• It should be about six inches. Its for adequate ventilation and space for opening the door.

• Freezers and refrigerators are heat pumps. That means it transfers heat from the interior to its exterior, into the room. If you've ever stood near the exterior of a window air conditioner, you'd see how much heat. If you block the back and sides, heat is not released and the freezer will have to work harder or not work at all.
