1. INTRODUCTION
During the cooking process, there will be heat, vapours and
fumes produced. Your Westin Bloque Pro built-in extractor has
been designed to complement your kitchen both in looks and
performance in order to create a good environment for creative
cooking and is ideal for applications where a conventional
cooker hood is neither suitable nor desirable (in an inglenook
chimney or kitchen furniture above the hob for example).
2. IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used
for exhausting fumes from appliances supplied with energy
other than electricity e.g. oil or gas-fired central heating boilers,
gas-fired water heaters, etc.
Requirements of the relevant authorities concerning the
discharge of exhaust air must be complied with.
Pay particular attention to fire risk when frying. To minimise the
risk of fire, all instructions relating to cleaning the grease filters
and removing grease deposits must be adhered to.
Do not flambé under the extractor.
The clearance between the hob and the lowest part (base) of
the extractor should be within the following range, unless a
greater distance is specified by your cooking appliance or
furniture manufacturer:
•minimum clearance distances:
450mm above electric hobs and cookers
750mm above gas hobs and cookers, fryers
760mm above wok burners, griddles, barbeques.
•maximum recommended clearance: 850mm
The minimum distance between the hob and the bottom of the
extractor is essential for safety reasons and to prevent
overheating of the extractor and its components.
Please also note that a 90obend in flexible ducting will require
215mm minimum headroom to give a smooth radius with no
kinking.
You are advised to install measures designed to reduce the
incidence of cold draughts entering the property via ductwork.
•For extractors with internal or inline motors, an external
duct termination with integral non-return flaps (e.g. a
gravity shutter wall vent/louvre) is the minimum draught
prevention measure you should install.
•For wall-mounted motors an inline backdraught shutter is
recommended.
3. EXTRACTION PERFORMANCE
This type of extractor is designed to fit into a soffit, with only the
underside visible when installed.
Because fumes spread out as they rise, try to position the
extractor so it sits as far forward over the hob as is practicable
in order to minimise fume escape.
The primary influence on the overall performance of the
extractor is the design of the ducting which takes the exhaust
air from the extractor to the outside. The duct route should be a
prime consideration during the initial stages of the kitchen
design. Westin do not recommend recirculating air back into the
kitchen if it can be avoided.
Please note the following:
•The extractor is provided with a spigot(s) suitable for
connecting 150mm round ducting.
Note: the cross-sectional area of 150mm diameter duct is
the minimum area consistent with efficient extraction.
•The most efficient configuration is to duct straight through
an outside wall, so try to position the cooker close to an
outside wall when designing your kitchen.
•For maximum efficiency, ducting should be kept as short as
possible and as straight as possible with a constant cross-
sectional area being no less than that recommended by
Westin. Bends in the duct will also degrade performance so
the number of bends in a duct run should be kept to a
minimum and be gradual and smooth to prevent turbulence.
Avoid kinks in flexible ducting; pull flexible ducting taut over
straight runs to ensure that theinternal surface is as smooth
as possible.
•If your duct route is straight but exceeds 7m in length, or
exceeds 5m with three bends, then please consult with
Westin as to the suitability of this hood for your application.
•Rigid 150mm round ducting or 220 x 90 flat channel ducting
(available from Westin) will perform best. Semi-rigid round
duct (not flexible foil or PVC) is a reasonable alternativeand
can be formed into bends as necessary.
Flexible ducting is economical but its use should be
minimised because it gives the worst performance of all and
should only be used for the initial connection between the
hood and your fixed ductwork or for very short runs. Flexible
duct must be pulled taut over straight runs to prevent
significant losses in extraction efficiency.
•Try to maintain access to the duct route during installation.
Blind fitting of ducting parts can lead to problems, such as
unseen kinks or damage.
•If using rigid ducting, the initial duct connection to the
extractor spigot should be made using semi-rigid round
ducting. This will allow ducting to be connected to the
extractor before inserting it into furniture, allows for easy
removal and refit (if service is ever necessary) and gives
tolerance for positioning errors between the extractor and
any fixed ducting or holes.
•Ducting components and kits, are available from Westin.
