Hi there! For the Frigidaire FRQG1721AV, it’s important to allow proper ventilation for efficient cooling. The recommended clearances are 1 inch at the top and back and ⅜ inch on each side. Since this model is 69⅞ inches tall, a 70-inch space will fit but leave almost no room for airflow. Ideally, allow at least 1 inch of space above the fridge to ensure proper ventilation and performance. - Reed
