    Installing an over the range mircowave
    I currently have a range hood installed over the stove. I would like to upgrade to an over the range microwave with a convection oven feature. The cabinet installed is 15 x 30 and I have about 35 1/2 to 36 inches between the bottom of the cabinet and the top of the stove. I live in Maryland and I don't know if there are specific regulations or codes that dictate specifics. Will I be able to get a 16-16 1/2 inch mirohood installed with the current dimensions mentioned above?

    Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    I don't know much about codes, but I believe that most require a separate 20 amp circuit for the microwave/convection oven. Your space dimensions are identical to mine, except that my high cabinets are only 12" deep. I have a Sharp MV/Conv oven that sticks out 15 1/2". It looks great, and is very convenient. You should have no problem.
