Elica Pro Series Leone Range Hood

Yes, the Leone features a convertible ventilation system, meaning it can be installed as either a ducted unit or a ductless (recirculating) system. If you choose the ductless route, ensure you have the necessary charcoal filter kit for proper air purification.

This model has a 24-inch depth, which is specifically designed to provide full coverage for high-output professional ranges and cooktops. This extra depth is crucial for capturing grease and smoke that might otherwise escape from the front burners.

The integrated heat sensor acts as a safety measure by monitoring the temperature around the hood. If it detects excessive heat, it automatically adjusts the fan speed to ensure proper ventilation and protect the unit's components.

Yes, the stainless steel baffle filters are designed for easy maintenance and can be cleaned in your dishwasher. We recommend cleaning them regularly to maintain optimal airflow and prevent grease buildup.

The noise level ranges from 1.7 to 7 sones depending on the fan speed. While the lower settings are quite quiet for everyday cooking, you can expect a noticeable hum on the highest setting, which is typical for a 600 CFM professional-grade hood.

The unit includes the hood, baffle filters, and LED lighting, but it does not include ductwork or the specific recirculation kit required for ductless installations. You will need to purchase those components separately based on your specific kitchen configuration.
