1. What are rangehoods?
A rangehood (also known as a kitchen hood, exhaust hood or exhaust fan) is a device that is installed over stoves or cooktops, containing a motorised fan to extract cooking grease, smoke, steam and odours.
2. How do rangehoods work?
Rangehoods capture and extract airborne grease, smoke and oil particles, cooking steam and odours. These unwanted particles are captured in filters, before the exhaust is re-circulated or vented through the ducting to the outdoors. High quality filters help prevent the same from collecting on your cabinetry, walls and ceiling while you cook. When working effectively, rangehoods help keep your kitchen newer and fresher for longer.
3. How do silent rangehoods work?
If you struggle to converse over the sound of your rangehood as you cook.
You are going to love the new range of Silent Rangehoods.
Installing the motor outside your home ensures silence in your kitchen.
Conventional rangehoods have the motor and fan installed within the hood body.
Silent rangehoods have their motors installed outside your home.
Doing so means the externally-mounted fans extract cooking exhaust in one seamless energy-efficient pull.
Conventional systems need to pull exhaust in through the canopy.
Then push it down the ducting to the outdoors, introducing turbulence and noise as they do so.
Installed correctly and used at the lower speeds, silent rangehoods cannot be heard over the ambient noise in the kitchen.
At higher speeds, wind noise may be heard, depending on the distance of the motor from the silent rangehood.
A Silent Rangehood with an externally (1600 m3/hour airflow) mounted motor with variable speed levels can deliver these results;
- Level 1-3 (Heavy Cooking): comparable to the airflow noise from a laptop/computer fan.
- Level 4-5 (Boost Mode): Quiet hiss of airflow similar to an split system air conditioner.
What are the available rangehood styles?
A rangehood is in many ways, the crowning glory to your cooktop.
Together, they influence the character of your cooking space, and define your kitchen aesthetic.
A carefully considered rangehood can look masterful, whilst the opposite can threaten the overall success of your kitchen design and functionality.
With an array of styles available, selecting the right rangehood can get very confusing.
