Elica Introduces New Vent Hood Technology at KBIS with Stoney Island

Jan 4, 2018

New Range Hood Detects Cooktop Activity and Monitors Temperature and Moisture

FABRIANO, ITALY – Elica, the global leader in kitchen ventilation hoods, will unveil new vent hood technology at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Orlando, Florida, from Jan. 9 to 11 in booth W670. Elica’s new Stoney Island vent hood uses wireless sensor technology to constantly monitor cooking vapors and temperature, automatically adjusting to maintain optimal settings.
“When Stoney Island is paired with our new Elica Golden induction cooktop, it detects the temperature and moisture in the air, then adjusts the blower speed to achieve the best air quality,” said Francesco Casoli, Elica President and Chairman. “It’s just one example of how we use the most advanced technology in the industry coupled with Italian design to create elegant and innovative appliances.”

Stoney Island features a gently tapered stainless steel canopy that measures only 5-inches high, as well as a streamlined front rim, which fuses polished stainless steel and black glass to discreetly hide electronic touch controls until activated. Available in 36- and 42-inch widths, its design blends into any kitchen aesthetic.
As the authority on vent hoods, Elica will introduce Stoney Island during the exclusive KBIS DesignBites presentation on January 9 at 12:30 p.m. at the KBISNeXT™ Stage located in the south hall.
Elica will be displaying its full suite of hoods and cooktops at the show, including:

  • NikolaTesla: Part of the new Air Cooking series, NikolaTesla is Elica’s first aspirating induction cooktop, which combines the functions of two appliances—cooktop and hood—into one single product.
  • Varna Black: As the newest addition to Elica’s Techne series, Varna Black features a black stainless steel finish and combines inspirational, classic Italian designs with the latest functional technology to deliver convenience and high performance.
  • Leone: The new Leone range hood from Elica blends Italian style with the durability and performance of a professional style hood. As part of the Elica PRO series, Leone has the extra depth and power needed to support professional ranges and cooktops.

Elica will be displaying its full suite of hoods and cooktops at the show spanning six product series: Air Cooking, Techne PLUS, Techne, Elica PRO, Iconic and Comfort.

The new Stoney Island range hood uses wireless sensor technology to detect activity on the cooktop and constantly monitors temperature and moisture to operate automatically.

The clean lines, beautiful sloping angles and black stainless steel finish of Elica’s new Varna Black vent hood make a striking visual statement.
