“The clearance height cutout requirement on best buy website for LG LRFLC2716S shows 72-1/4"inches. The fridge is only 70-1/4"inches high. The LG installation clearance requirement is 1"inch at the top. Is 72-1/4" inches on Best buy wrong?”

Best Buy is not necessarily wrong with that Cutout height of 72 1/4" for the ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG Counter-Depth MAX™ 26.5 Cu. Ft. French Door Smart Refrigerator with Internal Water Dispenser - Stainless Steel, Model # LRFLC2716S. The 1 inch installation clearance for the top listed in the specifications on our product detail page for the refrigerator that ensures that you have enough space around the refrigerator for airflow is a minimum recommendation. The more airflow you have around the refrigerator, the better so a cutout of 72 1/4" is not necessarily wrong. Refrigerator are heat exchange units that need space to dissipate the heat they generate. They take heat from the interior of the unit and dissipate it to the surrounding environment which plays a crucial role in both the cooling and heating processes in refrigeration systems...^Ivan.
