Microwave Installation

Built-in and over-the-range microwave installation

Microwave installation has its own requirements — cabinet mounting, venting, and clearances — that differ from a simple countertop swap.

Over-the-range microwaves

Over-the-range units mount to the cabinet above the range and typically vent either outside or recirculate through a charcoal filter. Installation includes confirming mounting-bracket alignment, weight support, and venting configuration for your kitchen.

Built-in and trim-kit microwaves

Built-in microwaves are installed into a cabinet opening, often with a trim kit sized to the specific model. RidgeCore confirms the opening dimensions and electrical requirements match the unit before installation.

Replacing an existing microwave

When replacing a unit that's failed or being upgraded, RidgeCore removes the old microwave and installs the new one as a single project — see installation and replacement coordination for how that process works.
