ᐅ CERAMIC COOKTOP – Is Installation Possible Above a Dishwasher?

Hello!

I have a Framtid HGC6T ceramic cooktop and would need to install it above a built-in dishwasher due to space constraints. Would this be possible, or would the cooktop get too hot from underneath, potentially damaging the dishwasher below?

Thank you in advance for a clarifying response 🙂

Hello
If there is another way to solve this, I wouldn’t do it, because when opening the dishwasher, steam could enter the cooktop and, over time, damage it!!!

In general, you should avoid doing this, mainly because improper installation will void the warranty. The dishwasher only has insulation above it, and the cooktop generates heat. If overheating causes a short circuit and, in the worst case, a fire, the insurance will not cover any damages. It is safer to use a freestanding cooktop placed on the countertop.
