What type, size, suction power of kitchen chimney to buy | With Duct vs Ductless kitchen chimney

[@nareshkumarsekar5970]

Hello, I just started watching your videos to buy things for my new house, I must say your content is damm good, the way you articulate things in chronological order is good for any first time buyers . Can’t imagine how much research and prep goes into making this video. Keep going and wish you for more subscribes.

The video was really helpful.. One can easily make choices after watching your videos.. Just one doubt.. whether the chimney you have bought is auto clean or not.. it was not mentioned on website link provided..

Hi Sridhar, it is auto clean filterless

I am getting 6-8 bends in kitchen chimney duct- due to constraints of floor plan and society restrictions. It has poor ventillation and because of intensive cooking have to go for ducted chimney.... :(

[@konkara1234]

Thank you for the video,Ma’am. I am planning to get a chimney for my kitchen, The duct length would be close to 10 feet, Is a suction power of greater than 1200 required in this case ? We cook more of non vegetarian food.Also, Can you let us know your feedback for the Elica chimney that you have been using ? Thank You

Wall mount chimney 11. 90 cms 12. Maximum warranty

[@spacifii782]

hi saumya elica has introduced a new series of chimney ismart series .they claim less noise .however the suction is mentioned in RPM OF MOTOR.(2400 rpm mentioned) HOW DOES IT COMPARE WITH THE 1200 /1000/1400 OF THE REGULAR CHIMNEYS .

[@TheGrapevineIndia]

Hi Spacifii! Hmm. RPM and m3/hr are two different metrics and are not comparable. If you are referring to this amzn.to/3S9BoDK type of model from Elica, the inverter motor helps to keep the noise level lower. If you have longer ducting needs, this may be a better option because most others between 1200-1500m3/hr suction power recommend a max ducting of about 8-10ft.

[@anu7572]

Please do the video on baffled vs filterless chimney... That would be very helpful

[@dineshkumars.v.4837]

Nice and well explained and well presented too. Can you recommend a 60 cm ductless chimney?

[@TheGrapevineIndia]

Hi Dinesh, unfortunately, these days not many options of ductless. Can consider one of these amzn.to/38eXTpk or amzn.to/3NwBB1f. The first one does have better suction than the latter.

[@jeniferd5808]

As u said ductless chimneys dont have filterless option but do ductless chimmey have autoclean feature?😊

[@TheGrapevineIndia]

There are so few ductless chimneys, hard to say. But if you are converting a ducted to ductless with a carbon filter, the same specs of auto clean will work. Carbon filters will need changing though.

[@abraarahmed4195]

good expenation small correction it's not inches it's centimetres

[@TheGrapevineIndia]

Yeah 🤦‍♀️

[@MsRifna]

Yay!! It's here!!🤘 Saumya one more question - what is the ideal height/distance from the hob to install the chimney?

[@TheGrapevineIndia]

Hi @MsRifna :D Glad it was useful. The ideal height is between 26-30 inches. It may also be available in your chimney manual.

[@PR-ww8ox]

The elica model given is not having Auto clean option I feel also the glass doesn’t open up it’s only that small open suction which will help the purpose … there is a better model in elica which has Auto clean option too

I cannot install ducted chimney and I can’t clearly find which chimney can be ductless. Do you have any information from your research on list of chimneys that can be ductless? Size: 60cm!! Would really appreciate help!!

[@TheGrapevineIndia]

Hi, many can be converted to ductless if the carbon filter is available. But most times they don’t keep stock of it. Eg like this one amzn.to/447D3zg

[@imfaith99]

I have a doubt. In a filterless chimney, at least any part of the suction mechanism, say blower comes in direct contact with the kitchen oil and goop. So what if the blower fins are clogged. Wont it reduce the performance? Plus the blower fans are not placed in a way which can be easily cleaned. Thats what made me buy one with a baffle instead pf filterless

[@TheGrapevineIndia]

Hi Misham, thanks for sharing. In theory, these are also auto clean - so in the auto clean process it heats up the inside near the motor and all the oil residue is melted and collected in the oil collector. It is required only to clean the outer cover on a regular basis and service the insides about once a year.

[@imfaith99]

@@TheGrapevineIndia ok thanks. Do you have any idea about the vguard ones? Are they reliable enough?

Chimneys help exhaust odour. Great feature ! So if I were your neighbour, would I get to know what you were having for lunch or dinner before your family members in the other room? 🤔😂

my kitchen is a parallel one of size around 7feet ×18 feet duct size will be around 12 feet. will 60cm sunflame chimney of 1250/cub metre suction power will be sufficient.in addition kitchen is otherwise airy with a 4feet window.

[@TheGrapevineIndia]

Hi Sameer, 12 feet is the max you can go with the duct pipe length. 1250 Should be sufficient

thanks a lot for the response.only a few you tubers respond so quickly ❤️

[@anuradhabhagi]

Very well explained. Obviously the typo is a apparent and needs to be overlooked 😀..you also already mentioned in your comments. Just one question..if the hob is 60, will it be recommended to go in for 90 cm if fried food or more oil, like in parathas, is generally prepared twice or thrice a month?

[@TheGrapevineIndia]

Hi Anu, haha, imagine it being 60 inches 😂 you can go for a higher one, but it’s not required. You can look for one with a higher suction power for higher cooking of fried items. Even 90cm ones have a 1000 to 1500 cubic meter per hr suction power, so nothing greater than the 60cm one.

@@TheGrapevineIndia thank you for the response!

Hi Saumya. I understand the suction capacity. what about the suction area size of the chimney? i need to buy a 90cm chimney. In some models I see that the suction area is same as that in a 60cm chimney. In some models the suction area is almost 90cm. Can I go for a 90cm one with high suction power even if the suction area is small? Can you please suggest?

Hi Swati, if you are using a 90 cm hob, then go for a 90 cm chimney with a suction area of 90 cm.

@@TheGrapevineIndia Thank you Saumya.

[@VigneshR-dq4md]

I have the same doubt. Should I choose a chimney with high suction power like 1400m cube, or a chimney with high suction area with 1200m cube. By suction area I don't mean the size of chimney (60 or 90cm), what I'm referring to is the size of the suction plate under the chimney which is usually 40 - 50 cm
