2.  Q: Can I use the extractor fan above my gas braai?  

A: 

NO. Please note that this unit was designed for the intended purpose of domestic kitchens only and cannot 

be used as a commercial extractor fan. Commercial usage includes but is not limited to: Restaurants, Coffee 
Shops, Soup Kitchens, Tuck shops, Food trailers, Gas 

braai’s inside or outside your property, any other form 

of braai and any kitchen that is used for commercial purposes. Using the extractor you purchased on any 
commercial application poses a serious fire risk and will result in immediate void of your warranty. Please 
contact our Falco offices for assistance with Gas Braai Extractors.  
 

3.  Q: What is the correct installation height?  

A: 

The recommended installation height is 700mm above gas and 650mm above electrical. On either 

application it is recommended that your installation height does not exceed 750mm to ensure the best results.  
 

Q: Do I require a recirculation kit? 
A: 

No. The extractor was designed to be used on both applications; External and Re-circulation air operation 

and no additional kit are required.  
 

4.  Q: What is the difference between External and Re-circulation air operation? 

A: Re- circulation; 

All wall mount units are supplied with aluminium and charcoal filters. For Re-circulation 

mode you will simply install the unit. The air will filtrate through both sets of filters, you’re outside aluminium 
filters 

and

 

you’re inside charcoal filters.

 

The air discharged from your extractor is then clean and grease free 

and cannot cause any damage. There are two options when using your extractor on Re-circulation. 1 

– Let the 

filtrated air escape through the vents on top of your top chimney or you can use the extendable ducting house 
to vent the air into your ceiling.

 

Activated charcoal

 in the charcoal filters removes odour and some smoke 

particles from the air before releasing the cleaned air back into the kitchen.

 

 

External: 

The only difference between Re-circulation mode and external mode is that on external mode you 

are venting the air to the outside of your property using a ducting hose. This means the clean filtrated air will 
not be discharged into your kitchen or ceiling but to the outside. The unit is supplied with an extendable 
ducting hose. When venting your air outwards the charcoal filters can be removed to improve the suction rate. 
Removing the charcoal filters on re-circulation mode is not recommended. 

Please note that the wall fitting that fits into your wall when venting your air outwards is not supplied 
with the extractor and can be purchased locally.
