Can this be used under a cabinet? Some specify that they release heat through the top &amp; aren't suitable for under-cabinet use but this one doesn't say

I have mine sitting on top of my microwave under overhead cabinets with approximately 6 inches between oven & cabinet & have no issues.

I will share that his unit gets very hot on top. This is throne area of disappointment compared with the under cabinet model I had that I replaced it for. It is because of the heat that I have not pursued creating an under cabinet holder for it to siting.

Yes it can be installed under the cabinet. The only consideration would be to assure that your screws don't go through the cabinet and poke through. You could purchase smaller screws as their is only one size in package.

It gets pretty hot all the sides except the control button side. Front glass is extremely hot. I can touch top and sides for few seconds. Yes, I have it under the cabinets and there is about 5 inches gap. Top is hot to touch for more than few seconds but it's not that hot that it can damage anything few inches above it.

These fans are not really made to mount in a cabinet like that... I ran into that problem myself... I did go ahead and cut a hole in my cabinet and mounted the best I could and they work fine... These are basically made to just sit beside, under or back of your equipment... You might be a better carpenter than I am and can make it work for you... Hope this helps!

I have mine mounted upright. I can't see that it would be a problem to mount it under a cabinet, though. I truly love mine.

I am not a cabinet guy, just a general contractor who used these for my own house but I don't see how these could be used that way. You should contact the seller and see what he thinks.

You can put it anywhere you want. If it is an enclosed cabinet I would make sure that there is enough ventilation. (see last post) If there isn't, heat will build up and the components in the cabinet will not last as long. When I am home I have my TV and Tuner on from when I get home from work to when I go to bed. Heat builds up and a cooling fan was a great solution to the heat build up. I'm no Amazon electronics wiz bang, just my 2 cents. Good luck.

Basically,the unit is nothing more than a "gym locker", meaning it is not airtight, and will not exclude moisture. I would suggest the use of use a heating rod should give adequate control of moisture if the location of the cabinet is kept in a relatively dry room. If it's located in an area without the electricity required by a heating rod, the I would use desiccant as a de-humidifier.

No,it will not get under cabinets and the measurement of the pad is 9x13. It does stream nice tho. I've had mine for 3months and works fine but it does seem pretty cheaply made.

We have our toaster oven on the counter under the wall cabinet. I think the key is having enough clearance around the oven to dissipate the heat. Not sure how much clearance the manufacturer recommends.

I think you would probably have a problem using this in a cabinet like that. Mine is in a cabinet to the right of my microwave. Plus, I don't know how tall you are, but I would also have a problem if it was above my microwave because of how high it would be. I moved my cabinet stuff around to make it fit in a cabinet where it was convenient and easily assessible. Hope this helps!!

I don't think a wood product would be a good idea under something that radiates so much heat. At the very least that repeated high heat would at the very least shrink and warp the wood.

Do NOT tightly enclose this adapter in anything that can act like a thermal insulator (e.g. a stuffed elephant). It needs some free air around it to keep from overheating and burning out or burning up. Sitting free above a cabinet is fine.

Provisions for extreme heat out of the top of the unit need to be had . As in any gas fired application , sufficient venting and clearances need to be adhered to . Under a sink cabinet would not be advisable . Why not locate the unit to a more suitable location and plumb the water line to the sink ?

can this also be used as a under counter bread box? Mounted on your upper cabinet, underneath?

The manual doesn't say anything about clearances. This model is not meant to be built-in to cabinetry, recessed or put underneath a counter. Additionally this model is not meant to be used in an enclosed area. While the back of the hit does produce a minimal amount of heat, it still need to vent to an open area.
