The recommended installation clearance spacing for the sides, top and rear of the ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 22.8 Cu. Ft. French Door Counter-Depth Refrigerator, Model # LFCC22426S are just to ensure that you have adequate airflow around the refrigerator. When a refrigerator is too close to your walls or overhead cabinets, its cooling capacity can be impaired resulting in increased electricity bills. However, the height of 69 3/4" that you are concerned about should not be an issue. That height is the height to the top of the door hinges. Unless you have custom upper cabinets that are deeper, Upper/Wall cabinets are typically 12" deep and can also be (also 15", 18", 24", so the hinges will not be a hindrance at all. The refrigerator has a height of 68 3/8" to the top of the case which is the height that matters when determining if it will fit into your cutout space. That means you will have a clearance of 1 5/8" when you install this refrigerator in your cutout space which is more than adequate...^IFV
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.We just installed this fridge and it measures 70" to the very top. You will need to ask them directly if the feet can be adjusted lower. 36" in width is plenty for ventilation. The unit is performing very well. We do not use ice in everything so we have not hooked up the water and have turned off the icemaker as these devices plague every refrigerator regardless of brand or cost. We use a small freezer in the garage to store ice when needed. We are pleased with all other aspects of this fridge and the assistance from Best Buy. The space inside is better than expected for the 4 of us and the cooling is even. It is very quiet. It fits in the counter depth space very well and the doors clear easily when opened. Delivery was on time and the guys were knowledgeable.
