- 5" stainless flue riser directs heat into your hood system for a cooler kitchen.
• Range must be placed under a vented hood in a non-combustible location.
• Avoid cookware larger than 12" diameter on the front hot-top section to prevent damage to the front rail.
• Do not use sheet pans to cover the charbroiler while burners are on; reflected heat can cause irreparable damage.
