Sunflame Innova 90cm Auto Clean Chimney
If you are someone who loves cooking, you probably know the amount of work that goes into cleaning a kitchen after the cooking is done. Oil smoke can be a real bummer. It clings to everything from appliances and cabinets to walls and ceilings. If not cleaned regularly, your kitchen looks sooty, and over time your cabinets and appliances become coated in grease.
Although there is no perfect solution for this, one way to reduce smoke in your kitchen is to install a kitchen chimney. A chimney is an electric gadget that sucks up cooking fumes and directs it towards the outside environment through ducts. It keeps your tiled and marbled surfaces grease-free, and your appliances spotlessly clean.
In this article, we would like to introduce you to the Sunflame Innova 90 cm Auto Clean chimney. It is a commonly seen chimney in Indian households. It is great at eliminating oil smoke. Let us take a look at the features and functions of the gadget.
Features And Functions
The Sunflame Innova 90 cm is one of the best kitchen chimneys you can get your hands on. It uses a combination of baffle and activated carbon filters to remove smoke. The chimney has a smart Heat Auto Clean function which makes cleaning the device much easier. The sleek cabinet and easy-to-use touch buttons also add to the aesthetics and usability.
The Innova 90 has a suction capacity of 1100 cubic meter per hour. It can ventilate a 200 square feet kitchen in no time. It is suitable for small to medium-sized kitchens where food is cooked regularly.
The chimney has a baffle filter and an activated charcoal filter. The baffle filter is instrumental in intercepting liquid particles like oil and solid particles like spices from the incoming smoke. These particles remain embedded in the filter panel while the steam and other gases are expelled out of the house.
The many-layered curved paths within the baffle filter force the air to change direction suddenly resulting in the separation of the solid and fluid from the gaseous matter. This type of filtration is ideal for oil-based cooking methods. Indian cooking which involves a lot of sautéing and frying is best handled by baffle filters.
The charcoal filter is there for removing pungent cooking smells. It absorbs odor-causing organic matter and refreshes the air in the kitchen. Together with the baffle filter, it controls sneeze-inducing aromas and reduces smoke.
The Innova 90 is a wall-mountable and ducted chimney. It has a minimalistic stainless steel frame with a curved glass hood. The hood is 90 cm wide and is designed for hobtops with 3 to 5 burners. It is capable of ejecting smoke released from multiple burners at the same time.
Suction speed of the chimney can be regulated between 3 levels. The canopy is fitted with energy-efficient LED lights that keep the cooking counter lit up. It helps you see better and cook better. The front panel of the glass hood features a display screen and feather-touch controls.
The chimney has a powerful motor that generates a suction of 1100 m3/h. It is sufficient for ventilating a medium-sized Indian kitchen. It does not create a lot of noise and seldom exceeds 62 dB.
The USP of the Sunflame Innova is that it comes with an oil collector for storing excess grease that accumulates in the baffle filter. It has an Auto Clean mechanism that uses heat to liquefy the hardened oil droplets on the panel. Once the oil turns to liquid, it trickles down and collects inside the oil collection chamber. You can then dispose the contents and clean the chamber.
The chimney is washable. You can remove the baffle filter and wash it with water. For best results, we recommend soaking the panel in hot water for a few minutes. You can use any detergent or soap. Scrub the panel gently with a scrubber and wash off under a faucet. Allow the panel to dry before securing it back into the hood.
The product has a warranty of one year.
