Simcohood Ductless Exhaust Hood System 620 mm W1500xD750xH1400mm DH1500-750

The SimcoHood DH1500-750 is a ductless exhaust hood — it filters and recirculates rather than venting outside, so it goes into a tenancy where you cannot put a duct through the roof. Read this first: it is made for ELECTRIC appliances only, up to 8 kW each, and will take three or four of them (including a three-phase unit) underneath. Suction is 400—500 litres per second from a 334 W motor drawing just 1.4 A. Filters, LED lighting, heavy-duty legs and castors are all included.

Why operators choose the DH1500-750-SM

• ELECTRIC appliances only, up to 8 kW each — this is the constraint that decides whether the hood suits you at all - a recirculating hood filters air back into the room, so it is not the answer for gas appliances
• No ducting to install — the reason to choose ductless: no roof or wall penetration, which is often the difference between a fit-out that is approved by the landlord and one that is not
• Takes three or four appliances, including a three-phase unit — enough coverage for a real benchtop cooking line rather than a single appliance
• 400-500 litres per second of suction from a 334 W motor — serious airflow on 1.4 A, so it runs from an ordinary power point rather than its own circuit
• Three-stage filtration included — three removable honeycomb filters at 380 x 455 mm, plus a polyester filter and a carbon filter - all supplied
• Filter replacement schedule is known up front — polyester every 8-12 weeks, carbon every 12 months - a real running cost, and better to see it now than discover it later
• 304 stainless steel — the grade that survives daily degreasing without pitting
• On heavy-duty legs with castors included — it stands on its own and rolls out for cleaning behind, rather than needing a fabricated frame

Specifications

Venue suitability

The DH1500-750 is for the site where ducting is not an option — a leased tenancy, a food court unit, a heritage building, a first-floor kitchen. Because it recirculates rather than exhausts, it is limited to electric appliances, so it suits an induction, griddle or electric-fryer line rather than anything gas-fired.

Installation & delivery

It runs from a standard 10 A power point, so no electrical work is required. Being ductless, there is no roof or wall penetration to make and no external fan to mount — that is the main reason operators choose it. It arrives on heavy-duty legs with castors, so it stands and rolls without a fabricated frame. Budget for the filter replacement cycle: polyester every 8 to 12 weeks and carbon every 12 months. Recirculating hoods are treated differently from ducted systems by some councils and landlords, so confirm your local requirement before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Can I put a gas appliance under the DH1500-750?

No. The product data specifies electric appliances only, up to 8 kW each. A ductless hood filters air and returns it to the room rather than exhausting it outside, so it is not the right product for gas-fired equipment. If your line is gas, you need a ducted canopy.

Q: How much can it cover?

Three or four appliances of up to 8 kW each, and it will take a three-phase unit underneath it.

Q: What are the ongoing filter costs?

There are three filter types. The honeycomb filters are removable and washable. The polyester filter is replaced every 8 to 12 weeks and the carbon filter every 12 months. All of them are supplied with the hood, but the replacements are a real running cost worth putting in your budget.

Q: Does it need its own electrical circuit?

No. The motor is 334 W drawing 1.4 A, so it runs from a standard 10 A power point.

Q: What is the advantage over a normal ducted canopy?

No ducting. There is no roof or wall penetration, no external fan and no duct run, which is often what makes a fit-out possible in a leased or multi-storey tenancy. The trade-off is that it only suits electric appliances and it has consumable filters.

Q: What warranty does the DH1500-750-SM come with?

Covered for 2 years on parts and labour. Terms vary by product — see our warranty information page for full details.
