The grease filter is made of aluminum and can be cleaned in the dishwasher or even - to be replaced - if need be.
It is possible either with activated carbon filters to use the cooker hood in recirculation home or to connect it to an exhaust duct and for directing the contaminated air outside. Activated carbon filters, however, are not included. For us, the use as a recirculation hood did not come in any case in question, because while the cleaned air is transported back into the kitchen. This will keep the moisture produced during cooking in the room, which can lead to mold growth. If you replace the active carbon filter every four to six months and will be with us every day cooked often repeatedly goes the long run rather expensive. Although an exhaust duct must be installed for use as a vent hood, which has meant a wall opening in our case. But the benefits outweigh:
- There are no follow-up costs through the replacement of activated carbon filters
- The air is fed directly outside. Thus, the degree of purity is greater.
- Less noise because the air flow is not affected by an activated carbon filter.
In the long term, the investment will pay off in any case.
