ZLINE RK30 Recirculating Kit

This kit allows you to use your ZLINE under-cabinet range hood without needing to vent air outside. It uses a charcoal filter to clean the air of grease and odors before recirculating it back into your kitchen.

The RK30 is specifically designed for ZLINE's 30-inch under-cabinet models, including the 520-30, 523-30, and 527-30. It will not fit other models or sizes, so please verify your hood's model number before purchasing.

No, that is the main benefit of this kit. It is designed for ductless operation, meaning you can install your range hood without cutting holes in your walls or ceiling for exterior venting.

The charcoal filter acts as a chemical sponge, trapping grease particles and neutralizing cooking odors as air passes through it. It is essential for maintaining air quality in a ductless setup, though you will need to replace the filter periodically to keep it effective.

It is an excellent solution for kitchens where exterior venting is impossible, such as in apartments or homes where structural changes are restricted. However, keep in mind that recirculating air is generally less efficient at removing heat and moisture than venting directly outside.
