Stove is moving

surball · 2015-02-03 23:13:26

Just got a freestanding stove installed. When I close the door the entire unit moves slightly. Does anyone else experience this and is it ok to adjust a stove when it happens?

As most stoves are in the 100kg range except the really small cheap ones, I suspect its not sitting on all 4 legs properly.
My concern is that if the movement is excessive the flue connection will eventually come loose and you are at risk of fumes entering the room.
Any more intel/pics?
