Caple’s new induction downdraft extractor (DD810BK) features an integrated motor, located just below the hob. 

When using the hob, the display and touch controls are illuminated. Then, when this appliance is not in use, the display disappears from view, creating a discreet aesthetic as only the “on” icon is visible.

Caple Product Manager Luke Shipway said: “Our new induction downdraft extractor gives you the option of recirculating the air using a charcoal filter or you can duct it outside. This A+ energy-rated hob is highly versatile. 

“For example, you can combine the front and rear induction zones on each side using the Bridge function, which will instantly create two larger cooking areas. This makes the DD810BK ideal when cooking for a crowd, whether you’ve got a large family or you’re hosting a party.”

Other key features include Grill for use with a griddle plate and permanent pan recognition so you can switch on a cooking setting via the touch-control slider after a pan has been detected on the hob. 

The Keep Warm function will also keep the food in your pan at a perfect temperature till the user is ready to serve and eat.

With four induction zones, each with 10 power levels including their own dedicated booster and Auto Boost mode, the new DD810BK features a sleek, black glass finish with a stylish stainless-steel extractor grille. 

This frameless model is also suitable for flush or inset installation and features an automatic (10 to 60 minute) timer which will switch the extractor off ten minutes after cooking finishes.

The DD810BK measures 800mm (length) by 520mm (width) by 208mm (depth).
