Built-In Ovens

Provide

oven supports

The ovens may be supported by either a solid bottom or 2 x 4 runners.

•The support must be level and rigidly mounted, flush with the bottom edge of the cutout.

•The entire weight of the oven is supported by 2 x 4 runners or the solid floor and must be capable of supporting 200 lbs. for double ovens and 150 lbs. for single ovens.

If a solid bottom is used, a 6" x 10" rectangle must be cut out to allow enough cooling airflow during a self- cleaning operation.

–Cut the solid bottom out of 5/8" min. thick sheeting to fit the inside dimensions of the cabinet. Measure 10-1/2" from left side and 7" from the back wall. Cut the ventilation hole 6" wide and 10" deep.

•Measure and mark the location of the runners or solid floor.

–13-1/4" from the floor to the top of support, for double ovens.

–32-1/2" recommended from the floor to the top of support, for single ovens.

•Cut two pieces of 3/8" to 5/8" thick sheeting, to fit inside cabinet depth and available inside cabinet height. If there is no interference below the cutout, such as drawer runners, the sheeting can rest on the floor. Secure the sheeting strips or pieces to the cabinet walls with screws. Lay 2 x 4 or solid bottom on top of the sheeting and drive screws through the top and into the sheeting.
