FLUE CONNECTION
Make the flue connection as follows:
 Comply with Vapor Removal from Cooking Equipment, ANSI-NFPA
Standard #96 (latest edition), available from the National Fire Protection
Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.
 Locate the fryer under a hood with adequate connection to an exhaust
duct. The hood must extend 6” (15 cm) beyond fryer on both sides.
 Clearance above the fryer should be adequate for combustion byproducts
to be removed efficiently.
 An 18” (46 cm) minimum clearance should be maintained between the flue
vent and the filters of the hood venting system.
 Never make flue connections directly to the fryer.
 Do not obstruct the flow of the gases from the appliance. Proper air
balance should be maintained in the room.
 Ensure that your ventilation system does not cause a down draft at the fryer’s flue
opening. Down drafts will not allow the fryer to exhaust properly and will cause
overheating which may cause permanent damage. Damage caused by down
drafts will not be covered under equipment warranty. NEVER allow anything to
obstruct the flue of combustibles or ventilation exiting from the fryer flue. DO
NOT put anything on top of flue area.
