STAINLESS STEEL BAFFLE FILTERS

About Your New Filters

Stainless Steel Baffle Filters do not need linings or mesh inside of the filters and are completely constructed out of stainless steel. The stainless steel construction allows them to be used again after being cleaned or going through the dishwasher.

How do Baffle Filters Work?

They function by forcing the grease filled air to quickly and continuously change direction as it passes through the filter. The grease is unable to change direction as fast as the air carrying them, they end up getting caught on the metal blades and then trapped into the filter tray. These filters are both efficient and require less maintenance.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

1. Do not install the range hood where there are many open doors or windows. This will cause reduced performance. (Fig. 1)
2. Install the range hood right above the cooktop. The optimal distance between the cooktop and lower edge of the range hood is 24” to 36”. (Fig. 2). Install at the height appropriate to your ceiling.  Make sure the chimney can still reach the ceiling. If your ceiling or preference requires installation to be a few inches higher or lower than 24-36″ you may do so without major loss of performance.
3. In order to get optimal performance, do not over extend the exhaust pipe and avoid unnecessary bending. (Fig. 3)
4. The air outlet must be connected to chimney flues or combustion gas ducts. Under no circumstances should the air outlet be connected to ventilation ducts for rooms in which fuel-burning appliances are installed.
