I belive it is 18" to 20" . Check owners manual it should say . Or look up building code in local area .
The biggest size microwave to install above your stove is 66" and is offered by more than one brand.
Better and faster in the microwave.
i'd say stove
I had the same question. I researched it and it appears that the answer is a minimum of 24" above the stove or between 60" and 75" off the floor. This puts the hood at a comfortable height for the typical user. B.D.
I believe that the Frigidaire PLMV169D 1.9 CuFt Over-the-Range Microwave Oven would be the best for over the stove.
Because the stove is broken.
18" is standard (same as the distance between the counter and upper cabinets), and most modern cabinets that microwaves are suspended from are built for this.
By a long distance, using a microwave is more conservative on electricity than by using resistive heating that a stove utilizes.
Convection currents from the stove or microwave.
soups? microwave soups are almost the same as stove
what is the distance required between the stove top and the microwave/fan vent
It varies according from one microwave to another. Consult the manufacturer.
