cabinet rebuilding necessary in many cases. Complete detailed, easy-to-follow
installation instructions and convenient full-size templates are packed with the
Spacemaker microwave oven.
Important Information: When installing the Spacemaker microwave oven over
a range, allow minimum of 2" from bottom of Spacemaker microwave oven to top
of range backguard to allow for removal of light covers.
Ventilation Options: The Spacemaker microwave ovens are designed for
adaptation to the following three types of ventilation:
• Outside exhaust (vertical – as shown)
• Outside exhaust (horizontal)
• Recirculating (non-vented ductless – see Filter Kit drawing)

Optional Accessories (Available at additional cost)
Hood Exhaust Duct: Outside ventilation requires a HOOD EXHAUST DUCT. Read the
following carefully.
Exhaust Duct: The hood exhaust has been designed to mate with a standard
3-1/4" x 10" rectangular duct. If a round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round transition
adaptor must be used. Do not use less than a 6” diameter duct.
Rear Exhaust: If a rear or horizontal exhaust is to be used, care should be taken to
align exhaust with space between studs, or wall should be prepared at the time it is
constructed by leaving enough space between the wall studs to accommodate exhaust.
Maximum Duct Length: For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length of
3-1/4" x 10" rectangular or 6" diameter round duct should not exceed 120 equivalent feet.
Elbows, Transitions, Wall and Roof Caps, etc., present additional resistance
to airflow and are equivalent to a section of straight duct which is longer than their
actual physical size. When calculating the total duct length, add the equivalent length of
all transitions and adaptors plus the lengths of all straight duct sections. The chart below
shows the approximate feet of equivalent length of some typical ducts.
Duct Equivalent Feet
A. Rectangular-To-round
Transition Adaptor 5 ft.
B. Wall Cap 40 ft.
C. 90° Elbow 10 ft.
D. 45° Elbow 5 ft.
E. 90° Elbow 25 ft.
F. 45° Elbow 5 ft.
G. Roof Cap 24 ft.
