Extraction Mode Or Recirculation Mode - Baumatic AS35SS Instruction Manual

COOKER HOOD- extraction mode or recirculation
mode?
What is the difference between
extraction and recirculation
modes?
To get optimum performance from your cooker, the air will
be taken out of the room via external ducting.
Unfortunately if you live in a flat or the hood is too far from
an outside wall, this may not be possible. The only
alternative is to recirculate the air.
In recirculation mode stale air is taken via the grease filter,
and passed through a charcoal filter for purification. The air
then re-enters the kitchen via an opening in the hood.
What is a charcoal filter and do I
need one?
All cooker hoods have a grease filter but if you are using
your cooker hood in recirculation mode, then a charcoal filter
must be fitted in addition to the grease filter.
