Understanding downdraft ventilation<\/span><\/h2>\n

Downdraft ventilation is a technology used in cooktops and ranges to capture and remove cooking byproducts, such as smoke, odors, and grease, by drawing them downward and either venting them outside or filtering and recirculating the air.<\/span><\/p>\n

Downdraft systems use fans and ductwork to create a suction effect that pulls cooking byproducts down through the cooktop or range and into a venting system. The byproducts are then either expelled outdoors or filtered before recirculating into the kitchen.<\/span><\/p>\n
