Product Information

Full details

The Elica Under Plinth Recirculating Kit (KIT0167756) is designed for homeowners who wish to install their Elica venting hob in filtering mode rather than traditional duct-out mode. This kit provides a complete solution for channeling filtered air into the cabinet base, ensuring a sleek, finished appearance with the included chrome-plated trim. While it offers versatile installation options for kitchens without external ducting, users should note that it requires specific baseboard modifications to accommodate the air deflector and trim profile.

FAQs

Is this kit compatible with non-Elica hobs?

No, this kit is specifically designed for Elica venting hobs and may not fit other brands.

Can I use this without the chrome trim?

While technically possible, the trim is designed to protect the cut edge of the baseboard and provide a finished look; omitting it may leave a rough opening.

How often should I replace the ceramic filters?

Refer to the user manual provided with your Elica hob, as filter life depends on cooking frequency and food types.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need standard carpentry tools for cutting the baseboard, such as a jigsaw or handsaw, and a screwdriver for assembly.

Does the kit come with enough pipe for all installations?

The kit includes a 500mm pipe segment. If your layout requires a longer reach, you may need additional compatible Elica ducting components.

Troubleshooting

Airflow feels restricted at the baseboard

Check that the ducting pipe is not crushed or kinked during installation and that the baseboard vent is not obstructed by furniture or rugs.

Odors remain in the kitchen after cooking

Verify the ceramic filters are seated correctly in their housing and have not reached the end of their service life.

Loose connections causing noise or vibration

Re-apply the included adhesive tape or check if additional support brackets are needed for the longer segments of the rectangular pipe.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enables flexible kitchen design by removing the need for external ducting
  • High-quality ceramic filters provide effective odor removal
  • Chrome-plated trim ensures a professional and tidy cabinet finish
  • Comprehensive kit includes all essential ducting pieces and installation accessories

Cons

  • Requires modification of the cabinet baseboard
  • Only compatible with specific Elica venting hobs

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, ensure your Elica venting hob model is compatible with the KIT0167756. Begin by planning the route of the rectangular piping from the hob outlet to the baseboard. Use the provided adhesive tape to ensure all connections are airtight to prevent air leaks inside the cabinet. The baseboard must be cut accurately to accommodate the deflector and the chrome-plated trim. For maintenance, check the ceramic filters periodically according to your hob's manual instructions to ensure optimal odor filtration. Keep the area around the baseboard vent clear of debris to allow for unobstructed airflow.
