This question was asked about the related product: GE - 30 inches - Convertible & Recirculating - Wall Range Hood - Slate

• A:Answer Hi-this is Sue from GE. Thanks for your interest! This hood is designed to be vented vertically through the ceiling. Use a 6" round duct. Use locally supplied elbows to vent horizontally through the rear wall. Or, a recirculation duct (included) and two charcoal filters (not included-JXCF72) are necessary for recirculation installation. Thanks for checking with us!

Q: QuestionRemodeling our kitchen. We have close to 4 ft from stove top to ceiling. We are not venting to the outside. What would the hood look like with 4 ft of clearance to ceiling? I want it to be close to ceiling with appearance of venting outside.

Asked 3 years ago by Hawaii.

• A:Answer Hello- Thanks for your interest in our 30" Convertible Range Hood. This is a really beautiful hood! The installation height should be measured from the cooking surface to the lowest part of the hood. This hood must be installed onto a wall. It can either be vented to the outdoors, or it can be installed for recirculating operation. The hood would look unfinished if you left a 4 foot space to the ceiling. We recommend getting the duct cover. It can be adjusted for ceilings between 7' 3/4" and 9' depending on the distance between the bottom of the hood and the cooktop. Please review page 6 in the installation instructions. https://files.bbystatic.com/g%2FgVtfSWPjoCNQWddBKs%2Bg%3D%3D/D67FF54E-9361-45C4-8C73-34702006953E.pdf If you have any questions in the future, please let us know.

Q: QuestionWhat materials are the black slate or slate models made of?

Asked 7 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer Hi - Black Slate/Slate is a highly engineered, low-gloss matte metallic paint finish that will hold a magnet. Black Slate is an extension of the Slate finish family from GE Appliances. It is a deep charcoal color. Its unique matte finish hides fingerprints and virtually eliminates smudges. The Black Slate painted finish also has a small amount of gloss for that sparkly reflection in the light.
