Safety distance from the wall covering
If a wall covering is installed, a minimum safety distance must be maintained be-
tween the countertop cut-out and the covering, since high temperatures can dam-
age these materials.
If the covering is made of a combustible material (such as wood), the distance be-
tween the countertop cut-out and the wall covering must be a minimum of
2" (50mm).
For coverings made of non-combustible materials (such as metal, marble, granite,
ceramic tiles) the minimum safety distance between the countertop cut-out and
the wall covering must be 2“ (50 mm) minus the thickness of the covering. For ex-
ample: thickness of wall covering 2” (50mm) - ⁹/₁₆“ (15mm) = minimum safety dis-
tance 1⁷/₁₆” (35mm).
