While we often pay close attention to the quality of the air we breathe outside, indoor air quality, especially in the kitchen, is often overlooked. The emission of particulate matter (PM), a mixture of microscopic solid particles and liquid droplets, is a byproduct of any kind of cooking, though certain types release more. These particles include PM2.5, which are fine inhalable pollutants, composed of dust, dirt, soot, or smoke, released directly from the cooking process, and are tiny enough to evade the body’s defenses. The danger to your health occurs when these get inhaled into your lungs, causing irritation and corrosion of the alveolar walls, which affects your lung function. In addition to being a health risk, the byproducts of cooking with oil can also leave a sticky and persistent residue on kitchen surfaces.
To say goodbye to the frustration of oil dripping from your cooker hood and address the challenge of kitchen air quality and cleanliness, FUJIOH developed a new approach to our cooker hoods. Our patented OIL SMASHER technology was created with a specific focus on making hoods more dirt-resistant, directly tackling these common issues. The innovative system uses a high-speed spinning disk to effectively block and collect the majority of oil from cooking fumes, enhancing kitchen ventilation. By keeping internal parts clean, this groundbreaking approach helps prolong the lifespan of your FUJIOH cooker hood and reduces the need for frequent internal maintenance.
When oil is heated to high temperatures for cooking, it can undergo oxidation and release harmful compounds such as aldehydes and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). These compounds can linger, especially in poorly ventilated kitchens, and inhaling them may lead to health problems, including respiratory irritation, headaches, and even long-term effects.
Beyond these health risks, the oil released during cooking can also form a sticky film on kitchen surfaces and nearby cabinets. To minimise these issues, you can use proper cooking techniques, such as putting a lid on a frying pan, and you will need effective ventilation from a cooker hood to maintain a healthy environment.
This is where FUJIOH’s patented OIL SMASHER technology comes in as an effective solution for maintaining a healthy and clean kitchen. Exclusively available in our FR-CL1890 cooker hood, this innovative system uses a high-speed spinning disk to actively capture the majority of oil from cooking fumes. The oil is then flung by centrifugal force directly into an oil tray, preventing buildup on the hood’s internal components. This unique mechanism is highly efficient, contributing to an oil-capturing rate of over 85% based on internal tests. With the fan and internal components staying grease-free, the appliance maintains its efficiency and durability, requiring much less frequent cleaning to stay in top condition.
The unique mechanism of the OIL SMASHER effectively prevents most cooking oil from ever entering the internal components of the hood, particularly the fan. Unlike many other cooker hoods where oil is caught by a series of internal parts like filters and the inner structure, the OIL SMASHER’s spinning disk is built to capture nearly all the oil upfront. This highly efficient process ensures the fan and other internal parts remain clean. As a result, you will notice a significant reduction in the frequency needed for deep cleaning.
The way a cooker hood collects oil directly impacts how much maintenance it requires. With conventional filters, oil is typically filtered and captured by different components, including the filter itself and the fan, before being passed to an oil tray. This often leads to a sticky buildup on the parts.
In contrast, the OIL SMASHER utilises the aforementioned centrifugal force from its spinning disk to block oil. This mechanism efficiently flings the oil directly into the oil tray for collection, bypassing the internal components entirely.
But that’s not all. An oil capturing test conducted by FUJIOH demonstrated that while a traditional filter-based cooker hood needed monthly cleaning, the OIL SMASHER’s disk and tray only needed to be cleaned quarterly to keep the fan and internal parts cleaner.
The difference in maintenance is also validated by our customers. In a testimonial from Shirley and Chris, they highlighted the OIL SMASHER as a standout feature. Despite cooking frequently, on average, four days a week, they found that the oil collection disk required almost no cleaning. They were also surprised by the effectiveness of the hood’s recycling technology. On one occasion when they forgot to open the hood’s panel while cooking, the cooking smell disappeared after they opened it, and they later noticed their cabinet door wasn’t oily, proving the technology’s effectiveness in keeping the surrounding area clean.
