    Our cabinets are 15 inch deep and the microwave is 15 as well. Do we need to use the spacer (in place of the mounting bracket) so that the door can open?
    We have a 3/4 inch filler piece as well, so we should shift everything down 3/4 of an inch?
    Great video, thank you!!!

    Great video. I have a question: my parents recently had a kitchenaid OTR microwave installed and it’s supposed to be vented through the roof. When I first used the exhaust fan I was surprised that air was strongly blowing through the top (just above the MW door), as if it was installed as a recirculating vent. Do you think it was installed incorrectly, i.e. not vented to the outside? Thanks in advance.

  • @user-yj1xm1fh8r
    @user-yj1xm1fh8r Před 7 měsíci +1

    Great video! Do you have one for a microwave with the roof vent?

    • @TheAppliancePlug
      @TheAppliancePlug  Před 7 měsíci

      Thank you! And no I don't have a video for a microwave specific to that, but I can definitely help you out. Just message us on any of our social medias.

  • @jimlynch2190
    @jimlynch2190 Před 2 lety +1

    Nice job producing the viddy. If I was in Tampa, I’d buy from you! I need to vent outside. I haven’t opened the box yet. Does the fitting go on before hanging it or after it’s up. That is the question. Thanks again!

    • @TheAppliancePlug
      @TheAppliancePlug  Před 2 lety

      Thanks for sharing! If you’re referring to the vent fitting, it’s installed before hanging it, then you connect your vent to the fitting after hanging it. Good luck!

    Has anyone ever told you that you resemble the actor who played Namor in Wakanda Forever? Random i know lol Anyway, thanks so much for this!! I got a second hand microwave that was set up to vent through the ceiling but I need it to recirculate as i don't have any vents. I couldn't find anything that explained how to set it up to recirculate, not even the installation manual or LGs actual customer service. So grateful for this video..I now know that I need to get a cover plate for the fan as well as how to turn the fan the correct direction! Thank you thank you!

    • @TheAppliancePlug
      @TheAppliancePlug  Před 7 měsíci

      No nobody has told me I looked like Namor and you are so welcome! Hopefully everything has been smooth since you installed it

    Great work Mike. I am remodeling my kitchen and don't have the templates, . any tips on how i can create a template for my microwave ?

    • @TheAppliancePlug
      @TheAppliancePlug  Před rokem

      Thank you. When I don't have the templates to work with, I usually just measure the distances from the edges of the microwave to determine the placement of the screw holes. Good luck!

  • @NajRellim
    @NajRellim Před rokem +1

    You did not mention that there must be a minimum clearance of 30 inches from the bottom edge that will touch the top of the microwave to the top of the cooking surface. Did you first check that measurement to ensure a safe installation?

    • @sarah_g_7356
      @sarah_g_7356 Před 6 měsíci

      We have been told there should also be a minimum of 18 inches between bottom of microwave and top of stove top...have you heard this? The manufacturer of our old unit and of our new unit won't give us a clear answer. This info we found from our provincial building code..
