    1. Worktop material suitable for PITT® cooking

    1a. 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

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

    1b. The minimum thickness of the core material is 4 mm.


    For Quartz composite, compact board and natural stone applies a minimum
    thickness of the core material (solid) of 10 mm.
    For Top Side for all materials, a maximum thickness of 35 mm applies.
    For Front Side for all materials, a maximum thickness of 25 mm applies.

    ! The bottom of the core material needs to be completely flat, in order to bring the
    heat conductor in full contact with the worktop.

    3
    2. Manufacturing recesses (cut-outs)

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

    2a. The C-size for Top Side models should be at least 50 mm (fig.1).

    The distance between the cut out (Top Side and Front Side) and the sides (left or right) of the
    worktop should be at least 150 mm.

    2b. The C-size for Front Side models should be at all times 75 mm (fig.3)

    Front Side can be applied to the front side of the work top as well as the blind of the kitchen
    cabinet (whether indented or not). The center of the knobs measured from the top of the
    worktop is at least 50 and at most 100 mm (fig.4).

    2. Manufacturing recesses (cut-outs)

    Fig. 5 Fig. 6

    2c. The insides of the recess(es) should be smooth and even (fig. 5). Irregularities can
    cause cracking (fig. 6).

    Facet 1x1 mm

    2d. On the top and bottom of the recess(es) should be a facet of at least 1x1 mm be
    applied (fig. 7).

    Fig. 7 Fig. 8

    2e. Adhesive connections and/or interconnections should never intersect the recess(es). These
    should have a distance of at least 250 mm to the recess(es) (fig. 7 and 8).

    3. Installation worktop

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

    3a. The cabinets should be placed perfectly levelled (fig. 14 and 15).

    3b. 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.

    3c. The worktop should have full support on the left, right, front and back side 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.

    3d. The distance between the kitchen worktop and the wall and/or cabinets should be at least 3
    mm (fig. 17). This allows the material to expand.

    without disassembling the cabinets and/or kitchen worktop (fig. 20).
