Downdraft vent with slide-in range??
Comments (51)Ahem. I believe flex aluminum ducting, as the above image appears to show, is prohibited for grease contaminated ducts. They have to be steel to resist fire penetration. Even if one chooses to ignore code, for safety's sake please routinely inspect and replace if build-up is detected. Alternatively, if the ducting were surrounded by steel in both cavities -- such as metal on all the cabinet surfaces -- it might be passible....See MoreSlide in range in an island
Comments (10)phillyhaus: I found these insturctions by celticmoon to be very easy to follow. Couldn't understand any of the other instructions! I'd love to see pictures, if you have the time. OK here's the new, even more broken down version: "How do I embed a picture in my post? Your picture needs first to live somewhere on the Internet. Then you type the pictureÂs Internet address into your message and the picture appears right in your post in the spot where you typed that address code. HereÂs how to do it - explained step by step for those new to posting. (Quick and dirty version for advanced users to be added soon): -First get your pictures into the Internet: Photobucket is one free, easy and widely used photo-storing site. There are others but weÂll go with this one. Go to Photobucket.com. and open a free account. Your home page is ÂMy AlbumÂ. There are long blank boxes on the right with Âbrowse buttons next to them. Click on Âbrowse and poke around to find the picture on your hard drive or (connected) camera drive. Click one to select it, and the Âbrowse button is replaced by a red Âremove , and a tiny version of your picture appears to the left. You can give your picture a title in the box if you like. Next click on the Âupload button just below. Site will tell you upload is occuring. Then you should be able to scroll down and see the picture living in your Internet album. Continue to move pictures from your digital camera or from your computer. Each then will have its own Internet address. -Next resize your picture: This is important etiquette - otherwise your picture will post giant and make people have to scroll to the right to read every line of the thread. Not cool. So be nice and resize your picture first. Above your picture in Photobucket, click on the blue Âedit button. This opens a window with your picture. Above the picture, click on ÂresizeÂ. Select Âwebsize for a regular size and Âmessage board for larger to show more detail. Confirm in the popup warning box. You should see your picture resized. -Post the picture in your message: Go to your picture in Photobucket. Look on the right for four boxes, each with computer code related to your picture. The third one down is the HTLM tag that looks like >ahref =http Copy that line of code and paste it right into the body of your message on the Kitchen Forum. Not into the boxes at the bottom, right into the messsage you are typing. Check if it worked: Click on the Preview button to see your message. That address code should have been replaced with the actual picture. If the sizing isnÂt right try clicking your Ârefresh button. Sometimes Photobucket is slow.

Comments (8)On a related note, I posted this in the appliances forum but got no response: I've noticed that all the slide-ins I'm considering offer a metal piece to go behind the stove if you don't have countertop there. Now, obviously from an aesthetics standpoint, countertop is the way to go, but is there any disadvantage to one or the other structually? (I'm doing a majorly small budget redo and life would be a lot simpler if we don't have to do a cutout--we could use prefab then and wouldn't have so many seams to deal with.)...See Morewhy are slide-in gas ranges so much more expensive?
Comments (4)I think the two biggest reasons are: 1) Engineering - Additional design complexity required to keep the electronics cool when they're placed immediately above the oven rather than above and behind the oven. 2) Marketing - Folks interested in the look self-select as folks that are willing to pay extra for that look, so the products fill that niche....See Moremariofo
