Install Laminate Under Stove

However it is possible to install laminate flooring under.

Install laminate under stove. I have been getting mixed information about whether or not i should put laminate flooring under my appliances in my kitchen. While refrigerators and stoves can be removed easily to install the flooring the same cannot be said for kitchens with a dishwasher. Yes laminate is a floating floor type so it should defiantly go in after the cabinets. I m getting ready to install laminate tile in the kitchen.

Sometimes the heat can be directed at the flooring you use in front of the fireplace. If you have a plastic based flooring like a laminate material or another type of flooring that could melt or crack under constant heat consider using a hearth rug. Installing laminate flooring under a refrigerator takes experience and the same tools used to install the bulk of the flooring. Since it is a floating floor i know that it needs to be able to move and to leave a certain width on the outer edges that will be covered up by trim but wouldn t putting a stove and fridge on the flooring cause issues.

I see no reason to not install it in the kitchen and would continue it under the appliances as well. I cannot run baseboard along the bottom edge of the fireplace and i think quater round would look kind of funny between the rock on either side of the fireplace rock will be installed beside and above the fireplace. The heat a gas fireplace produces is typically directed out.
