D: Plumbing Connections
:
Water and waste piping and connections shall comply with the international
Plumbing Code 2003, International Code Council (ICC), or to the Uniform
Plumbing Code 2003, International Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO)
Plumbing connections must comply with applicable sanitary, safety and plumbing
codes and provide adequate backflow protection to comply with applicable
federal, state and local codes. A 100 mesh strainer must be installed
immediately upstream of a check valve-type back-flow preventer.
Each oven deck is equipped with a “Steam Pod” located behind the access panel
rear of the oven(s); drains are required for these steam pods. Note: this
appliance has atmospheric steam generation and does not create any positive
pressure in the oven chamber or in the steam generator pods.
Water to this appliance should be treated to prevent build-up of minerals and
rust in the steam pods and water system.
The bottom deck oven is supplied from the factory with a ½”
NPT ball valve and “Y” strainer. The water supply connection is
made at the ½” ball valve. The supply connection should be
made with a suitable flexible line to allow the oven to be
moved in and out of position.
Subsequent decks will need to have the
water lines linked together using the
supplied braided hoses, 10mm copper
tubing, and compression fittings.
Inspect final connections for leaks.
