USES
The appliance is already arranged both for filtering and for suction performances.
In its filtering version (Fig.1), the air and fumes conveyed by the appliance are clea-
ned both by a grease filter and by an active coal filter, and put again into circulation
through the side-grids of the chimney.
In its sucking version (Fig.2), fumes are directly conveyed outside, through an eva-
cuation duct connected with the superior part of the wall or the ceiling. Both coal
filter and air deflector are not necessary in this case.
