* A "1" here indicates a 300 CFM, single blower (450 equivalent CFM).
* A "2" here indicates a 300/600 CFM, dual blower (900 equivalent CFM).
* A "3" here indicates one 300 CFM single blower and one 300/600 CFM dual blower (900 CFM total = 1350 equivalent CFM).
* A "4" here indicates two 300/600 CFM dual blowers (1200 CFM total = 1800 equivalent CFM).
What does Equivalent CFM mean?
CFM ratings, for hoods using mesh or baffle filters, are overstated by approximately 1/3 because they are tested without the filters in place. A mesh or baffle filtered hood, rated at 450 CFM, actually delivers only about 300 CFM of airflow after the filters are placed in the air stream.
Because it uses a centrifugal filtration system with nothing to obstruct the airflow, the Vent-A-Hood Magic Lung® blower is much more efficient, delivering airflow equivalent to a "filtered" hood - but with a lower CFM rating. When comparing the Magic Lung® to blower units made by other manufacturers, use the "Equivalent CFM".
** In addition to stainless steel, Vent-A-Hood is also available in standard painted finishes, dozens of custom paint colors as well as real brass (smooth) and real copper (smooth or hammered finish).
