Extraction and everyday performance
The hood provides three selectable fan speeds, ranging from 328 m³/h at the lowest setting to 588 m³/h at the highest. This gives useful flexibility for lighter cooking as well as more demanding extraction needs.
Noise output is listed at 50 dB(A) on the lowest speed and 65 dB(A) at maximum. The three aluminium anti-grease filters and non-return valve are useful practical features for regular cooking.
Installation, controls and lighting
Ducted and recirculating installation options make the hood adaptable to different kitchen layouts. The stated 150mm vent outlet should be considered when planning external ducting, while recirculating installation requires suitable active charcoal filters.
Slider controls keep operation uncomplicated, and the two 1W LED lights can be switched independently of the fan. With an average cooking-surface illumination of 164 lux, they should provide helpful visibility over the hob.
Design and efficiency
The brushed stainless-steel chimney design is intended for wall mounting and measures 900mm wide, making it particularly suitable for broader cooking areas. The listed minimum clearances are 750mm above a gas hob and 650mm above an electric hob.
The hood has a B energy-efficiency rating, an A lighting-efficiency rating and reported annual energy consumption of 54 kWh. These figures indicate a balanced specification for a full-width cooker hood.
