Finished in \u003cstrong\u003ematt black\u003c\/strong\u003e, it rises from your worktop to a full \u003cstrong\u003e500mm height\u003c\/strong\u003e, houses \u003cstrong\u003etwo independent brushless motors\u003c\/strong\u003e delivering a combined \u003cstrong\u003e1380 m³\/hr extraction rate\u003c\/strong\u003e, and sits just \u003cstrong\u003e90mm deep\u003c\/strong\u003e inside your base unit — the slimmest body of any 180cm downdraft extractor available in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e 1380 m³\/hr — Two Motors, One Seamless Extraction System\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach motor in the Luxair 180cm downdraft delivers \u003cstrong\u003e750 m³\/hr independently\u003c\/strong\u003e, and together they produce a combined \u003cstrong\u003e1380 m³\/hr\u003c\/strong\u003e of continuous extraction across the full 180cm panel. The dual motor design ensures extraction pressure is maintained evenly along the entire length of the filtration area — not concentrated at one end. Whether you're cooking on a 90cm induction hob at one end and a gas burner at the other, or running four domino hob zones simultaneously, both motors work in tandem to draw steam and odours downward before they rise into the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt for Every Dual Hob Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 180cm width is specifically engineered for kitchens where cooking ambition outgrows a single hob. Compatible configurations include two \u003cstrong\u003e90cm hobs side by side\u003c\/strong\u003e, a \u003cstrong\u003e90cm induction hob paired with a 60cm induction or gas hob\u003c\/strong\u003e, a full run of \u003cstrong\u003edomino hobs\u003c\/strong\u003e across 180cm of worktop, or any combination of modular cooking zones that adds up to 180cm. If you're designing a kitchen around serious multi-course, multi-zone cooking — this is the extraction infrastructure it requires.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e500mm Rise — The Height That Changes Everything\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike its 90cm sibling, the Luxair 180cm downdraft rises to a full \u003cstrong\u003e500mm above the worktop\u003c\/strong\u003e — significantly taller than the 300–350mm rise offered by most competing downdraft models. That extra height means the extraction panel reaches closer to where steam and vapour actually form, particularly when using large pots, woks, stockpots, and high-sided cookware across multiple zones simultaneously. The unit auto-stops at 200mm as a safety position, but can be raised manually to any height up to the full 500mm. \u003cstrong\u003eFor gas hob use, the unit must always be operated at the full 500mm rise height\u003c\/strong\u003e to prevent heat damage to the LED lighting and internal components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOnly 90mm Deep — Maximum Cabinet Space Preserved\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt just \u003cstrong\u003e90mm deep\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Luxair 180cm downdraft is the slimmest unit of its type available — leaving significantly more usable space in your base unit cabinets than comparable models. For kitchen islands where under-counter storage is as important as the cooking surface above, that slim profile is a genuine practical advantage. The unit installs flush with the worktop surface when retracted, presenting a completely uninterrupted island top when not in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTouch Controls, LED Lighting \u0026amp; Optional Remote\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003etouch control panel\u003c\/strong\u003e manages both motors and all lighting from a single interface — responsive, easy to clean, and designed to match the matt black finish of the unit. \u003cstrong\u003eLED lighting\u003c\/strong\u003e illuminates the full width of the cooking surface, providing even task lighting across all hob zones. An \u003cstrong\u003eoptional remote control\u003c\/strong\u003e is available, particularly useful for large islands where reaching the control panel mid-cook isn't always convenient. \u003cstrong\u003eGas hob users must always operate the unit at maximum 500mm rise height\u003c\/strong\u003e — lower heights expose the LED array to heat levels that will cause damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDucted or Recirculating — Island or Wall-Side\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 180cm twin motor downdraft supports \u003cstrong\u003educted extraction\u003c\/strong\u003e routed through underfloor ducting to an external wall, or \u003cstrong\u003erecirculating installation\u003c\/strong\u003e using Luxair's optional ceramic plinth filter kit (sold separately) for islands where floor ducting is not feasible. Given the combined 1380 m³\/hr output, Luxair strongly recommends \u003cstrong\u003e200mm (8\") ducting\u003c\/strong\u003e for optimal unrestricted performance — undersized ducting will significantly reduce extraction efficiency at this motor rating. Luxair's home survey engineers can plan the ducting route for your specific island layout before purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant installation note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Do not pre-cut your worktop before the unit arrives. If you are having custom worktops manufactured, your kitchen fitter must verify all cutout dimensions directly with Luxair before cutting — dimensions are subject to update and Luxair cannot accept liability for errors resulting from pre-cut measurements taken before delivery.
