The bottoms of the cabinets are barely 29-1/2 from the stovetop and the microwave is rather tall unit. From contributor I: I should say the bottom of the cabinet next to the micro/hood is 54off finished floor. The top of the microwave/hood should be approximately 69 off finished floor, or about 33 above cook top.
I just mounted a GE microwave with a vent and it told me to mount at a minimum of 21 above the stove top. Comment from contributor P: I am just into this very problem with a client. The above stove cabinet was ordered for a standard vent hood over an electric stove. They then decided on a gas range.all cabinets start at 54 above the finished floor. Most OTR microwave hood combos are 16 1/2 tall. If you are lining up with a standard 84 cabinet height then the cabinet above the microwave should be 13 1/2 tall. You can go higher up with a 12 high upper cabinet but should never go lower with a 15 high cabinet.
