Ideal for sleek, minimalist kitchens, Whirlpool has developed a ventilated induction hob as part of its premium W Collection range of built-in cooking appliances.

The stylish black glass ventilated induction hob (WVH 92 K F KIT) benefits from four induction zones with nine different power levels to choose from, in addition to a boost function and Keep Warm setting, which inevitably prevents food from cooling. What’s more, the integrated ventilation system eliminates the need for a cooker hood in the kitchen, which is perfect for installing the hob within a central kitchen island.

The integrated extraction system boasts AutoVent Speed technology, which automatically activates the ventilation for a fuss free cooking experience. The intuitive technology adapts the extraction power required based on the air quality of the cooking environment, optimising the energy consumption and quietness at the same time. The Whirlpool W Collection ventilated induction hob is suitable for either ducting or recirculation and benefits from a ceramic filter that guarantees optimal odour absorption and exceptional durability of the extraction system for up to five years^*.

The flush integration of the built-in ventilation with the glass of the hob, allows for fluid, sliding movements of the pots and pans across the hob’s surface when cooking. Furthermore, the unique Teflon coated aluminium ventilation grid is scratchproof, non-stick and therefore easy-to-clean.

Charmaine Warner, Brand Manager, Whirlpool, says: “Our W Collection ventilated induction hob offers consumers superb design options, including integrating the extraction system into their worktop, streamlining the kitchen while protecting the fabric and furniture of the home. Induction technology is a faster and essentially a more resource-efficient way to cook on a hob, and by incorporating the extraction system, it allows users to benefit from the latest advancements in technology, without compromising on the overall look of their kitchen.”