WARNING
Proper care must be taken to ensure that the negative
pressures caused by high performance extraction systems do
not adversely affect the safe operation of certain types of fuel-
burning appliances (gas, oil or solid fuel), including those
installed in the kitchen and also those installed in other parts
of the house.
Where such fuel-burning appliances are installed, adequate
ventilation MUST be provided in the room of installation,
located and sized such that the negative pressure in the room
created by the extractor does not exceed 4Pa.
In case of doubt, do not operate the extractor and fuel-burning
appliance(s) simultaneously and consult an appropriate (for
the fuel type) expert for advice.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
This appliance requires an earth connection.
Ensure that the supply voltage corresponds to that
marked on the rating label inside the extractor.
The extractor must be isolated from the electrical supply
before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance
operations.

4. INSTALLATION
The Bloque Pro range of built-in extractors are designed to slot
into a cut-out/opening made in a horizontal soffit panel (usually
the underside of kitchen furniture or inglenooks/ chimney
arrangements).
4.1. Prepare Your Opening
Prepare an opening in the structure into which the unit will be
fitted (see table below). Reinforce the opening as necessary
and make suitable provisions for the screws that will hold the
unit in place.
Unit Size (mm)
(Width x Depth)
Cut-out Size (mm)
(Width x Depth)
1200 x 445
1170 x 415
1500 x 445
1470 x 415
The appliance features fixing holes in the chassis that are used
fix the appliance in place within the soffit. These fixing holes are
accessible from within the unit. Remove the grease filters to
gain access to the fixing holes.
Prior to fitting the appliance, a timber structure will be required
as shown below. The timber sections (or batons) should be
located in order for a suitable wood screw to pass through the
appliance fixing holes and securely bite into the timberstructure
without any give or wobble.
4.2. Ducting Requirements and Installation
Make holes, as necessary, in the furniture, walls, or ceiling to
take 150mm round ducting (or an equivalent flat channel duct)
from the exhaust spigot location to the outside.
The duct route length should be kept as short as possible with
as few bends as possible (see Section 3).
Note: We recommend oversizing your duct holes by 25mm to
allow for any cables that may need to run alongside the duct
(such as remote motor or power cables) and to generally make
the installation of your ducting easier.
You should try to install all ductwork before fitting the extractor,
however, if this is not possible then all holes in walls or furniture
must be made in advance of fitting the extractor to avoid any
debris entering the appliance.
Regardless of the duct type being used for the majority of
your duct run, the initial duct connection to the extractor
spigot should be made using semi-rigid 150mm round
ducting. You should therefore terminate your duct in the
kitchen such that a length of semi rigid duct hangs down
through the opening in your soffit. This is important because
it will enable the ducting to be connected to the extractor
exhaust spigot before it is inserted into the furniture and allows
for easy removal and refit if service is ever necessary. It also
gives a degree of tolerance for any misalignment between the
extractor spigot and any fixed ductwork.
If terminating on an outside wall a suitable weather louvre
should be fitted. A variety of ducting components and complete
kits are available from Westin to suit most installations.
For roof or chimney duct terminations please contact Westin or
seek alternative specialist advice.
If you are fitting a wall-mounted external motor with semi-rigid
or flexible ducting, then you must leave a short length (approx.
200mm) of ducting proud of the wall, to enable connection to
the motor spigot, before pushing both back flush with the wall.
•Recirculating Models
Westin do not recommend recirculating air installations and
they should be avoided wherever possible (see section 3).
If your extractor has been adapted for recirculation, (not the
standard configuration) then adequate provision must be made
for exhausted air to return into the kitchen after being expelled
from the extractor exhaust spigot. Adequate provision means
the air can travel back to the kitchen via means equivalent to
that of 150mm round ducting. This can be achieved, for
example, by ducting to a vent in the top of a cabinet (or
elsewhere in the room) or by creating an opening into the room
in the top of your furniture. Failure to allow the air back into the
kitchen will render the extractor ineffective, may cause the unit
to overheat and fail, and will invalidate your warranty.
4.3. Remote External Wall and Inline SEM Motors
If your extractor has been purchased to operate with a standard
inline or external remote motor (SEM), then you will find a black
plastic terminal box above the extractor, on a flying lead,
containing electrical terminals for connection to the remote
motor cable assembly. This box is referred to as the remote
motor terminal box.
