Positioning the cooktop

in a cabinet at least 30" wide.
The exhaust vent beneath the cooktop must be
located between wall studs or floor joists so that the
ductwork may be installed properly.
At least 6" must be allowed between side edges of
the cooktop and adjacent walls.

Avoid placing cabinets above the cooktop unit, if
possible, in order to reduce the hazards caused by
reaching over heated surface units. If cabinets are
placed over the cooktop, the risks can be reduced by
installing a range hood that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom of the
cabinets.
If cabinetry is used above the cooktop, allow a
minimum 30" clearance between the cooking surface
and the bottom of any unprotected cabinet.
If the clearance between the cooktop and the
cabinetry is less than 30", the cabinet bottom must
be protected with flame retardant millboard at least
1/4" thick, covered with 28 gauge sheet steel or
0.020" thick copper. Clearance between the cooktop
and the protected cabinetry MUST NEVER BE LESS
THAN 24."
EXCEPTION: Installation of a listed microwave oven
or cooking appliance over the cooktop shall conform
to the installation instructions packed with that
appliance.
A 15" minimum must be kept from the side edge of
the cooktop to the bottom of any cabinet not directly
above the cooktop. If the clearance is less than 15",
adjacent cabinets should be at least 6" from the side
edge of the cooktop.
