Bosch Extractor Fan Angled

[FiremanT]

I am looking at a new Bosch Kitchen: Comments welcome on any of these.

I found

2 DWK85DK60B​

The external duct kit is not included. Does one buy a kit specifically made by Bosch, or is there a generic kit available?
I found some install instructionsm but I dont understand German! Any link availabele?

Thanks

Generic . It’s just a hose or tube.

If it is on an outside wall One of these or similar https://www.toolstation.com/extractor-hood-ducting-kit/p44238?store=EB but you need to check the ducting is the correct size for the fan or buy an adaptor . I would also recommend you look for a kit with, or purchase seperately, a cowl external vent type rather than the the shutter type shown with this one

you mean like:

Thanks. Why do you say that: Do the flaps stick? With the cowl type, I am assuming that there would be a draught when the fan is off?

A decent fan unit has a none return flap to prevent draughts .

The cowl type are sturdier and flap around less during windy spells therfore make less irritating noise and are better at preventing back draughts.
I've never seen a cooker hood with a back draught shutter.
I meant a kit like this from S/FX not like the one in your pic. but yes that type of cowl

Thanks, FH. The code number brings up a "flappy" one, not a "cowl"? Do you mean it is better quality than the other?
But I do take your point about rattling.

If you don't have a problem with wind blowing across the face of vent then that sort should be ok. If you do then as I say the cowl type perform much better and if you can't find a kit that includes a cowl then I would buy and fit a cowl seperatly and not use the one with veins.
