Thermador

HMDW36WS

• Masterpiece® design – premium Thermador Masterpiece® styling coordinates with other Masterpiece® cooking appliances for a cohesive, luxury kitchen look.

• Noise Control Technology™ – utilizes special insulation to reduce operating noise by up to 35% compared with hoods without this technology, helping keep conversations comfortable while cooking.

• Home Connect® Wi‑Fi Enabled – allows remote monitoring and control of fan speed and lighting, plus grease‑filter cleaning notifications, directly from the Home Connect® app on your smartphone or tablet.

• Thermador Connected Experience – integrates the hood into a connected Thermador kitchen suite so you can manage multiple appliances, customize settings, and receive tips and notifications through one network.

• Hood Sync with Freedom® & Liberty® cooktops – enables compatible Thermador Freedom® and Liberty® induction cooktops to communicate with the hood, automatically turning on task lighting and ventilation when the cooktop is in use.

• Masterpiece® Drawer hood concept – slide‑out “drawer” style canopy blends luxury and performance, tucking away when not in use for a clean, built‑in appearance.

• Sliding canopy for flush design – canopy can be pulled forward for increased smoke and steam capture, or pushed back to sit nearly flush with cabinetry, preserving a continuous sight line.

• 600 CFM blower performance – powerful internal blower is sized to pair effectively with Thermador Masterpiece® cooktops, helping quickly clear smoke, steam, and odors from the cooking area.

• 4 fan speeds – four selectable fan levels let you match airflow to light simmering, everyday cooking, or high‑heat searing for efficient, customized ventilation.

• Automatic Mode – built‑in sensor detects cooking temperatures and automatically adjusts fan speed, providing hands‑free ventilation control as cooking intensity changes.

• Delay Shut Off function – keeps the fan running for about 10 minutes after cooking ends, then automatically turns off to remove lingering odors without needing to return to the controls.

• Check filter reminder light – indicator illuminates after a set number of operating hours to remind you when the dishwasher‑safe grease filters need cleaning, helping maintain peak performance.

• LED Lighting – multi‑level, bright white LED lights provide even illumination over the cooktop from first course to last while using less energy and generating less heat than traditional bulbs.

• 0–100% light slider via app – light level can be finely adjusted from the Home Connect® app, allowing you to set the perfect task or ambient lighting intensity.

• Sleek electronic touch control panel – smooth, glass‑like touch controls are intuitive to use, easy to wipe clean, and maintain the hood’s minimalist, built‑in aesthetic.

• Built‑in remote control panel option – compatible with an optional remote control panel (sold separately) that can be installed in a more convenient location, useful for taller installations or accessibility needs.

• Grease‑capturing hybrid mesh filters – high‑efficiency hybrid mesh filters framed in stainless steel help trap grease and particulates effectively to protect the blower and ductwork.

• Dishwasher‑safe filters – removable filters can be placed directly in the dishwasher for quick, thorough cleaning, reducing maintenance time and effort.

• Convertible ducting / recirculation capable – can be installed for ducted ventilation or converted to recirculating operation with an additional kit, offering flexibility where exterior venting is difficult.

• Vertical duct discharge – designed for standard vertical (upward) ducting with an 8" round duct connection, simplifying integration with common residential venting layouts.

• Integrated motor in hood – internal blower motor is housed within the hood body, simplifying installation and eliminating the need for a separate external blower in most applications.

• Under‑cabinet built‑in installation – fits into a 36" under‑cabinet or custom enclosure opening, creating a seamless, custom‑insert look in both contemporary and traditional kitchens.

• Stainless steel construction – durable stainless steel body and filter frames resist corrosion, are easy to clean, and complement a wide range of appliance finishes.

• Slim, low‑profile form factor – shallow depth and compact height help the hood integrate into tight spaces or minimalist cabinet designs without sacrificing performance.

• Illuminated controls – backlit control indicators make it easy to see fan and light settings at a glance, even in low‑light conditions.

• Energy‑efficient operation – LED lighting and electronically controlled blower help reduce energy consumption compared with older, halogen‑lit or less efficient hoods.

• Safety‑focused ventilation – effective removal of smoke, steam, and airborne grease supports better indoor air quality and helps reduce buildup on surrounding cabinets and surfaces.
