COOKERS HOODS THAT COMBINE STYLE, PERFORMANCE & INSTALLATION FLEXIBILITY

FRANKE’S COOKER HOODS

COMBINE STYLE, HIGH PERFORMANCE & INSTALLATION FLEXIBILITY

With the rise in people working and cooking more at home, efficient and quiet extraction is a more important consideration than ever. Franke is perfectly placed to meet this demand with its wide-ranging hoods portfolio which has been designed to meet every need, taste and budget and to offer installation flexibility.

 EASY INSTALLATION

As the owner of Faber, the world’s largest cooker hood manufacturer, Franke has drawn on this design and technical expertise to offer an impressive range of hob extractors, downdraft, wall mounted, island, ceiling and under cabinet models in a choice of colours, sizes and materials, and offering installation options for any kitchen layout.

The expansion of the range over the past 12 months has opened up the scope for installers when recommending products to clients that look stylish, are high performance and which are easy to install. Each hood category has models available to suit ducted or recirculatory installation and all but two of the hoods in Franke’s portfolio are designed with the flexibility to be operated in both modes. This offers consumers the freedom to have the design they want in any position in their kitchen.  HIGH PERFORMANCE

Franke’s high-performance hoods feature cutting-edge technology to make them highly efficient as well as easy to use. Technical features evident across the range include a choice of speed settings, builtin LED lighting, easy to use touch controls and a 24-hour ventilation option which allows the user to set an extraction cycle at a particular speed. Many models have an energy label of A or higher, answering the call for more eco-friendly and energy efficient products in the home.

 BROAD DESIGN CHOICE

Franke’s hoods portfolio offers a broad choice of designs ranging from colourful retro models aimed at a younger market to smooth and streamlined wall mounted designs with lots of functionality that have wide appeal. In the upper segment of the market, uniquely hand sculpted glass designs are a draw for luxury purchasers.

In larger kitchens with an island cooking area, island freestanding hoods create a focal point for the space. The ceiling-mounted Crystal Island hood is a timeless addition to the Franke range with its stylish material mix of black glass front and rear panels, elegantly complementing the main stainless-steel body.

Crystal Island features touch controls, four energy efficient LED lights and offers three speeds plus intensive, with an extraction rate of 700 m³/h at intensive speed with a noise level of 69dB.

Built in extractors like the discreet Atmos Steam Off work well in kitchens where space is more limited. It sits completely flush under cabinets and captures steam and fumes from induction and gas hobs alike. The patented Steam Control System suppresses condensation by actively channelling airflow above the worktop, while a separate anti-condensation button pushes a dual vortex of air downwards through the central vent forcing steam from pans into the hood even faster.

Franke offers a wide range of wall mounted hoods in a variety of styles and colours to suit both modern and traditional kitchens. One option is the colourful Smart Deco hood which is available in Green, Soft Grey and Mustard. This stylish and economical hood offers the flexibility to coordinate with sinks, taps and furniture to create a modern retro look. It features a push button rotary control with dimmable LED light bar, offers three speeds with an extraction rate of 650 m³/h at maximum speed and is rated A for energy efficiency.
