Why this kitchen canopie earns its place
The Lincat Lynx 400 is built for kitchens where smoke, steam, and cooking odours need serious management. It draws fumes through a powerful centrifugal fan, then passes them through a double-bank filtration system that captures grease and particulates before exhausting to the outside or recirculating, depending on your installation. The dual-stage approach means you're getting both initial impact filtration and secondary catch, which extends filter life and improves air quality.
Built from stainless steel in a satin finish, the unit resists corrosion from the damp, greasy environment of a working kitchen. At 560 mm wide and 1,304 mm deep, it's sized for capturing fumes from a significant work zone — whether that's a prep counter, range line, or multiple cooking stations. The 620 mm height lets it sit comfortably above worktops without creating an obstruction, and the weight of 42.6 kg means it's substantial enough to feel solid without being unwieldy for install.
The filtration approach gives you flexibility. If you're venting externally, the double bank system keeps your external ductwork cleaner and reduces grease buildup in the exhaust stack. If you're recirculating (which some kitchens choose for energy efficiency), the filtration handles the heavy lifting of air cleaning. Either way, filter maintenance is part of the routine, and a clean filter keeps the centrifugal fan running at full power.
