Falmec KACL.1049 Carbon.Zeo Microtech Regenerable Filter (≤100 cm Ceiling Hoods)
High-efficiency, regenerable activated-carbon filter designed for Falmec ceiling hoods up to 100 cm wide (e.g., Nube, Nuvola 90, Sirio, Stella Plus 90). Uses a polyurethane mesh embedded with carbon and zeolite microspheres to dramatically improve odor removal and moisture absorption—allowing truly silent recirculation without external ducting.
🏷️ Product Title & SKU
Carbon.Zeo Microtech Regenerable Filter for Ceiling Hoods ≤ 100 cm SKU KACL.1049
EAN: 8034122714448
The KACL.1049 filter is engineered specifically for Falmec ceiling‐mounted hoods up to 1 m in width (including models such as Nube, Nuvola 90, Sirio, and Stella Plus 90). Rather than venting fumes outside, this filter converts any compatible ceiling hood into a recirculation hood that:
Maximizes Odor & Moisture Capture: Carbon and zeolite microspheres are distributed on a polyurethane mesh, vastly increasing active filtering surface area for superior odor removal and moisture absorption compared to traditional flat charcoal inserts
Regenerable & Cost‐Effective: Simply wash under warm water every 6 months (or upon odor/reduction decline) to regenerate—no need for disposable replacements.
Plug-and-Play Installation: Conforms exactly to the built-in filter slot in Falmec ceiling hoods (≤ 100 cm), requiring no additional modification.
Whether you live in an apartment with no ductport or desire a silent, ductless solution, KACL.1049 upgrades your ceiling hood to near-ducted recirculation performance—eliminating kitchen odors without extra noise or external vents.

Not Included: Any ceiling-hood body or motor—KACL.1049 is strictly an accessory filter element.
Superior Active Filtration:
Carbon + Zeolite Microspheres: Each microsphere adsorbs volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and odors more effectively than standard activated charcoal blocks.
Open-Cell Polyurethane Mesh: Provides a 3D reticular structure, maximizing contact surface area for faster odor removal and moisture absorption.
Regenerable (Plug-and-Play):
Wash & Reuse: Simply rinse under warm tap water every 6 months—no costly replacements required.
Long-Term Cost Savings: Compared to disposable filters, KACL.1049 lasts indefinitely if maintained properly.
Optimized Airflow & Silent Operation:
Minimal Pressure Drop: The open-mesh design preserves ≥ 95 % of the hood’s nominal extraction capacity, ensuring strong suction even in recirculation mode.
Noise Reduction Synergy: Used in combination with Falmec’s NRS® or SRS® silencers, KACL.1049 helps maintain quiet operation—ideal for open-plan environments.
Universal Fit for ≤ 100 cm Ceiling Hoods:
Nube, Nuvola 90, Sirio, Stella Plus 90, and Similar Models: Exact dimensions ensure seamless insertion into the factory filter shelf without gaps or adapters.
Easy Installation & Removal:
Slide-In Replacement: Simply remove the old filter, slide KACL.1049 into the slot until it rests flush, and reinstall the hood’s retaining bracket.
No Tools Required: The filter sits on built-in supports; no screws or clips needed.
Eco-Friendly & Hygienic:
Natural Adsorbents (Carbon + Zeolite): No chemical binders—safe in food-preparation areas.
Washable Material: Eliminates biofilm buildup; maintain a hygienic environment over years.
Which ceiling hoods work with KACL.1049?
Any Falmec ceiling-mounted hood up to 100 cm wide that includes a built-in filter shelf—notably:
Nube (60 cm / 90 cm models)
Nuvola 90
Sirio (≤ 100 cm models)
Stella Plus 90
If your hood has a removable flat charcoal filter or a honeycomb slot sized approximately 340 × 300 × 13 mm, KACL.1049 will fit.
How do I regenerate the filter?
Remove KACL.1049 from the hood.
Rinse the filter under warm tap water (no soap or detergents) for 1–2 minutes, gently massaging the mesh.
Shake off excess water and let it air dry completely (12–24 hours).
Reinstall in the hood.
✦ Regenerate at least every 6 months or sooner if cooking odors persist.
How long does the filter last?
Indefinitely—as long as it is properly washed and allowed to dry fully. Carbon and zeolite microspheres are not consumed in the process; they retain their adsorption capacity.
Does KACL.1049 reduce airflow capacity?
The open-cell polyurethane mesh and uniform microsphere distribution produce a minimal pressure drop—over 95 % of the hood’s nominal airflow is preserved when used with a clean filter.
Can I wash it in the dishwasher?
No. Hand-wash only under warm running water. Avoid dishwashing detergents or high-temperature spray, as they can degrade the polyurethane mesh.
Is the filter safe in high-humidity kitchens (steam cooking)?
Yes. The zeolite component excels at moisture absorption, preventing condensation buildup that can reduce performance. Always allow it to fully air dry before reinstalling to avoid mold or bacterial growth.
What if my hood is > 100 cm wide?
For ceiling-mount hoods over 100 cm, use KACL.1050 (Carbon.Zeo Microtech filter for widths > 100 cm).
What is the warranty?
2-year limited warranty from Falmec when used with a qualifying Falmec ceiling-mount hood.
Apartment & Condo Kitchens: Transform your Falmec ceiling hood into a fully self-contained recirculation system—bypass building duct restrictions while eliminating cooking odors.
Open-Plan Layouts: Maintain a whisper-quiet kitchen environment by combining KACL.1049 with Falmec’s NRS® or SRS® silencers—perfect for family gatherings or entertaining.
Steam & Vapor-Heavy Cooking: Ideal for sous-vide, wok-heavy stir-fry, or steam oven use; the zeolite microspheres lock in excess moisture, preventing lingering humidity.
Eco-Conscious Homes: Celebrate sustainable design by choosing a regenerable filter—no disposables filling landfills. Simply wash and reuse.
Minimalist Aesthetics: Invisible behind the hood’s grille—no need for bulky external canisters or visible charcoal blocks.
