Installation, Operation and Planning Notes

Installation and planning

Designed for easy and time-saving installation directly on the ceiling.
Install in a suspended ceiling with a suitable load-bearing substructure.
Do not fit the appliance directly onto plasterboard or similar lightweight construction materials.
Equivalent ducting length Lmax 23 m is recommended to ensure good performance.
For optimum extraction performance, keep the maximum distance between cooktop and ventilation appliance at 120 cm.
At 120 cm distance, maximum width of cooktops combination is 100 cm, or 130 cm when adding a frame or fume collector.
When the distance to the cooktop is larger than 120 cm, the unit acts as room ventilation since direct capture of vapours is limited.
Consider consulting an HVAC (Heating and ventilation air conditioning) specialist for planning.
Recommended minimum gap between appliance and external filter module is 100 cm.
For air recirculation, an external air recirculation module is required.

Clearances and safety

Minimum clearance above gas appliances is 65 cm.
If total gas load is more than 12 kW, minimum clearance is 70 cm.
Minimum clearance above electric appliances is 65 cm.
When installing in air extraction mode with a chimney-vented fireplace, the hood’s power supply line must feature a suitable safety switch.

Operation and functions

Automatic function with sensor-controlled power adjustment depending on cooking vapours.
Sensor-controlled run-on function supports continued ventilation after cooking.
Interval ventilation function operates for 6 minutes.
Remote control is supplied for convenient adjustment of power levels and functions.
Home Connect enables cooktop-based ventilation control with a suitable cooktop, as well as remote control, monitoring and diagnostics.
The availability of Home Connect functionality depends on the availability of Home Connect Services in the country.
The WiFi module can be switched off (refer to the user manual).

Filters and maintenance

Metal grease filter is dishwasher-safe for convenient cleaning.
Grease filter saturation indicator alerts when cleaning is required.
Activated charcoal filter saturation indicator assists in timely replacement for recirculation mode.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main ventilation modes available?

The unit supports air extraction and air recirculation. For air recirculation, an external air recirculation module is required. It offers three electronically controlled power levels and an intensive mode, with automatic, sensor-controlled power adjustment depending on cooking vapours.

How loud is the AC250121 during operation?

In air extraction mode at output level 3 and Intensive, the sound power levels are 56 / 70 dB(A) re 1 pW. In air recirculation mode at level 3 and Intensive, they are 63 / 72 dB(A) re 1 pW. In normal mode, the sound level ranges from a minimum of 41 dB to a maximum of 56 dB.

What is the recommended distance between the cooktop and the ceiling ventilation?

For optimum extraction performance, the maximum distance between the cooktop and the ventilation appliance is 120 cm. When the distance is greater than 120 cm, the unit functions primarily as room ventilation because direct capture of vapours is limited.

Which clearances are required for gas and electric appliances?

The minimum clearance above gas appliances is 65 cm, increasing to 70 cm if the total gas load exceeds 12 kW. The minimum clearance above electric appliances is 65 cm.

Does the AC250121 support smart control?

Yes. The AC250121 features an integrated WiFi module and supports selected Gaggenau Home Connect digital services, including cooktop-based ventilation control with a suitable cooktop, remote control and monitoring, and remote diagnostics. Availability depends on Home Connect Services in the country.

How do I maintain the filters?

The metal grease filter is dishwasher-safe. The appliance provides a grease filter saturation indicator and an activated charcoal filter saturation indicator to signal when cleaning or replacement is required.
