If your wall unit has a metal sleeve in it do you need to install the ducts to the microwave? thanks.

If you want it to vent to the great outdoors, you would.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!! I had a house built 6 years ago and had an over the range microwave installed. The first one that came with the house was a GE. after like 6 months it would run for a few seconds and...

It may be that the exhaust duct is blocked or the filter is dirty.

That can cause the oven to run chronically hot, which damages the microwave.

The whole duct needs to be checked for any blockage.

You will need to remove the oven from the wall.

To remove it from the wall, the installation instructions are very handy, and it's best to have two people since the microwave can be heavy and awkward.

Can i install an external blower outside to boost

Possibly so.

I'd first check to be sure the grease filter is clean, the duct work is not clogged, and the outside vent is not home to an animal's nest.

Can the lg lmv2083st microwave be vented to an outside vent? not clear from the installation manual.

On page 8 of the installation manual I found, it shows that the oven can be vented to the outside. You can view it at this link:

http://www.managemyhome.com/mmh/lis_pdf/INSTL/L0707162.pdf

If the link does not work, you can go to managemyhome.com and type in your model number under the "Manuals" link.

In the manual it describes three methods of venting: Room, Roof, and Wall. It also gives guidance on how to properly install the duct work.

If you have questions, please let me know. I hope this helps you.

Rust colored spots appearing between the glass panels in the door of our over the stove Microwave, model #MH6140XKQ

You first want to be sure your hood vent exhaust fan is working properly, that your grease filters are not clogged, that your charcoal filter (if equipped) is being changed every 6 months or whatever the owner's manual recommends, and that your exhaust duct work and outlet are not blocked.

You can also download the installation instructions from the link above and they will help you in checking the ducts and outlet.

If they're all okay, to prevent future moisture buildup, I recommend wiping the condensation off the walls and inner door surfaces after cooking, and leaving the door open a while to help it dry out further.

Plus I always recommend that you use the hood exhaust vent fan whenever you're cooking on the stove top to keep heat, steam, and grease out of the controls and the door panels.

Once troubleshooting and prevention are covered, then you can clean and repair the inner door surfaces.

You have to separate the door panels (as shown in the attached photo) and then you'll see the previously hidden screw(s) you need to remove.

Or you can watch a YouTube video (not a video I made) that demonstrates how it's done.

You can also find helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts by entering your full model number here.

If the rust is bad, the area will first have to be sanded smooth and cleaned and dried thoroughly.

Then you can apply some high-temperature appliance paint, available from places like Wal-Mart, Lowe's or Builder's Square.

If the wire mesh screen is damaged beyond just surface rust, it will have to be replaced, as it prevents microwave leakage, which can result in arcing or a fire.

Can't remove the vent grill

Two problems found. The electrician that installed the micro. installed it incorrectly. The fan was supposed to be turned so that the exhaust would go through the pre-installed duct in the wall. To remove the grill, there is two screws on top of the micro. which have to be removed. The builder put in a deeper cabinet that covers the screws because it looks better. To fix it I have to drop the micro, take off the grill, clean it and all the grease off the micro., replace the charcoal filter, turn the fan so it will exhaust through the duct and reinstall the micro.

Fan just circulates air instead of exhausting the air outside

The exhaust motor was not installed properly - it has to be turned 90 degrees so that the blower openings face up instead of the front. Whoever installed it didn't read the directions:)
Unfortunately, the unit will have to be taken down from the wall to correct the motor.

Mouse in vent fan?

Yes, the mouse was probably attracted to the warmth and food odors in the duct work and may have gotten trapped in the vanes of the fan and died. I'd act fast...

The best bet is to remove the oven from the wall, or almost from the wall, so you can see the area of the hood vent exhaust fan.

This is safer with two people and the installation instructions will be of great help.

Noise of microwave exhaust fan

You can remove the exhaust turbine unit with one screw and reinstall microwave and buy a braun external exhaust unit that fits over the hole where it is at the roof or wall and all of the noise will be outside and it will actually work. It is weather proof and will **** steam or fumes out like the best vacuum cleaner.
