8. Installation instructions
The PlasmaMade Airfilter may be used on almost all existing and new-installation
extractor hood units. The extractor hood must fulfil the following points:
•
Extractor hood must be suitable for recirculation (the duct must feature
openings through which the filtered air can be returned back into the room).
We do not recommend these openings to be directed at the wall or ceiling.
Provide a gap of at least 500 mm in between.
•
Set the electronic control of the hood to recirculation mode, if the control is
not available here than using the hood at position 1 or 2. If the engine capacity
is higher than 600 m3
•
Top of motor housing to top of duct must be at least 400 mm.
•
We recommend respecting a minimum distance from hob to bottom of
extractor unit (due to the heat production from the hob) of:
Induction/ceramic
Gas hob
Gas wok, 3.2 - > 6 kW
•
A mains socket within a suitable distance (220 V, no earth needed).
•
We recommend you to treat the steel parts and/or components in the inner
side of the hood against corrosion by moisture. This is often the case with
lower quality hoods that aren't built with galvanized or stainless steel.
Note:
If the extractor unit is mounted at a smaller distance above the hob, the
PlasmaMade Airfilter's guarantee is invalidated.
