oven supports
12
The ovens may be supported by either a solid bottom
or 2 x 4 runners.
• The support must be level and rigidly mounted,
flush with the bottom edge of the cutout.
• The entire weight of the oven is supported by 2 x 4
runners or the solid floor and must be capable of
supporting 200 lbs. for double ovens and 150 lbs.
for single ovens.
• Measure and mark the location of the runners or
solid floor.
– 13-1/4" from the floor to the top of support, for
double ovens.
– 32-1/2" recommended from the floor to the top of
support, for single ovens.

If a solid bottom is used, a 6" x 10" rectangle must be
cut out to allow enough cooling airflow during a self-
cleaning operation.
– Cut the solid bottom out of 5/8" min. thick
sheeting to fit the inside dimensions of the
cabinet. Measure 10-1/2" from left side and 7"
from the back wall. Cut the ventilation hole 6"
wide and 10" deep.
• Cut two pieces of 3/8" to 5/8" thick sheeting, to fit
inside cabinet depth and available inside cabinet
height. If there is no interference below the cutout,
such as drawer runners, the sheeting can rest on the
floor. Secure the sheeting strips or pieces to the
cabinet walls with screws. Lay 2 x 4 or solid bottom
on top of the sheeting and drive screws through the
top and into the sheeting.
