Description
The Grille Vent is an OEM part for GE microwaves. It is designed to fit above the microwave door, facilitating the ventilation of steam and heat generated during cooking. This grille helps to maintain optimal operating temperatures and prevents overheating by ensuring proper airflow across the microwave's internal components.
Causes for grille vent damage typically involve prolonged exposure to heat and moisture, which can degrade the material of the grille over time.
Symptoms of a bad Grille Vent include:
- Cracking or warping due to high heat exposure
- Restricted airflow that may cause the microwave to overheat
- Increased noise levels as the fan struggles to pull air through the blocked or damaged vent
This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
