“My new Kitchenaide 27'' double wall convection oven was installed today, only turned it on for about 30 minutes and my hardwood floor below the bottom oven was very hot. Should I be concerned about this?”

The "vent" that directs the heat out of your oven(s) is at the bottom of the lower oven which keeps heat from building up inside your cabinetry The "vent" has a flange that causes the flow of warm air downward. Depending on how far from the floor this vent is would affect how warm the floor would get. The only concern I would have is whether or not the surface of your floor has a top layer with a coating that could blister or warp over time if it gets too hot. You might want to ask your oven installer if the ovens are too close to your flooring.
