Extractor Hoods with UV-C Technology

Professional kitchens are undergoing a true technological revolution, and at Luis Capdevila, we are proud to be at the forefront with our extractor hoods equipped with UV-C technology. This innovation not only improves air quality but also raises the bar for safety and hygiene in any commercial kitchen.

What makes UV-C technology special?

Ultraviolet type C radiation (UV-C) is known for its powerful disinfecting properties. In our extractor hoods, we harness this technology to create a revolutionary filtration system that goes far beyond simply removing smoke.

Main benefits of our UV-C system:

• Elimination of microorganisms: UV-C radiation neutralizes bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens present in the air, creating a more hygienic kitchen environment.
• Complete odor control: Thanks to the high density of UV-C lamps, we effectively eliminate even the most persistent odors, maintaining a fresh and pleasant atmosphere.
• Fire prevention: One of the most important features is its ability to prevent fire from spreading from the hood to the extraction system, adding an extra layer of safety.
• Maximum filtration efficiency: Our system ensures superior particle filtration compared to traditional systems.

Smart technology with triple safety

What truly sets our hoods apart is their triple safety system:

• Automatic filter detection: The system constantly checks that all filters are properly installed. If one is missing, the UV-C filtration is automatically deactivated.
• Airflow monitoring: It monitors the fan’s operation in real time. Without adequate airflow, UV-C activation is disabled.
• Dual safety relay: A redundant system that prevents any failure during power on/off, ensuring safe and reliable operation.

User-centered design

• Smart touchscreen
  Each hood includes a programmable touchscreen that displays the system’s status in real time and automatically schedules required maintenance. No more surprises: you’ll always know when it’s time for a check-up.
• SUPRA dynamic filtration
  The first filtration stage uses our exclusive embedded SUPRA filters, designed to last significantly longer than traditional baffle filters, reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
• Integrated air supply
  A unique feature is the integrated front-facing fresh air supply. This dual functionality not only provides clean air to the kitchen but also cools the UV-C controller electronics, extending their lifespan.

Robust and aesthetic construction

Our hoods feature full-weld construction, which not only enhances their appearance with clean, modern lines, but also offers superior strength and durability — essential qualities in the demanding environment of a professional kitchen.

The future of extraction is here

At Luis Capdevila, we understand that an efficient kitchen needs more than just smoke extraction. It needs a complete system that combines safety, hygiene, energy efficiency, and ease of maintenance.

Our UV-C technology hoods represent the natural evolution of extraction systems, offering a comprehensive solution for the most demanding kitchens of the 21st century.
