In the early stages of market development, the constantly changing layout of kitchens has made it difficult for the industry to achieve mass production. This leads to high overall cabinet costs and makes it hard to reduce prices. The lack of a standardized module system further hinders cost efficiency for manufacturers. This could be one of the reasons why built-in home appliances have developed slowly in China.
Refrigerators and washing machines are no longer seen as status symbols in modern households. As essential household items, they are no longer suitable for being placed in the living room and should be moved into the kitchen. However, integrating these appliances into the kitchen requires specific plumbing and electrical connections. Placing them inside cabinets raises the issue of modular positioning. After all, a built-in refrigerator may need space below a washing machine, while a dishwasher requires proper water pipe access.
Wei Hong, manager of Siemens’ integrated kitchen division, mentioned that their washing machine and dishwasher require at least 1 meter of vertical space. Other appliances like sterilization cabinets, microwave ovens, ovens, range hoods, and water heaters also seek their own designated spots. The horizontal control of gas pipelines remains a major challenge for kitchen cabinet manufacturers.
Electric water heaters come with even more complex requirements, including proper placement of water and power lines. A high-capacity gas water heater installed in the kitchen must account for intake and exhaust pipes, as well as the distance between the kitchen and bathroom. Most appliance manufacturers agree that these are real challenges. Without industry-wide standards and planning, the path for home appliances to fully integrate into the kitchen will remain difficult and uncertain.
