K28 rangehood
90cm wall-mounted canopy with
telescopic chimney
code 3146
ID020608
DUCTING
Extracting the air direct to atmosphere ensures the maximum removal
of grease/oil/particle-laden vapour, odours and, very importantly,
the heat, resulting in a cleaner, more comfortable cooking
environment. An internal ducting pipe could, ideally, continue in a
straight line within the decorative flue to the kitchen roof, then through
the roof cavity and exit via a roof cowl.
If the rangehood is mounted against an internal wall, the ducting
could, as effectively, exit at the rear anywhere along the vertical line
of the concealing decorative flue and at a position that is structurally
feasible for an external wall cowl.
RECIRCULATION
When cooking vapours cannot be ducted to the atmosphere, that is,
the rangehood is mounted on an internal wall and/or there is another
storey above, the supplied recirculation panel is inserted into the
telescopic flue
CHARCOAL FILTERS
In the recirculation mode, the rangehood is also sending cooking
odours back into the kitchen. An activated charcoal filter disc can
be fitted to each side of the centrifugal motor (part number for pair
0899801) to effectively diminish the cooking odours. They are not to
be washed and are replaceable.
DUCTED MATERIAL
The smooth internal walls of either galvanised sheetmetal piping or
high temperature resistant PVC will assist in both greater unobstructed
air flow and quieter operation. Flexible ducting can be considered
for the very short run and difficult bends.
APPLICATION
Designed for wall mounting above a cooktop, the K28, with two-
part telescopic flue, is perfect for kitchens with heights to 2690mm
(approximately 8’10”). Small increments in greater than 2690mm
heights can be gained by increasing the bench height and/or
increasing the gap between the underside of the hood and benchtop.
PERFORMANCE
With a true net air extraction of 797m
³
/hr net an hour, the more
vigorous styles of cooking, such as pasta boiling, griddle and stir
frying, are catered for. At the touch of the speed control, the power
can be switched down for the gentlest of simmers.
LOW MAINTENANCE
Easy cleaning is a premium with wipe-over 18/10 grade stainless
steel surface. A single lift-out stainless steel and aluminium four-ply
grease filter can be hand washed. The lighting and speed controls
are underslung and forward away from most of the vapour trail and
there is easy access to the twin light globes.
QUIETNESS
44 to 60 dBA. The motor/impellor encasement and internal flue
are smooth-walled to eliminate air drag and noise, hand-finished
welded metal joins for no vibration.
SAFETY
Thermal overload protector or motor; fire-retardant hardened metal
and mesh. VO self-extinguishing polycarbonate for motor housing
and internal flue.
