Ranges at a glance

Wall-mounted hoods

Built-in hoods

Hidden in the cabinet for a minimalist look while keeping solid extraction. Good fit for sleek kitchens.

Island hoods

For central islands and open-plan spaces; 360° capture and a clean cylindrical design.
Example: KROGH ROR B — Ø 39 cm, 760 m³/h, 256 W, 46–60 dB, 2×LED (3 W), soft-touch panel, timer, boost, remote control.

How to choose the right size

Match the width: 60 or 90 cm to fully cover the hob.
Keep safe distances: ≥ 65 cm above electric hobs; ≥ 70 cm above gas.
Calculate airflow: target 10–12× the room volume.
- Example: 20 m² × 2.5 m height = 50 m³ → aim for ≥ 500–600 m³/h.
Mind the duct: recommended Ø150 mm; reducing diameter increases noise and cuts performance.
Pick the mode:
- Extraction (ducted outside) = best performance.
- Recirculation = use charcoal filter FWK 228 / 240 and replace regularly.

Care & maintenance

Wash aluminum grease filters every 2–3 months (low-temp dishwasher cycle is fine).
Replace charcoal filters every 4–6 months depending on use.
Wipe body/glass with a soft cloth and mild cleaner.
Let the hood run 10–15 minutes after cooking to clear residual odors.

FAQ

Is recirculation effective?
Yes—grease is trapped by the aluminum filter; odors are neutralized by charcoal. Efficiency stays high with timely filter care.

Are the LEDs efficient?
They consume very little power, last long, and light the cooking zone evenly.
