- Air intake occurs via the plinth  at
the bottom of the appliance and the
air escapes at the top  at the back
of the housing unit.
- A ventilation gap of at least 40mm
depth must be allowed behind the
refrigeration appliance for air to
circulate.
- The ventilation cross-sections in the
plinth, housing unit and above the
appliance must each provide an
unobstructed airflow of at least
200cm² to ensure that warm air can
circulate without hindrance.
If ventilation grilles are to be inserted
into the ventilation gaps, the
ventilation gaps must be larger than
200cm². The unobstructed airflow of
200cm² is calculated by adding up
the total area of ventilation openings
in the grilles.
- Important. The larger the ventilation
gaps, the less energy the refrigeration
appliance will use.
The ventilation gaps must not be
covered or blocked in any way. They
must also be regularly dusted.
Top ventilation gap
The ventilation gap at the top of the
appliance can be constructed in
different ways:
a
directly above the appliance with a
ventilation grille (free airflow of at
least 200cm²)
b
between the kitchen furniture and
the ceiling
c
in a suspended ceiling
