NOISE LEVELS & EXTRACTION LEVELS
All KLEENAIR fan motor unit operates at maximum external sound pressure level between 43dB(A) and 76dB(A). The internal
operation of the systems will have a varying sound level dependent on the style of hood, the motor option selected, the acoustics
of the environment and the installation method used. It was established through testing, in accordance with the Australian
Standards, that the internal noise level varied between 33dB(A) and 65dB(A) on the air movement settings available.
It is important to understand that whilst WHISPAIR rangehoods offer quieter operational noise levels due to the positioning of the
motor remotely to the primary cooking environment, the noise levels as a consequence of air movement or ‘wind’ noise are
equivalent to other premium hoods in the Australian and New Zealand market place, although it must be noted that the extraction
levels are significantly higher.

SERVICING
The installation and fitting of the rangehood should be done in such a way that will allow the unit to be removed if service is
required. Additional costs incurred in the removal, such as damage to walls, are not covered under warranty.
It is expected that the stainless steel is cleaned with a quality non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. The baffle filters and grease
trap are removable and dishwasher safe. It is recommended that these items be cleaned regularly.
The KLEENAIR unit should be checked regularly to ensure that nothing is obstructing the air flow from the housing.
