A:AnswerHi Carol - It's nice to hear from you! We are sorry to hear your microwave needs replacing and apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. A comparable model is GE® 1.9 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Sensor Microwave Oven Model # JVM7195SKSS. Mounting holes will not be the same on current models. When replacing an over-the-range microwave, the mounting bracket included with the new microwave should be used since the mounting bracket is specific to each model. The new screws, bolts, and exhaust adapter should also be used. We appreciate your loyalty. If you have any additional questions, do not hesitate to ask, we are happy to help at GEAppliances.com! Sue

Also, the over-the-range models are all designed for adaptation for the following three types of ventilation: 1. Outside Exhaust (Vertical – Delivered from factory in vertical position). 2.

A:AnswerHi there,
If you are making your unit recirculating instead of venting externally, you would use a charcoal filter. One is supplied upon delivery. However, when you need to purchase a new one, the part number for that filter is as follows: WB02X11550. The filter is located behind the grill at the top of the opening of the microwave, once the door has been opened. For a diagram that should help clear things up and directions on how to remove and replace the filter, take a look at pg. 15 of your Owner's Manual. You can view that document here: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-40669-6.PDF - We hope that this helped! Thank you so much for your question. -Michael
A:AnswerHello. Thank you for your interest in purchasing a new microwave. We are glad to assist. The GE® 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave Oven JVM3160DFWW is a great replacement for your existing model: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-specs/JVM3160DFWW
The new model has an option of non-vented/ductless installation. The charcoal filter should be used for recirculating back into the room and it is included with this model. I hope this helps. Olga
A:AnswerHello, all 30" over-the-range microwaves are approximately the same width, and are designed to fit into a 30" wide cabinet opening. Therefore, any of our 30" over-the-range models will work as a replacement for an existing 30" over-the-range model.
