All about: Recirculating rangehoods

Whether you are remodeling your kitchen or building a new apartment, it’s highly recommended that you install a recirculating rangehood.  They easy to install because they don’t requiring ducting on the wall or ceiling.

Unlike a ducted rangehood, which vents air to the outside, a recirculating rangehood consists of a fan with a charcoal filter that sucks up grease particles, heat, smells, and smoke, filters it, and then recirculates it back into the kitchen.

Here are some of the top benefits:

Environmentally friendly
Ikon’s recirculating options for rangehoods are environment-friendly due to the fact that the heated or conditioned air they filter is not released to the atmosphere.

The steam, heat, and smoke that are produced in the kitchen won’t be released outside of the kitchen. They suck up most of these particles and filter them. In essence, they’re a form of air recycling. 

Affordable
Buying one won’t cut deep into your pockets. This is because you don’t have to create ducts in your kitchen or pay for any additional ducting accessories.

With advances in technology, nowadays Carbon Filters last longer and be can regenerated by placing them in the oven – in fact, most of Ikon rangehoods offer this option.

Versatile
Recirculating rangehoods are not only a sustainable option, but they are also a versatile option that is ideal for concrete ceilings and apartments. This is because ducting isn’t required and there are no holes to cut out.

Being ductless, they suit apartments when there is no external wall, so you don’t need to worry about installing it near any pipe or ducts that reach the outside.

Easy to install
Because there isn’t any ducting to install, they only require a power source. This makes recirculating rangehoods a fantastic option for remodelling projects.
