IEX170 specifications

The Broan IEX170 range hood is a testament to modern kitchen ventilation technology, designed to seamlessly blend performance with aesthetics. This unit is perfect for those who value both style and efficiency in their cooking environment.

One of the standout features of the Broan IEX170 is its powerful 600 CFM blower.

Another significant characteristic of the IEX170 is its dishwasher-safe stainless steel filters. These filters are effective at trapping grease and can be easily cleaned, ensuring that the range hood maintains its performance over time. The easy maintenance is a notable feature for users who desire convenience without compromising on cleanliness.

The Broan IEX170 is also designed with an optional make-up air kit. This is particularly beneficial for high-capacity ventilation systems, as it helps balance air pressure in the kitchen, promoting a comfortable cooking environment.

In summary, the Broan IEX170 range hood stands out with its combination of high-performance CFM, quiet operation, LED lighting, sleek design, user-friendly controls, and easy maintenance features.
