LG Fridges Clearance Requirements
LG fridges installed in Australian homes require 50mm side, 50mm rear, and 20mm top ventilation clearance per manufacturer guidelines. Notable: wider side spacing than the 40mm category average (50mm required); above-average rear clearance (50mm vs 25mm default) — leave extra wall space for airflow; unusually low top clearance requirement (20mm vs 50mm default) — good for fitted kitchen cabinetry. Insufficient clearance can void warranty and cause premature compressor failure.

Installation Tips
- Push fridge at least 50mm from the wall before securing — use a tape measure, not eyeballing.
- Cavity width must exceed the appliance width by at least 100mm total (50mm each side).
- Measure your cavity before purchase — fridge dimensions vary by ±20mm between models within this brand.
