What is the required area around a microwave that is required for air flow? We're in the middle of a kitchen remodel. We've been told we are required to have a microwave trim kit for a full-sized microwave in order for their to be sufficient air circulation. The trim kit, however, is awfully large and is really cutting back on our pantry space.
Is a trim kit required for a microwave to be within a cabinet? Again, is their a minimum distance required around the microwave to assure proper air flow?
Thanx much for your help.
