Good evening everyone,

Today the installation of our kitchen was completed. An AEG Flexbridge 2-in-1 induction cooktop with a recirculating extractor hood was installed. Due to the cabinet layout and appliance components, this is set up as an "unguided recirculation" system. My kitchen fitter did not create a slot in the plinth or similar. According to him, the air escapes through the cabinets and so on.
Google tells me that the after-run function is important to keep the area dry after cooking.

Are there any professionals here who can approve this installation situation?
I have attached a photo.

Thanks in advance.
Good luck
Modern kitchen with light cabinets, built-in oven and microwave, dark floor

I hope the installer cut a hole in the back panel
You can hold your phone underneath, take a picture, and see if you can spot anything from the back of the furniture or the room wall 😉

Exactly, pull out the drawer, use a flashlight or phone light, and you can see what was done inside the box.
