Faber Hood Glassy 3D Baffle Filter Kitchen Chimney Review

Faber Hood Glassy 3D Baffle Filter Kitchen Chimney

Indian cooking involves a lot of frying and sautéing which releases a lot of grease during the process. This grease sticks to tiles, walls and cabinets, making the kitchen look grimy. To solve this problem, there are special chimneys available in the market. These chimneys are adept at sucking up smoke and expelling it outdoors. They remove oil droplets from the air and prevent grease from settling on surfaces. They also keep indoors fresh and free of cooking smells.

In this article, we are going to talk about the Faber Hood Glassy 3D T2S2 PB BK LTW, a top-selling chimney for Indian kitchens. It is made by Faber, a pioneer and world leader in kitchen appliances. Let us take a take a closer look at the technology and design of the Hood Glassy 3D.

Technology And Design:

The Faber Hood Glassy 3D is custom-made baffle chimney for Indian cooking. It has 3 layers of baffle filters which create a curved pathway for the smoke to maneuver. The filters work on the principle of ‘cut and chop’ which involves routing the air through a zig-zag path to make the air molecules suddenly chop and change direction in order to separate the oil particles from the smoke and water vapor. As the plumes of smoke journey through the machine, the oil and solid food particles stick to the surface of the filter while the hot air and vapor are vented out of the house.

The baffle filter panels are made from high-quality stainless steel. They are washable and reusable. We recommend cleaning them once every 3 or 4 months. The process is pretty simple. Just remove the panels and soak them in hot water for about 10 to 20 minutes. Then, scrub them gently with dishwashing liquid or soap, and rinse thoroughly under regular tap water. The panels don’t have to be replaced. They require very little maintenance and are meant to last a lifetime.

The Faber Hood Glassy 3D chimney has a unique 3D hood with T2S2 technology. It has a suction rate of 1095 m3/h which is ideal for oily cooking. The device has a 3-way suction mechanism which takes in smoke through the bottom panel right above the gas stove and two circular vents on the sides of the chimney on top.

The smoke that escapes the bottom inlet is sucked up by the side inlets. This design increases the suction area of the chimney by 25% and gives you 15% more grease reduction. It also makes for faster and stronger suction and lowers the noise by roughly 10 dB.

The appliance has a strong motor that generates powerful suction. It draws out all the smoke present in the room without leaving out any residue. The motor is long-lasting and operates noiselessly.

The Hood Glassy 3D chimney has two CFL LED lights of 5 watts each to illuminate the cooking area. It is high on brightness and provides excellent light distribution. It is made from superior material which ensures a longer life. It consumes less energy and generates less heat.

The gadget is low on noise and does not exceed 62 dB. It has an easy-to-use control panel with push buttons. There are 3 buttons for power and suction speed, and a separate button for light.

The Faber Hood Glassy 3D is a straight glass type chimney with a flat glass top. It has a steel and glass enclosure with a stylish glossy black finish. It is 60 cm wide in front, 52 cm deep and 72 cm tall. The chimney is suitable for cooktops with 2, 3 or 4 burners. It ventilates an area of 200 ft2 which is larger than an average Indian kitchen.
