Unless your house and the gas connections are very old, you will not distrub them. My husband is an HVAC man, so I know this. I have never had trouble with the floor, which is vinyl. But if you are worried, getting an old blanket under the front feet and having someone pull slowly while someone else gently pulls up on th back will get it out no problem. And while it's out, if it makes you feel better, check the gas line connection if you do have a gas range!

Safety first.

I was told this be a gas man years ago. Best to remove the bottom draw.

Don't tug too hard and damage either of them. If you use a carpet scrap or rug. Turn it upside down. The canvas or backing side won't slide very well, if at all. Happy Cleaning!

I talked to the maintenance man and he told me that the bottom front panel can be removed. I removed the panel and I was able to clean the floor under the stove. If you have a gas stove, just follow the suggestions of the other posts. Posted on 04/18/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Moving a Stove By treehugger (4) Blog! Contact Cardboard under the feet of the stove works if you do not have carpet,and or those felt chair pads on the feet.

Make sure you don't intend to keep the carpet, as it will probably need thrown away afterwards. Posted on 04/18/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse
