vent hood must provide protection for the combustible overhead
construction.
o
It is imperative a Blaze appliance is not installed under unprotected combustible overhead
construction.
o
When installed under overhead non-combustible construction, a vent hood is still recommended. Gas
appliances produce a large amount of smoke. The covered area should be properly ventilated.
o
When using a vent hood, the area above the cooking surface of the griddle must be covered with a
vent hood larger than the cooking area of the griddle, and with a minimum of 1200 CFM for proper
outdoor application.
