Product Information
Full details
This SPARES2GO Vent Hose is designed for users of Diplomat and Hygena cooker hoods and extractors needing a replacement or extended ducting. Its key benefit is providing a flexible, insulated, and durable ventilation solution that can improve air quality and reduce noise. A caveat is its specific 125mm (5") connection size, which must match your appliance. The product features a 6-meter length, PVC foil insulation, and a steel wire coil for shape retention.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What is the exact diameter of the hose connection?
The hose features a 125mm (5") connection diameter.
What is the maximum length of the hose?
The hose has an operational length of 6 meters.
Is this hose suitable for high heat environments?
The hose is insulated with aluminum foil to reduce heat generation, but it is primarily designed for standard kitchen exhaust. It is not intended for extremely high-temperature applications.
How do I clean the vent hose?
Wipe the exterior of the hose with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the interior is clear of obstructions.
Will this hose fit any cooker hood brand?
It is designed to fit most cooker hoods and extractor brands with a standard 125mm (5") hose outlet, including Diplomat and Hygena models. Always check your appliance's specifications.
Can I cut the hose to a shorter length?
Yes, the hose can be cut to a shorter length if required, but ensure the cut edge is smooth and can be securely connected.
What is the purpose of the steel wire coil?
The steel wire coil provides rigidity to the hose, helping it to retain its shape and preventing it from collapsing or kinking, which ensures consistent airflow.
Troubleshooting
Hose is not fitting the appliance outlet.
Verify that your appliance has a 125mm (5") outlet. This hose is specifically designed for this size and may not fit other dimensions.
Reduced airflow from the cooker hood.
Check the entire length of the vent hose for kinks, sharp bends, or blockages. Ensure connections are secure and not obstructed. Clean any debris from the appliance's internal fan area.
Excessive noise from the vent system.
Ensure the hose is securely attached at both ends to minimize vibration. Check if the insulation lining is intact. Very sharp bends or internal debris can also contribute to noise.
Hose seems too short for the desired route.
Carefully extend the hose to its maximum 6m length. If further extension is needed, consider purchasing an additional compatible hose and connecting them securely, though this may impact airflow efficiency.
