Get rid of odors with charcoal (Sold Separately)
When the vent hood is installed in recirculation mode, the air is picked up and passes through multiple filters including the charcoal filter that absorbs odors. This freshened air is then pushed back into the kitchen. Over time, activated charcoal particles saturate and stop blocking off odors leaving your kitchen with strong smells.

• Convertable with accessory kit (separate purchase required)

✅ Pros

  Packs 400 CFM airflow into a slim, compact 24″ design, making it perfect for smaller kitchens while effectively handling moderate to heavy cooking.
• 🔁 Flexible Fan Control
  Four-speed fan settings offer precise control—from gentle simmering to more intensive extraction needs.
• 🔆 Bright, Efficient LED Lighting
  Two integrated LED lamps provide clear, energy-efficient lighting over the cooktop, enhancing visibility and ambiance.

  Aluminum mesh filters are dishwasher-safe—easy to remove, clean, and maintain.
• 📦 Under-Cabinet Integration
  Pull-out mechanism tucks under cabinetry when not in use and provides a clean, modern look.
• 🧰 Quiet Performance

❌ Cons

• 📏 Limited Coverage Area
  The 24″ width may not fully cover larger or wider cooktop surfaces—steam or odors might escape during high-intensity cooking.
• ⚙️ Manual Operation Only
  No automatic sensors or timed shutoff functions—settings are fully manual and require user operation throughout cooking.
• ⚙️ No Recirculation Kit Included
  If a ducted setup isn’t possible, you’ll need to purchase a separate charcoal filter kit.
• 🔧 Potential Durability Concerns
  As with many pull-out designs, the sliding mechanism may wear with heavy use over many years.
• ✨ Design Constraints
  The flat, pull-out panel may not integrate perfectly with thicker cabinet face frames; proper fitment is important.
