sparey 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2007 Hi Mr Chong,Understand that stove is not suitable to place directly opposite window. However, due to my small kitchen layout, I have no choice but to place it near the fridge which is just 1ft away in-between. Is it ok?I have only 3 options to place it now:1) Facing directly opposite full window2) Beside fridge which is only 1ft away3) Further away from fridge but face 1/2 window oppositeReally hope if you could advise on this. Thanks in advance! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks in advance!HelloAs a matter of fact, your fridge paintwork may be damage due to the heat generated from the stove over a period of time. If you have no other choice, you should purchase an aluminium sheet place vertically beside the stove to shield the fridge. In terms of FS, I can't specifically comment as I don't know your kitchen layout and directions.Technically speaking from BaZhai, you're quite right, however its not always the case.Most people should pick on option 3. I still can't comment if you don't give me the info I need. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway the main door is in NE direction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sparey 0 Report post Posted November 11, 2007 here's my floorplan. Fridge will be directly facing the toilet door. Planning to place stove just beside the fridge facing the toilet wall. Is it ok if I choose option 3 (facing 1/2 window opposite)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway the main door is in NE direction.For a stove, I can't suggest things which are 'general'. Given the direction, if you seldom cook, you may place it against the wall beside the pillar.

As I said before, option 3 looks better than the rest.You may improvise to get that part of the window covered (base on just the floorplan). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
