ELICA ERS630S1 RISE Downdraft Range Hood 30" wide - 600CFM in Stainless Steel - ERS630S1
When the view out your kitchen window is too spectacular to disrupt with a range hood, Elica s Rise is the perfect solution. Rise recesses completely out of sight into the countertop when not in use, but when it s time to cook, it elevates a full 14 above the countertop-almost twice the height of competitors-for added ventilating efficiency. Additionally, Elica's Perimeter Aspiration Technology increases suction by 35%, effectively drawing air from the front burner to create the best functioning downdraft on the market. Rise comes equipped with a powerful 600 CFM internal blower, operated by an electronic rotating control mounted into the countertop or cabinet face. For maximum flexibility, the blower can be rotated to the opposite side to make room for a floor-mounted range.

Maintenance Tips
-
Turn off power before cleaning. Always disconnect the unit from its electrical supply before servicing or cleaning to ensure safety.
-
Clean grease filters monthly. Remove the metal mesh (or anodized aluminium) grease filters, soak in hot soapy water, rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely before reinstalling.
-
Wipe stainless steel surfaces gently. Use a soft cloth and neutral (pH-7) detergent; avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or steel wool which can scratch or damage the stainless finish.
-
Ensure proper ventilation and duct path. Check that the downdraft vent is installed correctly, the duct is clear and rigid metal where required, and that the outlet is unobstructed for optimal airflow and performance.
-
Use hood appropriately during cooking. Turn the vent on before cooking begins and continue running it a few minutes after you finish to remove residual vapours and ensure full extraction.
-
Check retractable mechanism (if applicable). If the unit features a rise-up downdraft system, ensure the moving parts are unobstructed and level; clear any debris that might interfere with extension or retraction.
-
Inspect periodically for wear or damage. Check the gasket seals (if any), filter condition, hood alignment, and motor function. If you detect unusual noise, reduced airflow, or poor extraction, arrange a professional inspection.
