Recommendations regarding the construction and fitting of
a base when the installation requires an integrated appliance
to be raised
Where the appliance has been raised by mounting onto a wooden base pro-
vided by the installer. The material used to construct the base should have a
non slip surface, be water repellent and if possible be one solid piece.
If it is not possible to
use one solid piece, due
to the additional height
required, ensure that
any additional strips of
timber are glued and
screwed to the under-
side of the base (see Fig.
F).
Position the base into
the recess with its front
edge as far forward as
the adjoining plinth line
will allow. The reason
for placing the base in
this position is to allow
a small strip of bead-
ing to be fitted in
front of the appliance
feet.
Fix the base firmly to the
floor using four appropriate
countersunk screws
(see Fig. H).