Each terminal inside the remote motor terminal box has one
side connected to a coloured wire (which leads back to the hood
control system). The remote motor cable assembly also has
coloured wires and these are connected to the empty terminal.
Such corresponding colours are opposite and connect to each
other; i.e. red connects to red, blue to blue, and so on.
Not all terminals will be used as each remote motor type is
configured differently.
An electrician (or Part P registered electrical installer) should
undertake any work associated with the electrical installation of
SEM remote motors.
If you need to extend the remote motor cable then additional
cable can be purchased from Westin. Alternatively, it may be
extended using 7 core x 0.5mm flex. It is vital to ensure that any
new cable is inserted such that the core colour integrity is

maintained; i.e. a core that started as red must terminate as
red, blue as blue, purple as purple, and so on.
Any remote motor should be installed in accordance with the
installation instructions that accompany it. It must be installed
in an easily accessible location for future maintenance. Westin
are not responsible for providing the means of access (e.g.
scaffolding or any alterations to the building and/or furniture
necessary to make access possible) in the event of any
maintenance requirement.
No separate power supply is required for SEM remote motors.
4.4. Electrical Installation
The Bloque Pro extractor is a fixed electrical appliance.
A qualified electrical technician must perform the installation of
the electrical supply to the extractor.
The hood must be fed from a dedicated 230Vac single
phase electrical supply terminated with a switched spur fitted
with a 3A fuse. The spur should be located adjacent to the
hood/cooker so that the supply can be disconnected from the
hood using the switch. The means of disconnection from the
supply must have a minimum contact separation of 3mm in all
poles. Alternatively, a means ofdisconnection in the fixed wiring
according to the relevant wiring rules must be fitted.
The appliance is supplied with an electrical supply flex for
connection to the electrical supply. The mains supply is
connected to the free end of this flex as follows:
INCOMING SUPPLY CORD CONNECTIONS
Core
Core Colour
Live
Brown
Neutral
Blue
Protective Earth
Green/Yellow
For your convenience during installation, we recommend
terminating the electrical supply from the switched-fused spur
with a standard 3 pin mains socket, positioned close to the
extractors intended location within the furniture.
The extractor can then be fitted with astandard mains electrical
plug so it can be plugged in to the supply socket by the
appliance installer.
Make sure the switched-fused spur supplying the extractor is in
the off position before connecting the appliance to the electrical
supply.
4.5. Fixing the Extractor in Position
Please note the following prior to commencing fixing the
extractor in position:
•Two people are required to install the unit.
•The unit will need supporting close to the opening when
attaching the ducting and making electrical connections.
•As described in 4.2 (Ducting Requirements), ducting should
have been installed so that a semi rigid or flexible portion
hangs down through the soffit opening.
•Do not remove protective tape until after the installation.
•Remove the grease filters.
Screws for fixing the extractor into position are not provided.
You must use suitable fixings capable of supporting 30kg per
screw.
If you are screwing into timber, then you should use screws no
smaller than 5mm (No 10) with a head diameter of 10mm or
more and ensure that at least 35mm of thread is screwed into
the timber and that the timber will not split when the screws are
inserted.
The unit will need supporting close to the opening when
attaching the ducting and making electrical connections –do
not be tempted to install excessive ducting as this will impair
performance.
As described earlier, a length of semi-rigid ducting protruding a
short distance through the centre of the opening is sufficient for
the final connection to the extractor spigot. This will allow the
unit to be fixed into position with the duct connected and
prevents excessive lengths of flexible ducting being pushed into
the opening. This may lead to loss of efficiency. (see section 3).
•Support the extractor just below the prepared cut-out so that
the spigot and electrical connections are accessible.
•Make sure that the electrical supply to the electrical supply
spur is isolated (switched off) and connect the electrical
supply cord of the extractor to the spur.
•Attach the ducting to the spigot using suitable clamps or
straps (available from Westin). We do not recommend using
duct tape as the only means of fixing - this should only be
used to improve the seal in the joint.
