QuestionWhat does convertible mean? I need external exhaust.
Asked 4 years ago by grammy.
- Answer Hi grammy, Thanks for reaching out to us! We appreciate your interest in GE Appliances, and would be happy to help you with this range hood. The term "convertible" (also called recirculating) vent hoods can be easily converted to be non-vented. This model range hood is manufactured with vents on the top rear of the appliance, so it is already set up for external exhaust. For more information on ventilation, use the following link: https://files.bbystatic.com/SIIlaP6Ajr9vobiQeMtxmA%3D%3D/32594749-b2b4-4e9a-a85d-72e598a091d0.pdf We hope this information is helpful. If any more questions should arise, feel free to ask. Thank you for choosing GE Appliances, and have a great day! -Sylvia@GEA

QuestionI want to replace a ductless range hood. Cant find one that takes the air up faster. The smoke Detector goes off quite a bit. The one we had just bought doesn’t make enough noise and does not seem to pull up the air as fast.
Asked 5 years ago by Lam.
- Answer Hi Lam - Non-Vented hoods do not have a CFM rating. Air is pulled up through the hood, forced through a filter, and back out into the same room. Since the air is simply being circulated, there is no need for the measurement of air flow. "CFM" (cubic feet per minute) is the measurement of the exchange of air from one area to another. Vented Hoods have CFM ratings. In order to remove the air faster, the hood would need to be vented outdoors. Thanks for your interest in GE! -Emelea

Asked 8 years ago by Kath.
This question was asked about the related product: GE - 30 inches - Convertible - Under cabinet Range Hood - Slate
- Answer We have the slate one and it has the option to be vented or ventless. There are knockouts that can be used to make it vented, however it comes set up to be ventless for recirculation into the kitchen. It does NOT come with the charcoal filter though. That needs to be purchased separately.
