Hi all
Think this is the right place to post - it involves wood worktops.
I'm making good progress fitting and customising my Ikea kitchen but now need to fit the beech worktops. The Ikea website said I only need to fit a vapour barrier above a dishwasher (which we don't have) but the instructions that came with the worktops said that you need to fit a vapour barrier above an oven and a washing machine as well.
Ikea only seem to offer a plastic barrier http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/04375085 for dishwashers - we live too far away to go to ikea for just one thing - is there anything else that I could use instead? I read some where that clear sticky back plastic would do the job for the washing machine. But what about the oven? The hob will sit directly above the built in oven so is anything necessary? Any and all advice much appreciated!
thanks in advance
