Q: QuestionWhen this this model is raised from the low 32.5" height to 35", is that done via the leveling legs, and if so, what masks the gap at the floor?

• A:Answer The metal trim that comes with the dishwasher will cover the gap. However, I found it still needed a piece of 3/4" trim above the unit. If possible, I'd recommend a 1 1/2" trim above and not crank the legs to their maximum.

Q: QuestionWILL THIS BE INSTALLED AT THE SAME TIME THAT IT IS DELIVERED?

Asked 1 month ago by Art1.

• A:Answer Thank you for reaching out regarding your Frigidaire 18" compact built-in dishwasher. Typically, delivery and installation are scheduled separately, as installation requires a qualified technician to connect the dishwasher to your plumbing and electrical supply safely. Some retailers or service providers may offer delivery and installation as a combined service, but this depends on the store and scheduling availability. - Jessica
