“Is there a minimum required clearance above this microwave?”

1-3 of 3 Answers

• Yes, microwaves need adequate air clearance on each side, the rear and the top to function properly. This allows good circulation for the intake and discharge air vents. The clearance requirements for this unit are listed below: -3" of clearance on both sides and the top -1" clearance in the rear -The front edge of the Microwave (measured at the door) should sit at least 3" or more back on the counter or shelf to avoid accidental tipping

• Microwave is 12 inches height. FYI Vent holes are on the left side. Therefore you can put it flush against the wall on the right side.
