ELICA LAUNCHES NEW CYCLONIC COOKER HOOD
Cyclone is a new high spec extractor, which debuted at the KBB exhibition earlier this month. This wall-mounted re-circulating hood has a radically new approach to air filtering and was developed to achieve optimal performance in a small package with reduced energy consumption. Using cyclonic technology, it extracts grease from the kitchen air without needing to pass the air through a large area of filtering mesh, which can become blocked and lose effectiveness until it is cleaned. It’s also available in three finishes – black, carbon and white. elica.com