•Push the extractor up into the cut-out, taking care not to
crush or introduce excessive bends/kinks in the ducting and
making sure that no wires are trapped or damaged in the
process.
Note: If the duct or any wires are trapped, then you must lower
the extractor and make corrections to the cut-out area as
necessary before fixing the appliance in position.
•Secure the extractor in place using suitable fixings (not
supplied) through the fixing holes within the extractor body.
•Now test the function of the unit as described in the
operating instructions (SECTION 6).
If the lights or motor do not function correctly, then isolate the
electrical supply and check all the electrical connections before
contacting Westin.
If you experience any further difficulties, please call Westin for
advice.
ELECTRICAL HAZARD.
DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL SUPPLY BEFORE
PROCEEDING FURTHER
When planning and undertaking your
installation, you must ensure the extractor can
be removed without disturbing fixed ducting or
electrical installations, should future servicing
be required.

6. MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance is essential to ensure good performance
and long-life.
To maintain the immaculate appearance of the extractor, and
to minimise fire risk, ensure that grease deposits on the
extractor surfaces are kept to a minimum by regular cleaning.
To clean the stainless-steel surfaces of the extractor, use a soft
cloth and a suitable cleaning agent, such as a specially
produced stainless-steel cleaner, or washing up detergent and
warm water.
Painted surfaces should be cleaned using a soft cloth,
detergent and warm water.
Glass surfaces should be cleaned with a suitable glass cleaning
agent.
•Do not use bleach-based cleaning products or
abrasive materials.
Clean the grease filters in a dishwasher or by hand-washing in
hot water and detergent every 2 months - sooner if the extractor
is used extensively and filters become grease laden.
•Whilst you can expect years of service from mesh grease
filters, they are considered a consumable item and may
deteriorate over time and need replacement, particularly
when cleaned in a dishwasher. For dishwasher users
adhering to a 2-monthly cleaning interval, we recommend
grease filter replacement every 5 years to maintain optimum
performance, even if they show no visible signs of
deterioration. For all users, filters should be replaced
whenever they exhibit signs of physical wear.
Removing the Grease Filters
The clip-in grease filters have an integrated sprung latch
mechanism. Release the latch by pulling the lever and remove
the filter.
Filters are replaced by locating the tabs opposite the lever into
corresponding slots in the extractor base and then pushing the
filter into position with the latch held open. Once the filter is in
position release the lever, allowing the latch to engage.
Lamp replacement
The long-life LED units are not designed for end user
replacement. In the unlikely event of failure please call Westin.
CAUTION.
To minimise the risk of fire, all instructions relating to
cleaning the grease filters and removing grease deposits
must be adhered to.

Radio Remote Controlled Models
•Switch on the power at the fused spur.
•Then Immediately turn on the remote control ( ).
•Then immediately press and hold ( ) until the lights illuminate.
Should the extractor fail to respond to commands from the remote-
control, please check that the power is ‘on’ and the internal
appliance reset switch is in the ‘ON’ position (factory default). The
reset switch is a latching red push-switch located in the chamber
behind the door panel / filter.
If you experience interference problems, or the remote appears to
be faulty from new, then a different radio transmission code may
be required.
Refer to the instruction leaflet included with the remote control
regarding transmission code changes before seeking assistance.
Refer to the instruction leaflet included with the radio remote control
console regarding pairing the device, transmission codes and
factory reset procedures.
Pushbutton Models
Other Control Systems
Because this is a custom-made product, an alternative control
system may have been specified during the design phase.
Most commonly this alternative control system will be a
continuously variable rotary fan speed controller plus light
control mounted on the extractor (usually the baseplate). With
most such control systems, you will find on/off switches for the
fan and lights and a rotating knob to adjust the fan speed.
Sometimes the switch and knob are combined into a single unit,
like a domestic lighting dimmer switch, which is pressed for
on/off function and turned for speed.
In some cases, the fan control may have been specified as a
separate item that does not form part of the extractor (e.g. a
wall mounted controller). Such controllers may have been
supplied by the manufacturer or a third party and are not
covered by this manual.
If you are unsure how to operate your unit then please call the
manufacturer for assistance.
The extractor controller will automatically switch off the
appliance if there has been no operator action for 4 hours.
