Broan

BU230BL

• Broan® BU2 Series design – part of Broan’s BU2 economy series, offering reliable, budget‑friendly under‑cabinet ventilation for everyday cooking.
• HVI Certified performance – independently tested to meet HVI standards so stated airflow and sound levels are verified for real‑world kitchen use.

• Four‑way convertible ventilation – installs as horizontal, vertical, 6" round (with transition) or non‑ducted to suit a wide variety of kitchen layouts and existing ductwork.
• Convertible ducted / non‑ducted operation – can be vented outdoors or used in recirculating mode when exterior ducting is not practical.
• 160–210 Max CFM airflow (model‑dependent) – provides effective capture of smoke, steam and cooking odours for standard residential ranges.
• Standard 30" under‑cabinet width – fits most 30‑inch cooktops and ranges, ideal for typical North American kitchen cabinetry.
• Low‑profile 6" height – slim design maximizes headroom over the cooktop and fits under shallow cabinets.
• Black finish – neutral black colour coordinates with a wide range of black and stainless kitchen appliances.

• 2‑speed rocker control – simple, durable rocker switch lets you quickly choose between low and high fan speeds.
• Dedicated light rocker switch – separate rocker control for the light allows you to use the hood lighting independently of the fan.
• Standard 2‑speed blower – offers a quiet low setting for everyday simmering and a higher setting for frying or boiling.

• Designed for 75 W max bulb – accepts up to a 75‑watt (incandescent or LED equivalent) bulb for bright cooktop illumination (bulb not included).
• 1‑level direct lighting – single lighting level provides focused light directly over the cooking surface for better visibility.

• Aluminum mesh grease filter – standard‑efficiency aluminum filter captures grease particles to help keep cabinets and kitchen surfaces cleaner.
• Easy‑clean removable filter – filter can be removed quickly for hand‑washing, simplifying routine maintenance.
• Optional charcoal filter (41F) for recirculation – accepts an add‑on charcoal filter to help reduce odours when installed in non‑ducted mode.

• Convertible 3¼" x 10" rectangular ducting – supports both vertical and horizontal rectangular duct connections for flexible installation.
• Optional 6" round duct transition (model 411) – accessory transition piece allows connection to common 6‑inch round ducting.
• Optional 7" round damper (BP87Q) – compatible accessory damper helps prevent backdrafts when using 7‑inch round duct.
• Optional 7" round adapter plate (SR680508) – adapter plate simplifies connection to certain round duct configurations.

• Contemporary styling – clean, simple lines complement both traditional and modern kitchen designs.
• Available in multiple widths – BU2 series is offered in 24" and 30" widths, making it easier to match different cabinet sizes (this model is 30").

• Standard 120 V, 60 Hz connection – plugs into typical North American household electrical systems (hardwire or cord kit, depending on installation).
• Approx. 2.5 A current draw – modest electrical load that works with standard kitchen circuits.

• Noise level around 6.5 sones on high – delivers strong ventilation with sound levels typical for economy under‑cabinet hoods.
• Minimum 18" clearance above cooktop – designed to install within common 18"–24" height ranges above the cooking surface.

• Under‑cabinet installation – mounts directly to the underside of wall cabinets, saving space and keeping sightlines open.
• Standard 17.5" depth – sized to align with most 12"–13" deep upper cabinets while providing good coverage over the front burners.

• Durable steel construction – metal body provides long‑lasting strength and resists warping or discoloration from cooking heat.
• Hemmed edges and smooth surfaces – finished edges and smooth undersides improve safety and make wiping down the hood easier.

• Non‑ducted recirculation capable – when used with charcoal filters, recirculates filtered air back into the kitchen where exterior venting is not available.
• Helps reduce smoke and odours – draws cooking by‑products away from the cooktop to improve indoor air quality and comfort.
