               Electric Chimney
3
"Electric chimney is meant to..."
  • Electric chimney is meant to absorb moisture, oil /carbon particle, fumes and heat generated while cooking.


  • It shall be placed near to source, approximately 30 to 34 inches above the gas stove.


4
Types of chimney

  • Traditional Chimney


  • Decorative chimney



5
Efficiency of chimney
  • In a normal room, efficiency of chimney
  • supposes to be approx.  85 % to 90%. The
  • loss of 10% to 15% occurs due to normal air
  • circulation in room. Therefore it is always
  • advisable to close windows inside the kitchen
  • room while cooking. As there are losses in
  • suction, one can make provision of additional
  • exhaust fan or ceiling fan or of both.
6
Window Factor
  • It is advisable to not to have window above cooking
  • area. Window at left is advisable. In India we found
  • many kitchens with window above cooking area as
  • factor of Vaastu-Shastra and Feng-shui also plays
  •  role while designing of room. Chimney can be
  • Placed with the help of fabricated brackets even
  • though window appears above cooking area. The
  • fabricated brackets are made in such fashion that it
  • won’t disturbs the outlook of the kitchen.


7
Chimney or Exhaust Fan

  • Normally we put exhaust fan at the corner of room
  • or window that is away from source or gas stove
  • As compared to electric chimney. Therefore
  • Efficiency of suction of exhaust fan is
  • approximately 30% to 35%.


8
Chimney or Exhaust Fan
  • Often we found grease around the fan area, tired
  • some to clean. Electric chimney is placed near
  • the source, contains 2 kind of filtration system,
  • efficiency is @ 85%, have 3 levels of speed for
  • variety of cooking procedures and easy to
  • maintain. Therefore electric chimney is always
  • advisable
9
Chimney Functions- speeds and light
  • Speed 1: for suction of moist fumes developed while
  • making ‘roti’, vegetables, or by pressure cooker.
  • Speed 2: for suction of oil and moist fumes
  • developed while making curry or gravy.
  • Speed 3: for suction of oil fumes & carbon particles
  • developed during deep-frying or roasting etc.


  • Overhead Lights: you can see clearly your menu
  • while cooking.
10
Mode of operations-

  • Recycling mode


  • Ducting mode
11
Recycling mode:
  • In this mode of operation fumes sucked from
  • source passes through the metal and
  • charcoal filter, oil and carbon particles are
  • filtered and the dry air after filtration is
  • allowed pass inside the room again.
12
Ducting Mode:
  • In this mode of operation fumes sucked from
  • source passes through metal filter and
  • thrown out of room in the duct of the
  • apartment through PVC pipeline.


  • One needs to puncture the wall to take the
  • pipeline out. Charcoal filters are not required
  • hence lowers maintenance cost.
13
Types of filter:


  • 1.Metal Filter


  • 2. Charcoal Filter
14
Metal Filter
  • Its function is to collect oil particles.
  • Available in three types


  • 1.Aluminium mesh
  • 2. Oil Collector (kutchine)
  • 3. Baffle Filter (Faber)
15
Selection of chimney:
  • Mode of operation
    Dimension of Gas stove
    Finish: 1 Powder coated 2 St. steel 3 Glass.
    Suction Capacity:  400 m3 / hour (minimum)
  • Types of Filters
    Noise-62 dba
  • Warranty Period.
    Sizes of chimney: 60 cm, 90 cm
16
Maintenance of chimney:
  • Cleaning of metal filter: mesh filters – Every 4 to 6 days, 2 Oil collector: Every 2 to 3 months, 3 Baffle Filter: Every 3 to 4 months
  • Replacement of charcoal filter: Every 4 to 6 months
  • Electrical items: Break down maintenance.    Motor: Break down maintenance
