“How much space does there need to be left around the sides of the fridge when installed? If you have a a 36'' width space for the fridge to be set in, is the 35 5/8'' too close to the 36''?”

• Hello shopper! To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for a 1/2" (1.25 cm) of space on each side and at the top. Allow for a 1" (2.54 cm) space behind the refrigerator. If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line connections. When installing your refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave a 3 3/4" (9.5 cm) minimum space between the refrigerator and wall to allow the door to swing open.
