I have a Casa100 I'm trying to install, and I had a lot of trouble getting the oven pieces to line up. How exact is the fit supposed to be? The sides have a gap of about 1/3" at the bottom.

One problem is the FB board underneath the oven got compressed as I shifted the pieces around trying to get them to line up.

Hello stchang,

You should be able to get the seams of the dome of the Casa100 to line up nicely, leaving you a 1/4" gap between the floor and the dome. That gap is for expansion and contraction.

One way of knowing that the dome is set up correctly is that you can see that it is sitting flush on the FB Board (though the compression in the board might be making it difficult to see that line up).

Can you flip the board over? If not, and it is a problem, contact us at the office and we can replace the board.

Let me know how it goes.
