Q: What is the average life expectancy of a microwave?

• <div><p>Most microwaves last for around eight years; lower-end units may last as few as five, while higher-end microwaves could continue to work for ten or more years. A few factors will affect the lifespan of your small appliance:</p><ul><li><p>How many people in your home use the appliance</p></li><li><p>How often you use the microwave</p></li><li><p>Brand and quality</p></li><li><p>Whether or not you maintain it properly</p></li><li><p>Style of microwave</p></li><li><p>Professional or DIY installation</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What do I do with old appliances?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll need to unhook your old appliance but once you do, you can recycle it, donate it, sell it, reuse it, trade it in, or give it as a gift (provided it still works or is easy to fix). Most of the time when people are switching their appliances it&rsquo;s either because the old one broke or they are upgrading. If the item is broken, the best option is to recycle it. This may carry a cost based on the appliance or its weight. If the appliance still works, you may choose to sell it or gift it. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-to-do-with-old-appliances.htm">What you do with your old appliance</a> ultimately comes to whether it&rsquo;s still functioning.</p></div>

Q: Do wall ovens need to be vented?

• <div><p>The short answer is no, wall ovens do not need exterior venting. This is because ovens have internal vents which help dissipate the air and control the heat and fumes. Safety is important, which is why built-in ovens have systems inside of them that slowly purge heat and fumes. It is rare for a built-in oven to have a range hood with external ventilation, but this is common for stovetop/oven combination units as they don&rsquo;t possess the same internal venting technology as wall units.</p></div>

Q: Do tankless water heaters increase the electric bill?

• <div><p>Tankless water heaters won&rsquo;t increase your electric bill. Since tankless water heaters are more efficient than tank water heaters, installing one in your home will actually allow you to save money on your electric bill. The Department of Energy estimates you can save $100 or more each year with a high-efficiency tankless water heater. </p></div>

Q: What ongoing maintenance does a microwave oven require?

• <div><p>Regular cleaning, checking ventilation paths, and ensuring correct voltage or power settings maintain efficiency and reduce repair risks.</p></div>

Appliance Sales questions, answered by experts

Most microwaves last for around eight years; lower-end units may last as few as five, while higher-end microwaves could continue to work for ten or more years. A few factors will affect the lifespan of your small appliance:

How many people in your home use the appliance
How often you use the microwave
Brand and quality
Whether or not you maintain it properly
Style of microwave
Professional or DIY installation

You’ll need to unhook your old appliance but once you do, you can recycle it, donate it, sell it, reuse it, trade it in, or give it as a gift (provided it still works or is easy to fix). Most of the time when people are switching their appliances it’s either because the old one broke or they are upgrading. If the item is broken, the best option is to recycle it. This may carry a cost based on the appliance or its weight. If the appliance still works, you may choose to sell it or gift it. What you do with your old appliance ultimately comes to whether it’s still functioning.

The short answer is no, wall ovens do not need exterior venting. This is because ovens have internal vents which help dissipate the air and control the heat and fumes. Safety is important, which is why built-in ovens have systems inside of them that slowly purge heat and fumes. It is rare for a built-in oven to have a range hood with external ventilation, but this is common for stovetop/oven combination units as they don’t possess the same internal venting technology as wall units.
