The equipment area must be kept free and clear of combustible substances.
When installed, minimum clearance from combustible construction must be 1 inch (25 mm) at the left
side, 4 inches (102 mm) at the right side and 6 inches
(152 mm) at the rear. Minimum clearance from
noncombustible construction must be 0 inch (0 cm) at the left side, 4 inches (102 mm) at the right side
and 6 inches (152 mm) at the rear. The oven may be installed on combustible floors.
The installation location must allow adequate clearances for servicing and proper operation. There
must be 18 inches (457 mm) of clearance on the right side of the oven from any open flame.
The oven must be installed so that the flow of combustion and ventilation air will not be obstructed.
Adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber must be provided. Make sure there
is an adequate supply of air in the room to allow for combustion of gas at the oven burners.
Do not permit fans to blow directly at the oven. Wherever possible, avoid open windows next to the oven.
Avoid wall-type fans which create air cross currents within the room.
