General Electric Grille

The Base Grille is an OEM component for GE bottom-mount refrigerators. It functions as the aesthetic frame surrounding the condenser coils and fan at the base. The base grille works to contain stored cold and hot air within the refrigeration system. 

Symptoms of a bad base grille include:

• Excessive dust or pet hair buildup obstructing airflow  
• Visible damage or cracks allowing air leaks
• Detachment from the refrigeration system

Over many years, repeated vacuuming can weaken mounting tabs while physical impacts compromise integrity. Proper evaporator function relies on controlled air circulation. Repairing air leaks maintains energy efficiency.

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore bottom-freezer models.

The Vent Grille is an OEM part for GE microwaves. It is located at the top of the microwave, allowing proper ventilation by covering the exhaust opening while protecting internal components from debris and dust.

Causes of a bad vent grille can include cracking or breaking due to impact, warping from prolonged exposure to heat, or discoloration from grease and food particles. A damaged vent grille can impede proper ventilation, potentially leading to overheating and reduced efficiency of the microwave.

Symptoms of a bad Vent Grille include:

• Visible cracks or breaks in the grille
• Warping or melting of the plastic
• Discoloration or buildup of grease and grime

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The GE grille vent is an OEM replacement part responsible for allowing airflow and ventilation in the microwave. The grille vent is typically located on the front of the microwave, near the top, or on the sides. It serves as an outlet for heat and steam generated during cooking, helping to prevent the accumulation of excess moisture and maintaining proper airflow within the appliance.

The GE grille vent can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.

Dimensions:

• Depth - 29.625  in
• Height - 2.25  in
• Width - 3.5  in

This part fixes the following symptoms:

• Restricted airflow or poor ventilation inside the microwave
• Excessive heat buildup or overheating during cooking
• Steam or condensation remaining inside the microwave after use
• Visible damage, such as cracks, breaks, or warping, to the grille vent
• Inability to properly attach or secure the grille vent

This upper vent grille assembly replaces the front top grille on your microwave. It directs airflow through the louvers and restores a secure, finished look while helping shield the filter area and internal components from accidental contact.

• The grille is fully seated and clear of the door swing

The Grille Base is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is a foundational component that secures and supports the refrigerator's grille and condenser fan assembly. Designed to mount securely onto the refrigerator cabinet, the grille base provides a stable platform for these important cooling system parts.   

Causes of a bad grille base can include cracks or breaks in the plastic material over time due to normal operation and cooling system vibration. The constant back-and-forth motion of the condenser fan can also cause wear in fastening points.

Symptoms of a bad grille base include:

• Increased vibrations or rattling noises coming from the cooling system area
• The grille or condenser fan assembly becoming loose, detached, or misaligned  
• Reduced airflow and cooling efficiency

This OEM GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore models. Replace yours today to restore optimal cooling performance and reliability.
