MAINTAIN A GREEN HOME AND SAVE
ON TOTAL ENERGY COSTS

Ways to Go Green in Your Kitchen and Bath” from
the 2008 Summer issue of “Woman’s Day Kitchen and Baths”.
Example #7 features a Faber hood.
Let’s explain how a Faber can help
you save money and be healthier:
- Besides using very little energy, Faber hoods help
to keep energy costs down in your home. When you turn the range hood
on you are keeping cooling costs
down.
Humidity and heat build in the kitchen when cooking, so you are spending
more money on cooling that hot air. By using a range hood, you
are eliminating cooking
by-products (heat and humidity) and keeping air conditioning costs down.
- Keep
your home green! – By using effective ventilation in your
home like a Faber range hood, you are eliminating harmful odors (like
gas fumes) from your
home. Also humid, greasy, steamy air over time can cause mold and mildew
to build up in the kitchen, causing possible respiratory problems. Faber
even has hoods
that can be used as all day air purifiers. The Matrix, Orizzonte and
Velvet have a 24-hour anti-pollution mode, which runs the hood at approximately
60 cfm all
day. You can ventilate your whole home all day long and refresh the air. So
for as little as $2.29 per year, you are reducing overall air cooling
costs, and maintaining a healthy, safe and green home for you and your
family!

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE
Faber has always been forward thinking for over 50 years. Faber
is constantly working on new technologies to improve energy
efficiency and make products greener.
Faber is introducing hoods that use energy efficient LED lighting and
also require less energy to operate overall because of more
efficient ventilation technologies. The Matrix, Velvet, Orrizonte, Cylindra and Cylindra Isola are examples of hoods using Perimetric technology to reduce consumption.
