DUCTLESS RECIRCULATING (AK8000AS ONLY):
Ductless recirculating is intended for applications where an exhaust duct work is not possible to be installed.
When converted, the power pack functions in air “purifying” mode rather than exhausting the air. Fumes and
exhaust from cooking is drawn and fi ltered by a charcoal fi lter. The air is then purifi ed and recirculated back
into the kitchen.
We recommend to always exhaust air outside of the home by employing existing or installing new duct work,
if possible. The power pack is most effective and effi cient as an exhaust unit. Only when the exhaust option
is not possible should you use the power pack in recirculating mode.
When converted to recirculating mode, a charcoal fi lter is required to be installed on top of the standard metal
mesh fi lter and a return air vent is needed to direct air back into the kitchen. The standard metal mesh fi lter is
intended to capture residue from cooking and the optional charcoal fi lter helps to purify fumes exhausted from
cooking in recirculating mode.
