Information: The ECOVent condensate hood has been designed to fit on
Electrolux ovens only, specifically models 269281, 267281, 267280
No direct connection to an outgoing extract system is required,
as the steam laden air filtered by means of baffle filters, mesh
moisture eliminators and perforated cassette.
Instruction: 1.2.1 Unscrew the 2 No. centre fixing screws, located to the rear
of the ovens, that fix the roof panel in place. Screw the fixing bracket (8)
into position using the holes provided.
1.2.2. Remove the nuts from the two locating studs fitted to the
bottom rear of the condensate hood.
Safety: 1.2.3. Carefully lift the condensate hood ( kg) into position, ensuring
the locating stud fit into the holes on the fixing bracket. Take care
To lift condensate hood clear of the flues exposed on the roof of the
oven. Refit nuts and tighten.
1.2.4. Check steadiness of unit when condensate hood is lifted on
combi steamer.
1.2.5. Condensate hood is not developed for floor standing units.
1.2.6. Before connecting the condensate hood ensure the information
on the rating plate corresponds.

Section 1 – Installation
Instructions: 1.3.1. Place the door magnet (11) as Fig 1. and mark the fitting
hole on top of the oven door.
1.3.2. Drill on No. 2.4mm diameter hole, and tap with M3 thread.
1.3.3. Fix the magnet into place, ensuring the distance is set to read,
when door is opened to ventilation position.
Information: The reed switch is already fixed to the condensate hood.
1.4 Connection to Services
Information: The condensate hood requires a cold water supply, a suitable
waste pipe fitted to the drain and a 120 volt single phase
electrical supply.
Instruction: 1.4.1 Cold Water Supply. Fit the ¾” nylon Y branch (9) to the
inlet connection on the underside of the oven. Onto this flexible
hose (10) is to be fitted, with the opposite end connecting to the
inlet on the rear of the condensate hood. Check your Electrolux
manual for correct water quality etc.
1.4.2. Drain Connection. The drain pipe has been designed to
allow ease of interface with a 1 ¼” waste pipe. The smaller pipe
is an overflow, and should not be connected to the waste.
1.4.3. Electrical Supply. Remove the back plate (7) to allow access
to controls compartment. Connect a 120v/1/60 supply into the
designated connector block. Refit to panel.
Information: For further information see wiring diagram in section 3.2

Section 1 – Installation
1.5 Commissioning
Information: 1.5.1. Sequence of Operation. If all of the services have been
connected correctly, the sequence of operation is as follows.
Green illuminated on-off toggle switch will turn condensate hood
power on. At this time the fan will run at low speech (Idle). When
the door of the oven is opened, the magnetic reed switch triggers
the fan to increase in speed, and a cold water mist to be produced.
This will run for 24 seconds (factory setting) before returning to idle.
Closing the door will also return the condensate hood to idle.
Instruction: 1.5.2. Prior to running the condensate hood for the first time, ensure
that both the mesh moisture eliminator (5) and baffle filters (6) are
fitted. Ensure all services and drains have been connected as
described in section 1.4 and oven is switched off.
1.5.3. Turn power on via toggle switch. Fan will run. Open oven
door to confirm activation of reed switch and allow to run for the
full 24 seconds. (Until the water stops automatically.) Open and
close the door twice more (and run for the full 24 seconds), to
allow the weir in the base of the condensate hood to fill. The
condensate hood is now ready for use.

Section 2 – Operation
2.1 Safety
Safety 2.1.1. The ECOVent condensate hood is designated only for
extracting steam and vapor from Electrolux ovens only,
specifically models 269281, 267281, 267280.
2.1.2. The manufacturer accepts no liability of damages in case of
non-designated use, or incorrect operation or installation.
2.1.3. The protection class IP55 of the condensate hood does not
include the connection cable-shock-proof socket.
2.1.4. Always disconnect from the power supply, before carrying
out any cleaning operations.
2.1.5. Do not clean the condensate hood with any type of high
pressure cleaner, water sprayer or hose.
2.1.6. Regularly clean the baffle filters, inside and outside of the
condensate hood.
2.1.7. Excess grease build up on any part of a condensate hood
presents itself as a possible fire hazard. Ensure baffle filters are
cleaned regularly, and while they are removed clean internal
areas that are accessible.
2.1.8. Damage due to irregular cleaning invalidates any warrantee claim.
2.1.9. Always ensure condensate hood is running when oven steamer
is operating. This will reduce condensation within the condensate hood.
2.2 Regular Operation
Instruction: 2.2.1. Day to day operation of the condensate hood requires very
little user interaction as the condensate hood is essentially automatic
2.2.2. During cooking operations, opening the oven door should be
done carefully. Open the door to the ventilation position (raised
handle), as described in the Electrolux user manual, and leave
for a few seconds (approx. 15) before opening fully. This will allow
the majority of the steam and vapors to be removed efficiently.
2.2.3. Turn off power to condensate hood during extended periods
of inactivity, such as overnight of between sessions.

2.3 Cleaning and Maintenance
Safety: 2.3.1. Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance on the
condensate hood, ensure the power supply is disconnected.
Information: 2.3.2. The baffle filters should be removed and cleaned in a
dishwasher regularly, at least every two weeks.
Experience could suggest more frequently, dependant on
contaminant build up.
2.3.3. The condensate hood casing should be cleaned of
contaminant build up, inside and out, with a hot mild cleaning
solution and dried with a towel.
2.3.4. No corrosive or highly caustic alkaline cleaners or
sourcing cleaning solution should be used.
2.3.5. The removable mesh moisture eliminators should
be cleaned with a hot cleaning solution regularly, at least every
four weeks, or as experience suggests.
2.3.6. The cold water mist nozzles should be checked for operating
and the apertures cleaned with fine wire, when required.
2.3.7. To remove baffle filters, lift and swing bottom away from
you. Pull out top first. To remove mesh moisture eliminators grab
knobs and pull towards you. To refit reverse procedures.
2.3.8. Once a year the condensate hood should be checked by a
technician.
2.3.9. Troubleshooting:
• Fan does not run• Check if power plug is connected and
main switch is on
• Call customer service
• Fan always runs in high speed, or
never in high speed.
• Has the door magnet been fitted, and if
so, is it in the right position?
• Call customer service
• Steam and vapor is not condensed• Ensure water is connected to the hood
Safety: 2.3.9 Under no circumstances must unqualified personnel
attempt any repair of servicing within the back panel section
of the condensate hood. Risk of electric shock which can cause
serious injury or death. If technical difficulties are experienced
contact your local service agent.
