QuestionAt 75 pounds. is it easy to install? Will extra wall support be needed?
Asked 4 years ago by gg0520.
- Answer Not a job for one person. There is a brace that should be secured to the studs in the back and 3 bolts on top cabinet. Check online installation instructions available on the Samsung site. Be sure to be aware if it is a vented or not to how the fan position should be. Not really hard to install, but can be a challenge.

QuestionI don't need the venting function of this microwave. If I install this under an existing cabinet, do I still need to vent it to remove heat from when the unit is used as microwave and convection oven? If so, what size hole do I need to vent out the back?
Asked 4 years ago by JC.
- Answer Hi JC! This model will require an exhaust system in order to function properly, but there are a couple different ways it can be set up. Here's a link (https://bit.ly/3kcV5MR) to the installation manual for this model. Pages 4 and 11 begin the steps on how to install the different types of exhaust systems. ^Jecca
