Figure 3: Technical drawing with installation dimensions (all measurements in mm).
4.2 driftstilstande
The hood can operate in two modes:
- Exhaust Air (Ducted): Air is extracted from the kitchen and expelled outside through a ducting system. This mode requires a grease filter mat.
- Recirculation Air (Ductless): Air is filtered and then returned to the kitchen. This mode requires both a grease filter mat and an activated carbon filter mat (sold separately) to remove odors.
