Kitchen organization limitations
Hi, I'm redoing the kitchen in a unit, and I have some concerns with placing the electric stove and sink.
As you can see from the picture, it's a very small kitchen area (might even call it a pantry, the fridge is left outside that pantry).
My questions:
1. Can I place the electric stove next to the back wall(all the way to the left)? I was concerned about the heat from the stove might damage the wall.
2. Can I place the electric stove next to the sink? I was concerned about the splashing sink water might do some damage to the stove? Or could cause a fire?
I wish to squeeze them as much as I can in order to have a large continuous countertop space as much as possible (on the right).
Is there any code around these kind of decisions?
Any suggestions are appreciated! Thanks.
