CG Contemporary Gas Cooktop Flush Installation
Topics:
- Installation hardware for CG Contemporary Gas Cooktops
- Is there a template for the countertop cutout?
- Can the cooktop be used as a template for the cutout dimensions?
- Adhesive installation kit, part number 826950
Answer:
A template is provided with the CG Contemporary Gas Cooktop.
- The template is used to mark the countertop for a flush installation.
- Installation specifications and the template require a mandatory gap around the perimeter of the cooktop to accommodate heat expansion.
- Without the gap, the countertop will be damaged when the cooktop is used.
- Never use the cooktop itself as a template.
- Installation kit, part number 826950, includes clear RTV silicone.
- RTV silicone for other Wolf cooktops is black.
- Wolf does not recommend use of any other sealant.
- Before applying the sealant, a granite or stone countertop recess may have a cloudy appearance where it has been tooled.
- The clear RTV silicone has a wetted look, providing an appearance more like the finished countertop.
