Hey guys
Happy to provide pictures when I get home, but we had a new oven installed yesterday, it seems like it might have been a bit shorter than the previous and there’s an inch gap between the top of the oven and the worktop counter.When the oven is heating up, you can feel a real push of air that moves your tshirt! My partner says it’s potentially fine as “The air needs to go somewhere” which makes sense, but something definitely doesn’t seem right!
Any ideas?

Ok thanks, it just seems like a lot of air gets pushed out!
Our Neff oven does exactly the same, quite nice at this time of year but a bit warm in summer.:)
Didn’t happen with ovens years ago but modern ovens have a lot of sensitive electronics at the front which need to be kept safe from overheating.

Ah, ok, makes sense. it doesn’t seem to be warm air, it’s fairly cool…As long as it’s normal, i’m happy with it!
On some makes of oven this fan can run on for a while even after the oven is switched off, fairly cool is good.
