hi m8s
if you have a stack of boxes.
s eparate them,
cut some 9 inch lengths of timder,about 2.0 cm square and place them between your bxes so some air can ciculate.
definit for reliability.

only trouble with that is each box gets hot and hot air rises and if you have just got spacers between the boxes the hot air will go through the boxes making them hotter and hotter
better off with say 2inch spacers on top of each box then a thin sheet of ply about 5 mm this will give them room to breath and the ply will stop the heat going throught the box on top of the one below and if they are in a cupboard leave the doors open as this will let the air curculate between the boxs better still take the back of the cupboard as this will create a through draft
