Cast iron radiants

Cast iron top grates flip for different score marks and set flat or sloped.
Burner per section

Easy cleanup
Burners lift out, a front grease trough drains to a removable drip pan, and the stainless front panel removes for service access.

Delivery and setup
- Inspect the crate for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt. Wells asks owners to report shipping damage promptly after delivery.
- Shipping weight is about 293 lb. Plan enough people or a lift to set it on the counter.
- Set it only on a firm, level, non-combustible surface. Concrete, tile, terrazzo or metal are recommended; metal or tile over combustible material may not meet code.
- A licensed gas technician must install the gas piping and do the first start-up and adjustment. Install under local codes, or the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1, and NFPA 96 for ventilation.
- Fit the separate gas pressure regulator that comes with the unit on the rear manifold pipe, flow arrow toward the appliance. Wells also calls for a drip leg ahead of the regulator and strongly recommends a manual shut-off valve.
