Where are the vents? Does heat from unit damage upper cabinets? Dimensions?

The vents are around the white center control unit. The oven is about a foot high and 18 inches in diameter.

I did not have any damage to kitchen cabinets. But usual try to bring the oven a little forward from the upper cabinets. You could place the oven on the stove top , use the fan. But I never had a need to do that. I love that oven, and had been using for many years

back side and no it has not damaged my cabinets. 13" high and 17" wide. I cook chicken, roasts, and steaks in it and it takes about half the time and uses less energy than turning on your oven. I live in Florida and love it because I don't have to turn on my oven.

I built a cabinet for it 23" wide and 14" high, with a 21" depth (more than the unit, to allow air to flow behind the oven and carry heat away. The height and width dimensions did not leave much space, but work well.

I remodeled my kitchen last summer and wondered the same thing. The problem is that this unit blows exhaust from the back, traditional built in's blow it out the front. Operating heat for the compressor is an issue. As long as the unit can get airflow around it, it will be fine. I had the under counter hole cut 6" wider than the unit (3" ea side) and at least 6" space behind the compressor. I framed in the gap with trim pieces on the front. It looks and runs great. Hope this helps!

In addition to the dimensions, please keep in mind the sides get extremely hot. You'll need to allow extra space for this.

recommended only if the space behind the cabinet vents to some open space. otherwise, the cooler will overheat.

I have gotten the temp. up into the 400's with no damage to the cabinet above. It must be well insulated because the top doesn't get very hot. It is warm enough to warm a plate but not hot.

The exterior gets very hot to the touch. Mine is placed on a kitchen counter top and about five inches underneath the wooden cabinets. It operates here and I have no fear of fire.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!!! but to answer your question the largest room I have it's about 12x15 and it cool and heats it good. Now this particular one i have it in the kitchen and I do not use much. The reason that I am telling you to do not buy this specific one is that it advertises as a complete set and it does not bring the copper pipes that you need their customer service is horrible and likes to argue with you. And yes they will take it back but they will try to charge you a 22% to return it plus shipping and handling. There are other a/c ductless that are great comes complete and the only thing you have to do is put it up and vacuum them. The people from HIGHSEER sell some great ones and the brand name is PIONEER and those are the ones i use in the rest of the house.

There is an opening in the back down the middle, probably only a few inches wide though. About an 1/8th of an inch gap around the glass front at the top. This is in my basement and the receiver doesn't see a ton of use so i don't notice any heat build up inside.

exterior does not heat to a point of altering finish on cabinets. Steam feature does emit some steam, but no damage observed

The vents are on the left side. I have a 1" gap between the wall and the microwave. I had no heat related issues.

The dimensions are in the product description. It is 30" wide but very deep and tall. Way bigger than my condo cabinets and it is very heavy. You would need very deep upper cabinets, a lot of clearance space above your stove, and help to install it.

I have 2 in my kitchen island as long as you maintain a 1/2" air gap you should be ok. Iv never had a issue but they are rear venting, most high end built ins are bottom venting.

The Unit remains cool to the touch all over its exterior, front, back and top. The only warm area is the front vent where the heat come directly out of. My wife, who is very attentive to space heaters has been most happy with the performance dynamics and meeting the definition of heating and its cabinets temperature variables for cool to touch. So you should be able to place anything on top of it you wish, my wife has the Christmas Cactus and its ceramic vase on it and it has never been warm to the touch at all. I believe you'll be very happy with the units and its performance. Vpc_Dlc

Recommended clearances to combustible surfaces (from the manual): 34" top, 30" side, 30" back, 68" below.Keep in mind that while the main heat transfer is by radiation from the front ceramic grill, this is a fired heater, so there will be a good deal of heat rise off the top of the heater. Some method of air circulation above the heater will help, both to avoid 'hot spots' along the ceiling and to get good distribution of all of the heat from the unit.
