Step 4: Check Clearances and Ventilation
Select a rm, level location for your fryer. Leave clearance, whenever possible, so that access from the rear is
possible to permit cleaning. If the unit is to be set on non-combustible ooring, such as a concrete slab, 3 inches
minimum toe room must be provided to prevent restriction of the air opening in the bottom of the unit.
WARNING
There must be adequate clearance between fryer(s) and construction. Clearance must also be provided in front for
servicing and for operation.
Mininum Clearances:
From Combustible Construction
Sides 6
Rear 6
ALL AVANTCO FLOOR FRYERS SHALL BE INSTALLED WITH AT LEAST A 16 INCH SPACE BETWEEN THE FRYER AND SURFACE
FLAMES FROM ADJACENT EQUIPMENT.
No additional side and rear clearance is required for service as the fryer is serviceable from the front.
WARNING
Improper ventilation can result in personal injury or death. Ventilation that fails to properly remove ue products
can cause headaches, drowsiness, nausea, or could result in death.
Unit Must be installed under a ventilation Hood.
All units must be installed in such a manner that the ow of combustion and ventilation air is not obstructed.
Provisions for adequate air supply must also be provided. Do NOT obstruct the bottom front of the unit, as
combustion air enters through this area. Be sure to inspect and clean the ventilation system according to the
ventilation equipment manufacturer’s instructions.
Due to the variety of problems that can be caused by outside weather conditions, venting by canopies or wall
fans is preferred over any type of direct venting. It is recommended that a canopy extend 6" past the appliance
and the bottom edge be located 6'6" from the oor. Filters should be installed at an angle of 45° or more from
the horizontal. This position prevents dripping of grease and facilitates collecting the run-o grease in a drip pan,
unusually installed with a lter. A strong exhaust fan tends to create a vacuum in the room and may interfere
with burner performance or may extinguish pilot ames. Fresh air openings approximately equal to the fan area
will relieve such a vacuum. In case of unsatisfactory performance on any appliance, check the appliance with the
exhaust fan in the “OFF” position. Do this only long enough to check equipment performance, then turn hood back
on and let it run to remove any exhaust that may have accumulated during the test.
The exhaust fan should be installed at least 2 feet above the vent opening at the top of the fryer.
Make sure all ventilation meet local code requirement
This unit is not intended to be connected directly to an outside ue.
