Three of the Most Efficient Cooker Hoods from Miele for 2015

As of 1 January 2015, the European Commission defined that cooker hoods have to feature energy labels including information on fan efficiency, lighting, grease filtering efficiency and noise level. This information will have to be displayed online, in brochures and in store; making it easy for customers to make comparisons when choosing a new cooker hood.

All Miele cooker hoods are hand assembled at its bespoke factory in Arnsberg, Germany with the team taking great pride in every product it makes. Designed to keep noise to a minimum, many of the new models feature energy efficient LED lighting and DC-motors, as well as exclusive Con@ctivity 2.0 technology for intelligent extraction, with the hood and hob ‘talking’ to each other to provide the ideal cooking environment. Miele cooker hoods also benefit from 10-layer metallic grease filters that are designed to be cleaned easily and can be put in the dishwasher.

Wall

Miele DA6690W Wall Décor Hood - £2,000

This striking wall décor cooker hood features top ratings for energy efficiency (‘A+’), grease filters (‘A’) and is quiet at just 51dB. Designed to perfectly match Miele’s Generation 6000 built in appliances, it is available in Stainless Steel, Brilliant White, Obsidian Black and Havana Brown. A highly energy efficient DC motor delivers extraction rates of 200-600m3/hr and is complemented by LED spotlights, which are extremely long lasting.  Benefiting from Miele’s Con@ctivity 2.0 technology, the cooker hood will switch on automatically when the accompanying induction hob is turned on with the power and lighting proactively adjusting.

Island

Miele DA420-6 V Hood, Island Décor Hood - £3,100

Thanks to a high-spec motorised canopy, this cooker hood can be adjusted at the touch of a button by up to 30cm, allowing it to be closer to the hob when cooking for optimised performance and raised when not in use.  This 90cm wide hood boasts exceptional ratings, including 'A+' for energy and ‘A’ for grease filters. Delivering extraction rates of 220-750 m3/hr, it features LED lighting that boasts a life expectancy of 20 years and the DC motor is up to 70% more energy efficient than standard motors. Con@ctivity 2.0 technology is also on board for seamless hob to hood communication.

Slimline

Miele DA3690 Flush Fit Hood with Motorised Canopy - £1,975

With an ‘A+’ rating for energy efficiency, this SlimLine/Telescopic 90cm cooker hood fits flush into kitchen cabinets for a seamless finish and offers an extraction rate of 200-640m3/hr with a quiet 51dB noise level.  The sleek motorised canopy can be activated via a remote control or if fitted with a compatible Con@ctivity 2.0 hob will emerge smoothly when the hob is turned on and disappear once the hob is switched off - adding the wow factor.  Other benefits include ‘C’ rated grease filters, intelligent energy efficient LED lighting and DC-motor.
