Abstract

A microwave range having a hood for removing contaminated air includes a chamber and first and second vent fan assemblies respectively positioned at opposite lateral sides of the chamber. The first and second vent fan assemblies draw contaminated air in through an air inlet located on a bottom surface of the microwave range below the chamber, and exhaust the air drawn in through the air inlet.
