Extraction performance and noise
This Novy 829 Essence cooker hood provides four ducted extraction levels, ranging from 199m³/h to 521m³/h. That gives useful adjustment for everyday simmering through to stronger cooking odours across a wider hob.
The stated sound power level rises from 34dB(A) at the lowest speed to 58dB(A) at the highest. This makes the lower settings the more suitable choice when keeping background noise down is important.
Design, controls and lighting
This is a 90cm built-in hood designed to sit within a decorative canopy or alcove. Its stainless-steel finish, integrated motor and push-button controls support a straightforward, discreet installation.
The integrated 2700K LED system has a stated nominal power of 7.4W and average illumination of 278 lux. The warm colour temperature should provide a softer appearance over the cooking area than a cooler white light.
Installation flexibility and filtration
The hood supports ducted extraction and optional recirculation using the compatible carbon filter system. That makes it more adaptable to kitchens where creating an external ventilation route is difficult.
Two grease filters are specified, and the available product information identifies the relevant grease-filter and recirculation-filter references. Buyers should confirm compatibility and installation requirements before fitting.
