Q: QuestionI have a GE Microwave PEM31SM1SS Need to replace or repair but fitting in same space. What's comparable now? It makes a humming noise when plugged in.

This question was asked about the related product: GE - Profile Series 1.1 Cu. Ft. Built-In Microwave with Sensor Cooking and Defrost - Stainless Steel

• A:Answer Hello, thanks for asking this question! It's normal for the transformer (used to power the clock) to emit a slight humming sound when the microwave is plugged in, but not in operation - though this noise is usually not noticed. If you're looking to replace your current microwave, we're seeing that Model #PEM31SFSS (this microwave) is comparable in size, capacity, and microwave watts. Additionally, if you're interested in a built-in trim kit for this model, here are those kit model #s - 27" Trim Kit: #JX827SFSS and 30" Trim Kit: #JX830SFS. Or, the undercabinet hanging kit for this model is #JXA019K. We hope this helps! All the best, Kelsey@GEA

Q: QuestionDoes the GE Profile Series 1.1 cu ft midsize PEM31DFBB model have the 4 holes in the top of the microwave? We have an existing mounting hardware but want to make sure the holes are already drilled or ready to be drilled.

Asked 5 years ago by hallli2.

This question was asked about the related product: GE Profile - 1.1 Cu. Ft. Built-In Microwave with Sensor Cooking and Electronic Touch Controls - Black on Black

• A:Answer Hi there, thanks for checking on this! The model in question has four bumps on its top that work in tandem with the hanging kit: WX4-A019. We'd recommend using new mounting hardware with a new microwave. It's possible that the mounting holes have shifted slightly over time so be sure to check the installation instructions that come with your mounting kit. We hope this helps and that you're staying safe. -Michael@GEA

Q: QuestionIs this a ventless microwave

Asked 5 years ago by Randi.

This question was asked about the related product: GE - Profile Series 1.1 Cu. Ft. Built-In Microwave with Sensor Cooking and Defrost - Stainless Steel

• A:Answer Hi Randi! Great question! Since this model can be put on a countertop, hung under a cabinet using the hanging kit, or built in with the model specific trim kit, would you not need to worry about using ducting to vent this microwave as that's not apart of its design. So long as the air clearances are met for this model, you should be just fine! Hope this helps and that you're staying safe. -Michael@GEA
