Half geïntegreerde afzuigkap Akpo WK7LIGHTECO50IX

The Akpo WK7LIGHTECO50IX is a semi built-in cooker hood designed for integration into kitchen cabinetry while allowing partial visibility and easy access. It provides a maximum extraction power of 220 m³/h and supports both ducted and recirculating operation modes. The unit features a stainless steel finish and a practical scrollbar control for adjusting extraction settings. Filtration is provided by a carbon grease filter, and the hood includes a single 28 W light source delivering approximately 58 lx to the cooking surface. With an annual energy consumption of 83 kWh and a connected load of 128 W, this model balances extraction performance and energy efficiency.

Advantages

The Akpo WK7LIGHTECO50IX combines a compact semi built-in design with a stainless steel exterior that resists stains and is easy to clean. Its scrollbar control offers precise adjustment of extraction intensity without complex buttons. Dual operation modes (ducted and recirculating) add installation flexibility in different kitchen layouts. The carbon grease filter captures cooking vapours and odours when recirculating, and the included light improves visibility over the hob. The unit’s rated noise level and specified maximum extraction ensure predictable performance in everyday cooking.

Suitable for

• Small to medium kitchens where a semi built-in hood is preferable to a fully concealed model
• Kitchens without direct ventilation ducts using recirculating configuration with a carbon filter
• Homes where a stainless steel finish is desired for durability and easy maintenance
• Cooking spaces that require moderate extraction (up to 220 m³/h) and localized illumination

How to use

Install the Akpo WK7LIGHTECO50IX according to the manufacturer’s instructions for a semi built-in configuration, ensuring correct connection for ducted or recirculating operation as required. Use the scrollbar control to select the appropriate extraction intensity before and during cooking to capture steam and odours effectively. Replace or clean the carbon grease filter at intervals recommended by the manufacturer to maintain filtration efficiency. Switch on the integrated light to improve visibility of the hob while preparing food.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use ducted extraction where possible to remove air outside; if using recirculating mode, ensure the carbon filter is replaced regularly. Operate the hood at a higher extraction setting during heavy frying or when producing strong odours, and reduce the setting for simmering to minimize noise and energy use.
