Ductless recirculation is intended for applications where an exhaust duct work is not possible to be installed.
When converted, the hood functions as a recirculating hood rather than an exhaust hood. Fumes and exhaust
from cooking are drawn and filtered by a set of optional charcoal filter. The air is then purified and recirculated
back within the home.
We recommend to ALWAYS exhaust air outside of the home by employing existing or installing new duct work, if
possible. The hood is most effective and efficient as an exhaust hood. Only when the exhaust option is not
possible you should convert the hood into a recirculation hood.
When converted to be a recirculating hood, a set of charcoal filter is required on top of the aluminum grease filters.
Order according to its part number below. The aluminum grease filters are intended to capture residue from cooking
and the optional charcoal filter help to purify fumes exhausted from cooking for recirculation.
