ELICA HAIKU IS Island Range Hood 13" wide - 600CFM in Stainless Steel - EHI613SS 

Shapes, materials and solutions. At Elica, our strong belief in research means that even the choice of materials becomes an essential element in the innovation process. With 3D Aluminum grids with cast iron e ffect, the grids are kept attached to the casting by means of magnets mounted on the hood. Therefore, the locking system prevents any accidental fall. Available in different sizes and di fferent materials: full stainless steel, extra clear tempered glass with black screen printed and White Intense Krion.

What our Experts Think

• Ultra-compact island ventilation with bold design impact
  At just 13" wide, this is one of Elica’s most space-efficient island hoods, designed for minimalist kitchens that still require strong extraction power.
• Surprisingly powerful 600 CFM performance
  Despite its small footprint, it delivers up to 600 CFM airflow—capable of handling heavy cooking, frying, and multi-burner use in open kitchens.
• Seamless “floating” architectural aesthetic
  The monolithic stainless-steel body creates a clean, sculptural look that blends into modern island kitchen layouts without visual clutter.
• Advanced comfort-focused operation
  Engineered for low-noise performance (around 1.8 sones at working speed), keeping sound levels controlled even at higher airflow settings.
• Smart filtration + low maintenance design
  Includes long-life, dishwasher-safe multi-layer filters and magnet-mounted grille systems for easier cleaning and serviceability.
• Efficient LED lighting for worktop clarity
  Integrated LED strip lighting provides focused illumination directly on the cooking surface with low energy use and long lifespan.
• Best suited for premium compact kitchen islands
  Ideal when you want a designer island centerpiece but don’t have space for a large overhead hood—better for style-driven, space-conscious layouts than traditional wide island hoods.

Maintenance Tips

• Clean aluminum grease filters every 2–3 months – Dishwasher-safe long-life filters maintain strong suction and stable 600 CFM performance; wash with warm water + mild detergent if needed.
• Regenerate or replace odor filter (if installed) – Washable carbon/long-life filters can be cleaned and oven-dried to restore efficiency, extending lifespan up to ~3 years.
• Wipe stainless steel body weekly – Use a microfiber cloth and non-abrasive cleaner to prevent grease buildup and preserve the seamless finish.
• Clean LED strip light regularly – Remove oil film to maintain bright, even lighting and reduce heat stress on components.
• Check maintenance alarm alerts – Don’t ignore filter indicators; they signal reduced airflow efficiency or grease saturation.
• Inspect airflow path annually – Ensure ducting is clear and properly sealed to avoid noise increase or suction loss in this compact 13" design.
• Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasives – Protect stainless steel and internal coatings for long-term durability.
