Can this unit be safely built in?

Yes, that's how we have it. We set the unit to the edge of a cabinet and only the glass door sticks out for easy open and access.

I do not think you can this is a base unit. I wold go to a custom shop they would be able to give you the best advice.

All the controls are on the top so that part would work but there's no lip for it to hang on to the countertop. If there is some sort of support from below for it to rest on, I think it could be done. The unit itself doesn't get that hot so it likely would be safe. I think for safety sake, install it into a fireproof surface... not wood. Hope this helps. P.S. I think there are models that are specifically designed to be built in.

I am sure you can, but I have read that it may not always be a safe thing todo if something goes awry with the wiring

Personally I would say NO!!!!!!, because the unit is "NOT" real heavy duty. I was very displeased with the one that I had.

I don't think that would be a problem, you would have to provide your own hardware to mount it but I think as long as you aren't pulling over its capacity you would be ok.

As long as you mount it to something secure, it works great. They just don't want someone to be able to smash the unit off the wall, so brick, concrete block, metal studs are all great. Wood, siding - not so good. The unit will probably survive but your wall wouldn't.

I don't know. I would imagine that you would have to ask some who is familiar with international building codes and reside in the jurisdiction that you may want to install the hardware.

Yes, I built it last year, and just went to take a look at it, the legs are not an integral part of the unit, you should be fine without them.

My husband put it together with no problems, just when assembling make sure you are close to where the unit will be stationed since it's so large.

Haven't used it as such, but don't see why not. Seems to be a pretty sturdy unit -- besides being prety.

If it is, you wouldn't know it from the build quality. Top notch. It's a great unit.

Not that I know of, however, you could build one easily, although I don't recommend housing it, since it will be just for aesthetic reasons. If you do, be aware of heat build up from 5 hard drives. I use 4 of this units with my movie editing system, I have attached each to a power supply at the bottom but do not dare encase them. I even use additional fans to ventilate the units. Hope this helps.

Probably. You'd have to use your own hardware. It really is more of a stand alone unit.

Yes, as long as your heating/cooling system supports this. (i.e. You need the appropriate wiring in the wall.)

Sounds like a great idea! Suggest it to the manufacturer. I have no idea if it's offered but the unit is good enough to deserve it.

I've never built it in that configuration but I've seen it done that way by other modelers so my answer is yes. Just by looking at my kit I dont see why not, I even think it's easier that way :)
