DESIGN & INSTALLATION GUIDE

Extended Height Grille for Built-In

Extended Height Grille 2

Extended Height Grille

This design feature involves potentially hazardous

elements consisting of large, heavy panels located

overhead. It is the responsibility of the designer to

specify panel support components suitable for this use

and the installer to use proper workmanship during

construction. Sub-Zero cannot be liable for custom

applications beyond its control.

O ERLAY AND FLUSH INSET

All built-in overlay and flush inset models have the option

of extending the height of the decorative grille panel. This

application is used when the kitchen design calls for a

decorative panel taller than the standard grille for an 84"

(2134) finished height or the optional grille for an 88" (2235)

finished height. With an extended height grille panel, the

finished height of the unit can be 88" (2235) or more to

match surrounding cabinetry.

The decorative grille panel and support hinges are

provided by the customer. The factory-supplied grille

frame is fitted with a functional panel that serves as an air

baffle. The grille frame also acts as a support to hold the

decorative panel open for condenser cleaning, water filter

replacement and service.

Decorative panel and grille frame are supported by two

separate hinge systems and are only connected by a cleat

when open and a catch when closed.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Throughout this guide, dimensions in

parentheses are millimeters unless otherwise specified.

Built-In Design Options

O ERLAY

O ERLAY PANELS

To coordinate with the decor, custom panels are designed

to overlay the grille and doors of the built-in unit. These

custom panels can be combined with unique hardware for

design flexibility.

FLUSH INSET

FLUSH INSET PANELS

To blend in more seamlessly with surrounding cabinetry,

panels can be flush inset. This design option allows for

custom grille and door panels to be completely flush with

surrounding cabinetry.

SIDE VIEW

AIR FLOW

Allow for at least 1/2"(13) space on all four sides of the

grille panel for proper air flow to the refrigeration system.

For overlay models, this is behind the outer grille frame.

For flush inset models, this is around the sides, top and

bottom of the decorative grille panel.

CABINETRY

AIR FLOW

Space must be maintained between decorative grille panel

and surrounding cabinetry for air flow.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If space is not provided directly above

the top of the grille panel, it must be provided above the

upper molding of the elevation as shown in the inset

illustration.

INSTALL PANEL

A1/4"(6) thick functional panel must be installed in the

inner grille frame (the part that flips up) to prevent warm

air discharge from short-circuiting back into the system.

Extended Height Grille 6

Specify the customer-supplied hinging system consistent

with cabinetry and with sufficient capacity for the weight

of the decorative grille panel.

IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that refrigeration compo-

nents must be removed for service, the standard grille

frame will need to be removed first for sufficient access to

the machine compartment. To avoid an unsupported load,

the decorative panel will need to be removed from the

cabinetry first.

Field install a cleat to the back side of the decorative grille

panel to hold the flip-up inner grille frame in position when

it is raised. Follow dimensions in the inset illustration for

the 10" (254) long cleat. For location of the cleat, also refer

to the illustration on the following page.

For a dual installation, use two cleats.

HINGING SYSTEM—INSTALL CLEAT

SIDE VIEW

The cleat must include a lip as shown, to prevent

unintentional separation of decorative grille panel and

grill frame.

The cleat must be located to the left of a line 3" (76) to the

right of the center of the built-in unit, to clear the system

fan shroud.

Cut a rectangular clearance hole in the functional grille

panel to allow the cleat to extend through when the deco-

rative grille panel is closed.

Install a customer-supplied catch between the back of the

decorative grille panel and the functional grille panel to

prevent noise caused by vibration.

to be recessed into the functional grille panel and maybe

partially into the decorative grille panel.
