Campana extractora integrable CATA GC DUAL BK — 492 mm de ancho, 1200 m³/h, filtro metálico, 50 dB

The CATA GC DUAL BK is a built-under extractor hood designed for kitchens where space efficiency and strong ventilation are required. With a compact 492 mm width and a maximum extraction power of 1200 m³/h, this model supports both ducted and recirculating installation with top exhaust. The hood is finished in black and includes a metal grease filter, two 50 W lights and a connected load of 280 W. Operating noise is specified at 50 dB, and the unit is rated energy class A.

Advantages

The CATA GC DUAL BK combines high extraction capacity with a narrow 492 mm footprint, making it suitable for smaller installations without compromising airflow. Its dual-mode operation (ducted or recirculating) provides installation flexibility for different kitchen layouts. The metal grease filter offers durable grease capture and is washable for repeated use. The black finish and integrated lighting provide practical illumination and a discreet aesthetic, while the 50 dB noise level ensures relatively quiet operation for everyday cooking.

Suitable for

• Small to medium domestic kitchens with limited cabinet width
• Installations requiring top exhaust or recirculation due to ducting constraints
• Users who need high extraction rate for intensive cooking
• Kitchens where a compact, black-finished built-under hood is preferred

How to use

Install the built-under extractor hood beneath a kitchen cabinet or shelf following the manufacturer's installation instructions and ensuring appropriate clearance above the cooking surface. Choose ducted or recirculating configuration based on available ventilation; for ducted operation, connect the top exhaust to external ducting, and for recirculation fit the required charcoal filter if applicable. Use the control panel to select the required extraction speed; use the higher setting for strong smoke or odors and lower settings for routine ventilation to reduce noise and power consumption. Replace or clean the metal grease filter regularly and ensure the lamps are replaced with compatible 50 W bulbs if required.

Recommendations

For sustained performance, clean the metal grease filter at regular intervals depending on cooking frequency—typically every 1–2 months for moderate use. When operating in recirculating mode, install and replace carbon filters as recommended to maintain odor removal efficiency. Use lower fan settings for simmering and everyday cooking to save energy and reduce noise; reserve the maximum extraction power for frying or heavy cooking that produces significant steam or smoke.
