Q: QuestionHow much clearance do I need from the bottom of this microwave to the top of my electric smooth top range?

Asked 5 years ago by Suz.

• A:Answer Found this when I was looking to replace our microwave - "The National Kitchen and Bath Association recommends that the bottom of the microwave should be no higher than 54 inches above the floor, which would allow for 18 inches of clearance between the microwave and the typical cooktop height of 36 inches. Some manufacturers allow smaller clearances." Although the bottom of our microwave is exactly at 54", our glass-top stove sits slightly higher so the clearance is 17". Builder installed the original microwave at that clearance, and we have not had any problems.

Q: QuestionJust installed JVM6175SKSS. The microwave is heating/working, but is really loud/screeching. Sounds similar to our 13 year old GE over the range microwave when it stopped heating. Is this loud sound expected, or there is something wrong with it?

• A:Answer We put same model in less than a month ago. Do not have loud screeching. If it sounds loud, then there is probably something wrong. Who installed? The flap on the exhaust vent may not be opening if it was not installed correctly. I can imagine that would make some noise.

Q: QuestionCan this microwave be installed over a counter with 12 inch cabinets? Where does it get bracketed to? Back wall and cabinet above?

Asked 5 years ago by Anonymous.

This question was asked about the related product: GE - 1.7 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave with Sensor Cooking and Defrost - Stainless Steel

• A:Answer Our upper cabinets are 14 inches tall and, with the microwave installed, we still have 15 and 1/2 inches between the bottom of the microwave and the stove. The brackets are attached to the cabinets above--not the back wall. A 2 and 1/2 inch hole was cut into the bottom of one of the cabinets so that the microwave could be plugged into an outliet that is inside the cabinet, on the backwall (a hole was cut out of the cabinet to get to the outlet).

These two model numbers are the same microwave. If you are replacing your old microwave with the same model, then it's still recommended to use the new hardware that came with the unit to install the microwave. If you bought a different model, it would have came with a new kit as well that you will have to use to install the microwave. This includes using all of the new hardware that came with it.
