Monolith: key features
Monolith transforms the concept of extraction in the kitchen into a multifunctional solution, configured as an equipped duct, consisting of a 90 cm hood module that can be combined with additional 30, 60 and 90 cm storage modules. The latter fit natural beech wood accessories such as kitchen utensils, chopping boards and spice racks, electrical and USB sockets.
The hood unit and the storage modules are made of aluminum with an elegant matte black finish with a frosted glass front on both the front and back. Moreover, the entire system is equipped with ambient light, creating a pleasant glowing line along the base.
Suitable for both induction and gas hobs, Monolith provides easy installation and relies on a powerful and silent 800 m3/h brushless motor (energy class A ++) controlled via an ergonomic touch control panel.
