• Thermador Connected Experience by Home Connect™ – Wi-Fi enabled system allows remote monitoring and control of fan speed and lighting, plus grease‑filter cleaning notifications via the Home Connect app and compatibility with select smart home services.

• Home Connect® app control – start, stop, and adjust hood settings from your smartphone or tablet, receive maintenance alerts, and customize preferences for a more personalized ventilation experience.

• Hood Sync with Freedom® & Liberty® cooktops – enables two‑way communication so compatible Thermador induction cooktops can automatically switch on task lighting and ventilation when cooking begins, then adjust as needed.

• Powerfully Quiet® system – accepts integral, inline, or remote blowers (sold separately) so you can tailor installation for strong ventilation performance while minimizing noise in the kitchen.

• Thermador Professional Series design – coordinates with Thermador Pro ranges and rangetops, completing a cohesive, commercial‑inspired cooking suite.

• Professional 48" wall hood – large 47 15/16" wide canopy with 27" depth extends over front burners to better capture smoke, steam, and grease from high‑output ranges and rangetops.

• 4 fan speed settings – lets you select the ideal airflow level for simmering, sautéing, or high‑heat searing, balancing ventilation power with noise and energy use.

• Automatic Mode ventilation – adjusts fan speed based on cooking activity, increasing power during intense cooking and reducing it as conditions normalize for hands‑free operation.

• Delay Shut Off function – continues running the fan for about 10 minutes after cooking ends to clear lingering odors and steam, then turns the hood off automatically.

• Multi‑level LED lighting – vivid, energy‑efficient LEDs provide bright, even illumination of the cooking surface from first course to last.

• Adjustable LED brightness – multiple light levels (and fine‑tuning via app on some setups) let you choose anything from full task lighting to softer ambient light.

• Infrared heat lamps – built‑in heat lamps on each side of the hood keep cooked dishes warm until serving, ideal for multi‑course meals and entertaining.

• Independent left/right heat lamp control – allows you to warm food on one side while leaving the other side off, improving flexibility and energy efficiency.

• Sleek electronic touch control panel – smooth, illuminated touch controls are intuitive to use and easy to wipe clean, with no protruding knobs.

• Remote control capability (optional) – compatible with an accessory remote control panel so you can operate fan and lights from a more convenient location.

• Stainless‑steel commercial‑style baffle filters – heavy‑duty, dishwasher‑safe baffles efficiently capture grease and channel it into the grease tray, supporting frequent high‑heat cooking.

• Canopy grease collection system – interlocking baffles and an integrated grease tray help prevent grease from dripping onto your cooktop, cabinets, or food.

• Check filter reminder light – indicator illuminates after a set number of operating hours to remind you when it’s time to clean the grease filters, helping maintain performance.

• Dishwasher‑safe filters – stainless‑steel baffle filters can be removed and placed directly in the dishwasher for quick, thorough cleaning.

• 4‑stage fan control – fine‑grained speed selection helps you match ventilation precisely to cooking intensity, reducing unnecessary noise and energy use.

• 27" deep capture area – extra‑deep hood design improves capture of rising smoke and steam from front burners and large cookware.

• Flexible blower options – supports integral, inline, and remote blower units in multiple CFM ratings (sold separately) so you can meet local code and performance needs.

• Top or rear 10" round ducting – offers vertical or horizontal duct discharge options with a 10" round duct, simplifying planning in new builds or remodels.

• Ducted ventilation configuration – vents air to the outside to remove heat, moisture, odors, and airborne grease from the kitchen environment.

• Built‑in installation style – designed for professional wall‑mount installation, often paired with optional duct covers for a finished, integrated look.

• Optional duct cover accessories – compatible with 6" and telescopic 20"–54" tall duct covers (sold separately) to conceal ductwork and match ceiling heights.

• Home Connect tips and notifications – app can provide usage tips, filter‑clean reminders, and status notifications to help you get the most from the hood.

• 0–100% light slider via app (where supported) – allows very precise dimming of hood lighting from your mobile device for customized ambiance.

• 18" overall hood height – substantial vertical profile delivers a professional look while fitting under many standard ceiling heights.

• Recommended 30" mounting height – designed to be installed about 30" above the cooking surface for optimal capture efficiency and safety.

• Stainless steel construction – durable, corrosion‑resistant stainless finish resists discoloration from heat and is easy to clean.

• 120V, 60 Hz operation – standard North American electrical requirements simplify installation in most kitchens.

• 10" round damper included – built‑in backdraft damper helps prevent outside air from entering the home when the hood is not in use.
