#1 How much room does a fridge need around it to allow it to shed heat
and therefore be most efficient?
Samsung in the manual attached on page 11 about setting up your fridge. Samsung have requested 50mm on all sides and 100mm above, but like most suppliers take this to the max, i would consider if you have 20-30mm all the way around your new fridge this would be a minimum to have this unit operate correctly without affecting the operation.
