These documents contain instructions to securely and successfully install PITT® cooking into kitchen worktops. Furthermore, they indicate which level of craftsmanship is required. To make a warranty claim, installation procedures should be applied as described. PITT® cooking is exclusively intended for consumer use.

Worktop material suitable for PITT cooking

PITT® cooking can safely be built into:

• Compact board (eg. Trespa)
• Quartz Composite (eg. Caesarstone, Silestone)
• Concrete
• Glass
• Terrazzo
• Natural stone (eg. granite, marble)
• Stainless steel
• Ceramics (eg. Neolith)

1. PITT® cooking should never be installed into solid wood and worktops with an HPL top layer.

The minimum thickness of the core material is 5/32” (4 mm).

1. For Quartz composite, compact board and natural stone apply a minimum thickness of the core material (solid) of 25/64” (10 mm).
2. For the Top Side for all materials, a maximum thickness of 13/8” (35 mm) applies.
3. The bottom of the core material needs to be completely flat, to bring the heat conductor in full contact with the worktop.

Manufacturing recesses cut-outs

The guidelines of the kitchen manufacturer and/or the manufacturer of the kitchen worktop should always be strictly followed.

• The C-size for top-side models should be at least 131/32” (50 mm) (fig.1).
• The distance between the cutout and the sides (left or right) of the worktop should be at least 529/32” (150 mm).
• The insides of the recess(es) should be smooth and even (fig. 5). Irregularities can cause cracking (fig. 6).
• On the top and bottom of the recess(es) should be a facet of at least 3/64 x 3/64” (1×1 mm) applied (fig. 7).
• Adhesive connections and/or interconnections should never intersect the recess(es). These should have a distance of at least 927/32” (250 mm) to the recess(es) (fig. 7 and 8).

Installation worktop

The guidelines of the kitchen manufacturer and/or the manufacturer of the kitchen worktop should always be strictly followed.

1. The cabinets should be placed perfectly levelled (fig. 14 and 15).
2. In the case of bottom cabinets with a closed top, these should be the same size (+10 mm) as the PITT® cooking module. This is to bring the heat conductor in full contact with the core material.
3. The worktop should have full support on the left, right, front and back sides of the PITT cooking unit (fig. 16). This prevents tension in the worktop from the weight of the cooking unit. We advise to support the worktop with a ladder frame.
4. The distance between the kitchen worktop and the wall and/or cabinets should be at least 1/8” (3 mm) (fig. 17). This allows the material to expand.

Installation of PITT cooking into the worktop

Strictly follow the PITT® cooking installation instructions. The installation manual can be downloaded via www.pittcooking.com/downloads.

1. The PITT® cooking module should always be fully supported with the PITT® cooking support set to prevent the bending of the kitchen worktop (fig. 18 and 19).
2. In case of service, the PITT® cooking module should ALWAYS be able to be disassembled without disassembling the cabinets and/or kitchen worktop (fig. 20).
