Cooking is a great pleasure, but the fumes, grease and odors are always very unpleasant.
The most commonly used solutions in the kitchen are the extractor hood with an outlet to the outside or the extractor hood with recirculation operation. In cases where the extractor hood is used to the outside, in addition to the odours, the extractor hood extracts hot air from the kitchen during the winter and cool air during the summer, thus increasing heating and air conditioning costs. Recirculation extractors with activated carbon filters also have limited efficiency in eliminating odours, and maintenance costs are high because the activated carbon filters have to be replaced frequently.
At Frasa we are constantly looking for a technological solution that allows us to work in an odour-free environment and that is a pioneer in air filtration. In this constant search for innovation in the market, natural AIR emerges as an advanced solution to eliminate the traditional problems of odours and impurities in the kitchen.
What is natural AIR?
Natural AIR is an advanced air purification technology that uses an ionized gas composed of a mixture of electrons and ions. Unlike traditional filtration methods such as activated carbon, Natural AIR creates a “cold combustion” that breaks down germ, odor and allergen molecules at the molecular level, resulting in oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapor.
The basic principle is simple: sufficient heat energy is supplied to air molecules, dissociating them and ionizing atoms and molecules. This process makes the air cleaner and free of unwanted impurities such as bacteria, viruses and allergens.
How does natural AIR work?
In hoods that use natural AIR, the kitchen air first passes through a grease filter, where larger particles are trapped. The filtered air then enters the natural AIR filter, where the pollutants are oxidized. The result is clean, odor-free air with an elimination efficiency of up to 95%. This process not only removes odors, but also eliminates germs and allergens, providing a healthier environment.
One of the great advantages of this technology is that the system does not require maintenance or filter replacement for 10 years, unlike activated carbon filters, which need to be changed every 3 or 4 months.
Discover the 7 advantages of recirculation exhaust using natural AIR technology :
- Aesthetic Design - Eliminating the need for external chimneys provides a cleaner, more modern look to kitchens.
- Savings on installation costs – Extractor hoods with AIR natural recirculation technology do not require construction work or additional costs for the installation of outlet ducts.
- Energy cost savings - By avoiding the release of hot air in winter and cool air in summer, heating and cooling costs are reduced, offering significant savings throughout the year.
- 95% odor elimination efficiency - While activated carbon filters only remove between 50 and 60% of odors, plasma filters reach 95%, providing much purer air.
- Eliminates 99.9% of viruses and bacteria - In addition to eliminating odors, AIR natural plasma technology is extremely effective against viruses, germs and allergens, something that traditional filters cannot do.
- 10-year durability - Natural AIR has a durability of up to 10 years, without the need for replacement or maintenance, which reduces costs and inconvenience for the customer.
- Constant - Unlike carbon filters, whose efficiency degrades after sessions of use, plasma technology maintains its 95% efficiency for many years (10-year guarantee).
