Quiet Kitchen Hood
How can silent extraction be achieved?
The heart of the hood is the motor which determines its extraction capacity. For good extraction, the power of the motor must be suitable for the shape, type and size of the hood.
The motor can be fitted inside the hood. In this case, to reduce its noise level, it must be a top quality one. If you want to further reduce noise, a remote motor can be installed outside, taking care to fit a duct that avoids air vortex formations that could make the hood very noisy.
All Valcucine hoods have an inside motor of at least 750m (volume of air extracted in an hour). If the hood is particularly large, the power is increased by fiitting two motors.
On request, all Valcucine hoods can be fitted with a remote motor instead of an inside one.
For excellent results, Valcucine recommends the use of a remote motor of the same brand as the extractor hood.
