jurisdiction.
Clearance from Combustibles: Ensure your appliance remains at a distance of at least 14” from sides
& 16” from back from any
combustible material such as wood, gyprock, paper and plants. Do not store
combustible materials,
gasoline or flammable liquids or vapors around the appliance. The outdoor kitchen
structure itself should be constructed completely out of non-combustible materials.
Adequate Ventilation: Ensure there is adequate ventilation for both the appliance, grill cart and/or
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 grill, can affect the exhaust from escaping from the
grill. 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 an 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.
