For BORA, the revolution of the kitchen as a living space begins at the heart of every kitchen: Effective cooktop extractor systems that are quiet, do not obstruct the view, provide highly-effective filtration of cooking odours and that are easy to clean, enable a new way of cooking and an impressive kitchen architecture. Cooktop extractor systems by BORA
As the pioneer for ventilation technology, we have always been committed to the effective extraction of cooking vapours and grease particles, directly where they occur, in the pot or pan.
With BORA, you cook surrounded by fresh air with a clear view of the essentials: good food and the people you enjoy sharing it with.
With the modular and compact BORA cooktop extractor systems, unlimited freedom in kitchen design and planning is guaranteed. But what are the differences between the two systems?
Freely combine cooktops and extractors to suit your personal cooking preferences: from surface induction to gas cooktops, the stainless steel tepanyaki grill and even the wok cooktop.
The compact cooktop extractor systems offer a suitable solution for all requirements. Depending on the model, choose from surface induction, induction, to hyper glass ceramic.
All BORA cooktop extractor systems are available in both recirculation and exhaust air versions. Each system has its advantages. The best choice for each kitchen depends not least on the structural conditions.
A recirculation extractor uses a grease and odour filter to remove cooking odours and grease particles from the air before returning the clean air into the kitchen environment.
An exhaust air extractor uses an exhaust pipe system with a wall sleeve to channel the drawn-in air through an outer wall, roof or cellar and release it outside.
An overview of the questions most frequently asked about our cooktop extractor systems is provided here.
The BORA cooktop series generally differ with regard to the following: size, design, controls and options for mixing and matching. The modular systems (Professional & Classic) enable different cooktops to be mixed and matched in line with personal preferences. The compact systems (X Pure, M Pure, Pure, S Pure, Basic) each combine a cooktop with four cooking zones and an effective extractor.
In contrast to traditional extractor hoods with a high noise level at head height, BORA is quieter when cooking than normal noises that occur during roasting. The volume level largely depends on the BORA system used, the individual installation situation and the room conditions.
Our BORA systems can be planned individually. For price information and an individual offer please contact a BORA partner in your area.
BORA cooktop extractors need different amounts of space depending on the model and the setup. A kitchen unit with a minimum width of 90 cm is required for the Professional 3.0 with a combination of two individually selectable cooktops (2-cooktop version) and the X Pure. For the Classic 2.0 (2-cooktop version), M Pure, Pure and Basic, a base unit with a minimum width of 80 cm suffices and for the S Pure, a minimum width of just 60 cm is enough.
The advantages include: Design & aesthetics – the flush-installed extractors in the cooktop create an open-plan and modern look. Quiet operation: the cooktop extractors are generally quieter than extractor hoods. More effective extraction.
The main disadvantages are that the procurement costs are usually higher and the systems require more space in the base unit.
Steam and vapours rise at a maximum speed of one metre per second. The BORA cooktop extracts with cross flow suction that is higher than the speed at which cooking vapours rise. In this way, the cooking vapours and odours are effectively extracted on the cooktop.
