Ventilation
The main consideration when installing any refrigeration unit into a fitted kitchen is ventilation.
The heat removed from the cooling compartment needs to be dissipated into the atmosphere.
Incorrect ventilation can lead to premature compressor failure, excessive power consumption,
total system failure and may invalidate the warranty provided with the appliance. For products
intended to be instaIIed into a taII housing unit, the foIIowing requirements need to be met:
The open channeI at the rear is cIearIy shown. For the correct operation of the appIiance it is
important that the top of the housing unit is not bIocked off. A channeI depth of 40-50mm is
normaI with most units.
A ventiIation hoIe is required in the pIinth of the unit; this aIIows air to be drawn over the
compressor & heat exchange. The required air flow can be achieved by removal of a thin section of
plinth (recommended 600mm x 10mm minimum).
As a rule, the more air that can get in and out, the better and more efficient the operation of the
product.
