Know before you buy
When you need ventilation, the glass canopy extends outward from the cabinetry. When you are finished cooking, it slides back into a flush, integrated position for a clean, minimalist look.
Yes, this model is convertible. It can be set up for recirculating ventilation using a charcoal filter, making it a great option for kitchens where venting to the outside is not possible.
This unit is designed to handle cooktops with a total output of up to 65,000 BTUs. It features a 4-speed centrifugal blower and a 5-minute boost mode to effectively clear heavy smoke or odors.
The Auto On feature detects when the glass canopy is extended and automatically activates the ventilation system. It simplifies operation so you can focus on your cooking without manually toggling the fan.
This hood requires a 6-inch round duct for external venting. Ensure your kitchen layout can accommodate this size to maintain optimal airflow and performance.
The hood uses charcoal filters for recirculating air. Depending on your cooking habits, these should be replaced periodically to ensure the system continues to effectively remove odors and grease.
