Ventilation System Installation

When Borg & Overström undercounter units are installed inside a cabinet or housing, adequate ventilation is essential to ensure that they operate satisfactorily. During a cooling cycle it is normal for the unit to produce heat, and the purpose of ventilation is to provide a supply of air that can absorb the generated heat which would otherwise accumulate inside the cabinet or housing, and reduce the cooling performance of the unit. The amount

of heat generated by the cooling cycle depends directly upon the amount of usage – the higher the usage, the  more heat produced. To provide adequate ventilation, this unit must be installed with a Simple-fit Vent Kit to facilitate air flow. Normally this should be enough for all situations.

Important: Before making any cuts into the cupboard or kick board, ensure the area to be cut is free from water pipes or electrical cables. There is a risk of serious injury or death if electrical cables are cut, and significant damage to property if a water pipe is cut.

Using the template provided, carefully mark and cut the aperture to the edge of the cabinet.
