Installation & Setup (cont.)
Seal the Appliance to the Floor
The following procedure describes sealing a non-mobile appliance
to the floor for NSF standards. This may not be required for your
application.
Procedure
1. Position the appliance in its final installation location. Be sure
to leave adequate clearance between the back and sides per
"Clearances" (pg. 9) to ensure proper ventilation.
2. Level the appliance front-to-back and side-to-side. See
“Level the Appliance” (pg. 17).
3. Draw an outline of the appliance base on the floor.
4. Raise and block the front side of the appliance.
5. Apply a bead of NSF-approved sealant (see list below) to the
floor, 1/2" (13 mm) inside the front part of the outline drawn in
step 4. The bead of sealant must be heavy enough to seal the
entire appliance surface when the appliance is lowered on top
of the sealant.
6. Raise and block the rear of the appliance.
7. Apply sealant to the floor on the other three sides, as outlined
in step 5.
8. Examine the appliance to ensure that it is sealed to the floor
around the entire perimeter.
