    Your explanation in 15 seconds is 100% better than the whirlpool manual I was reading. I literally put it down & figured it out my self with this video. TY

    Make sure the mwave has its own circuit so to be up to code. I've replaced 2 MW ovens in my life. Fastening it was the easy part. Lifting it to place it was the hard part. One time I used a board on top of my range. Then I placed 2 car jacks on top to lift it all. This made the process much easier for this woman. I still made sure that I had a strong helper.
    Thanks for the demo.

    You forgot to mention that every "TEMPLATE " is 3/4 to 1 inch off from mounting holes in the microwave. I've installed many of these. Easier to put the bolts in the microwave, paint the top of the bolt. Dry fit install microwave and the paint marks your holes. Perfect. I suspect you had to wrestle and curse those bolts to thread while holding the microwave with your shoulder. If not cross threaded.

      This one was pretty easy actually, we had 2 people though so it definitely makes it easier

      Thank you .. I bought a really nice used and there is no template... Didn't have the bolts either😵‍💫

      That's a good idea.. dab of caulk on the top on the bolts! Or Buy a Whirlpool.... They put the template on cardboard.

    So where the hell does the microwave/range exhaust supposed to go without any exhaust piping?

      Blows out the top of the microwave through the filters at the bottom of it. It's over an electric range so there's no fumes to worry with either.

      Why would you hang microwave everyday? Do you take it off just to put it back on?

    Do you have to have the top cabinet or can it just be mounted to the wall?

    • @DiyCommerce
      @DiyCommerce  Рік тому

      The top cabinet hides the power outlet but I'm sure there are units you could without it just check the installation instructions

    The way that you plug it in could literally break the socket.

    I paid for installation but Home Depot did not touch anything. They said I have to remove some tiles. What si a tool easily can be used to cut and remove some tiles?

    • @DiyCommerce
      @DiyCommerce  Рік тому +1

      Tile is never fun to remove hammer and a chisel for just a couple of pieces
