“Have a new 17" Built in Double oven. The floor below the bottom oven is warm to hot when I use the upper oven. I have not used the lower oven. Should the oven heat the floor up? Thank you.”

The "vent" that directs the heat out of your oven(s) is at the bottom of the lower oven which keeps heat from building up inside your cabinetry The "vent" has a flange that causes the flow of warm air downward. Depending on how far from the floor this vent is would affect how warm the floor would get. The only concern I would have is whether or not the surface of your floor has a top layer with a coating that could blister or warp over time if it got too hot. You might want to ask your oven installer if the ovens are too close to your flooring.
