5. Setup and Installation
The Elica FL 750 SLIM HAC MS NERO is a wall-mounted chimney. Professional installation is recommended.
5.1 Pre-Installation Checks
- Ensure the wall is strong enough to support the chimney's weight (approximately 11 kg).
- Verify that the power outlet is within reach and meets the 220V AC requirement.
- Maintain a minimum distance between the cooking surface and the chimney as specified in local regulations or the installation guide.
5.2 Installation Type
This chimney supports two installation modes:
- Ducted Mode: Smoke and odors are expelled outside through an external duct pipe. This is the recommended mode for maximum efficiency.
- Ductless Mode: If external ducting is not possible, a charcoal filter (sold separately) can be installed to recirculate filtered air back into the kitchen. Performance may vary in ductless mode.
