From a previous answer, it sounds like this can't be used with an existing 36" GE cooktop but only with new cooktops. I have a GE ZGU385NSM2SS cooktop and GE ZVB36SH1SS downdraft. I intended to use this to replace the downdraft. Is that not an option? null

We don’t have a GE cooktop. We called Best Buy explained what brand we had along with the information specific to what we were trying to replace. They recommended this one and it works great.

Hello- We appreciate your question and are happy to help! These are the same width but have different height and depth. Please take a look at the following specifications to see if the new model will work for you. There needs to be enough room for the blower motor. https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=130656_zvb36shbhwh_c4.pdf&_ga=2.46946983.1670723597.1642095478-1082323536.1616710848&_gac=1.208406950.1640195278.EAIaIQobChMIhqOnovH39AIV4zo4Ch3I_AHOEAAYASAAEgLqOfD_BwE ****https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=UVD6361SPSS_21.pdf If you have any questions in the future, please let us know.
