ZLINE 695-304 Range Hood Insert

Yes, this model is specifically engineered for outdoor environments. It is constructed from 304-grade stainless steel, which offers superior resistance to rust and corrosion compared to standard stainless steel, making it durable enough to withstand the elements.

The stainless steel baffle filters are dishwasher-safe, which makes maintenance straightforward. For best results, simply remove them and run them through a cycle in your dishwasher to remove accumulated grease.

Yes, this insert requires a 6-inch diameter duct. It is important to ensure your venting setup matches this size to maintain proper airflow and performance.

The delayed shut-off timer allows the fan to continue running for a set period after you have finished cooking. This ensures that any lingering smoke, grease, or odors are fully cleared from your outdoor cooking area before the unit turns itself off.

While this unit is designed for outdoor use, it can technically be installed indoors. However, because it is built to outdoor specifications, it may be overkill for a standard indoor kitchen, and you should verify that your cabinet dimensions align with the 28-inch width and 15-inch depth of the insert.

While noise levels can vary based on your specific ductwork installation, the 4-speed motor is designed to balance high-performance extraction with reasonable noise levels. Using lower speeds for light cooking will significantly reduce the sound output compared to the maximum setting.
