Extraction performance and noise
This Novy 7640 cooker hood offers three fan speeds plus a power setting, with stated ducted airflow rising from 277 m³/h at speed 1 to 707 m³/h on power. Perimeter extraction is intended to draw cooking vapours effectively while keeping the canopy visually slim.
Low-speed sound pressure is specified at 24 dB(A), increasing to 41 dB(A) at speed 3 and 44 dB(A) at maximum power. The integrated sound absorber is a useful addition for open-plan spaces, although maximum extraction will naturally be more audible than normal low-speed use.
Lighting, controls and convenience
The warm 2700K LED system provides 581 lux across the cooking surface, giving the island a softer ambience than cooler task lighting while still illuminating the hob area. Push-button controls provide access to the fan settings and lighting.
Novy InTouch is included for control from a compatible hob. The power setting automatically returns to a lower setting after six minutes, and delayed switch-off continues for ten minutes. Automatic operation is not provided, so fan control remains manual or hob-linked.
Installation and efficiency
This 900mm-wide, 600mm-deep hood supports ducted or recirculating installation and uses a top-mounted 150mm duct outlet. The supplied reversible chimney supports recirculation, but the optional recirculation kit is an additional installation consideration.
An A+ energy rating and class A fluid dynamic efficiency indicate a strong efficiency profile for an island extractor. The hood weighs 37.5kg, so the available product information should be checked alongside the planned mounting arrangement and the specified clearance above the hob.
