Lynda, To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for ¹⁄₂" (1.27 cm) of space on each side and at the top. Allow for 1" (2.54 cm) of space behind the refrigerator. If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line connections. When installing your refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave a 2" (5.08 cm) minimum space on each side (depending on your model) to allow the doors to swing open. Hopefully this information is beneficial to you. Thank you for your inquiry regarding our Whirlpool appliances!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi, I just recently bought this and had the same issue about clearance, but i found out that the dimensions mentioned in the specification are good enough for the fit, and we did not need any extra clearance at all. So you should be good with it!
