The Hindware Florence BLDC 60cm Kitchen Chimney is built around a technology that sets it apart from other BLDC chimneys in the Hindware range: MaxX Silence Technology. Developed to produce 32% less noise than conventional auto-clean chimneys, the Florence is engineered specifically for households where quiet operation matters — open-plan living spaces, kitchens close to bedrooms, or simply those who prefer to cook without the persistent hum of a standard chimney hood. The 190W BLDC motor delivers 1550 m³/h of suction, making it one of the higher-output 60cm chimneys available, while MaxX Silence ensures this power comes without the associated noise penalty.
The Automatic Louvre Opening is a practical feature that distinguishes the Florence from most chimneys in its class. When the chimney is switched on, the front louvre panel opens automatically to maximise the suction inlet area and improve airflow efficiency; when the chimney is switched off, it closes again to keep the interior protected and present a clean profile. This also improves the chimney's aesthetic when not in use — no permanently open hood visible in the kitchen. A Turbo Mode provides an instant surge of maximum suction when heavy frying or high-heat cooking produces a sudden burst of smoke or fumes.
Filterless technology and thermal auto-clean handle maintenance without manual scrubbing or filter replacement — suction stays consistent, and grease is liquefied by the auto-clean cycle and drained into an oil collector for easy disposal. Motion sensor gesture control and touch panel operation give two convenient ways to manage the chimney during cooking. Backed by a 12-year motor warranty and 3-year comprehensive product warranty, the Florence is a premium, feature-rich 60cm chimney for Indian kitchens.
MaxX Silence is Hindware's noise-reduction engineering that produces 32% less noise than conventional auto-clean chimneys at equivalent suction levels. This is not merely a reduction in motor noise — it reflects optimised airflow design, blower geometry, and mounting that collectively reduce operational noise, making the Florence one of the quietest chimneys available in this suction class.
The 190W Brushless DC motor delivers 1550 m³/h of maximum suction — among the highest outputs available in a 60cm chimney — while consuming less electricity and generating less heat than a conventional induction motor at similar output. BLDC motors also have a longer operational lifespan, contributing to the chimney's 12-year motor warranty.
When the chimney is switched on, the front louvre automatically opens to maximise airflow and suction efficiency. When switched off, it closes, protecting the interior from dust accumulation and presenting a clean, sleek appearance. This is a feature typically found on higher-specification chimneys and gives the Florence a distinctly premium look and function.
A single press of the Turbo mode button instantly switches the chimney to maximum suction, ideal for moments when heavy frying or deep-frying creates a sudden surge of smoke and fumes that the regular speed setting may not fully capture immediately.
No filters to wash, replace, or have block the airflow over time. The filterless design ensures consistent suction efficiency throughout the chimney's service life, without the maintenance burden of filter-based chimneys.
A single touch activates the auto-clean cycle, heating the chimney's interior to liquefy accumulated grease and drain it into the oil collector. No dismantling, no scrubbing, and no filter soaking — maintenance is genuinely minimal.
The touch control panel provides direct access to speed settings, Turbo mode, lighting, and the auto-clean function. The motion sensor allows hands-free on/off switching with a wave of the hand — useful during cooking when touch control is inconvenient.
LED lights illuminate the cooking area from above, providing broad, even visibility while drawing minimal power compared to conventional chimney lighting options.
The BLDC motor is backed by a 12-year manufacturer warranty. The complete product carries a 3-year comprehensive warranty — reflecting confidence in the Florence's overall build quality.
MaxX Silence is Hindware's noise-reduction engineering applied to the Florence range, producing 32% less operational noise than conventional auto-clean chimneys. It combines motor design, airflow optimisation, and blower geometry to reduce the hum and vibration that make standard chimneys intrusive during cooking.
It opens the front panel of the chimney automatically when the unit is switched on, maximising the suction inlet area for better airflow efficiency. When switched off, it closes automatically, protecting the interior and maintaining a clean visual profile in the kitchen.
Turbo Mode instantly boosts the chimney to its maximum suction capacity. It is most useful during sudden bursts of heavy smoke — deep frying, high-heat tempering, or charring — where the active speed setting may not capture fumes quickly enough.
Yes, fully filterless. There is no filter of any type — no baffle, mesh, or cassette. Suction efficiency stays consistent without any filter maintenance over the chimney's life.
Both are BLDC chimneys with filterless auto-clean at 60cm. The Florence adds MaxX Silence Technology (32% quieter operation), Automatic Louvre Opening, and Turbo Mode — features not present on the Darcia. It also has a marginally higher suction capacity (1550 vs 1500 m³/h). The Florence is positioned as the quieter, higher-spec option in the 60cm BLDC range.
60cm is the standard for kitchens with 2–4 burner cooktops. If your cooktop is 60cm wide or narrower, the Florence 60 is the correct match. For 5-burner or 90cm cooktops, a 90cm chimney is recommended.
For daily Indian cooking, running the auto-clean cycle once or twice a month is sufficient to maintain clean internal components and consistent suction performance.
Yes. Wall mounting, duct routing, and electrical connection should be handled by a qualified technician. Hindware provides professional installation through its authorised service network.
12-year motor warranty and 3-year comprehensive warranty on the complete product.
Yes — MaxX Silence Technology makes the Florence particularly well suited to open-plan kitchens where noise from the chimney would otherwise carry into the living area during cooking.
