The microwave should be installed with 30 inches between the top of the microwave/hood combination and the top of the cooktop. Please feel free to let me know if you need further assistance. Thank you for using ManageMyLife.com.
The National Kitchen and Bath Association recommends that the bottom of the microwave should be no higher than 54 inches above the floor, which would allow for 18 inches of clearance between the microwave and the typical cooktop height of 36 inches.ight clearances, however, may make it difficult to use large pots on the cooktop. Dimensions of over-the-counter microwaves range from 14 to 30 inches wide, 12 to 16 inches deep and 10 to 17 inches high.
