Get in the swing of things

How many times have you bumped your head on the rangehood as you've leaned forward to access the rear elements on your cooktop?

With its swinging arm mechanism, the Parmco Swinger can be partially or totally swung out of the way to give you unrestricted access while cooking.

It can also be moved directly over the source of cooking fumes for more focused extraction.

Managing director of Parmco Sales, Roger Battersby, says the SwingHood was designed to allow freedom of use that conventional rangehoods cannot match.

The unit can be mounted almost anywhere on the wall behind or either side of a cooktop, or even beside windows, leaving panoramic views unspoiled.

It can also be integrated with kitchen cabinetry to save space, with the chimney fully concealed.

Parmco has recently made some design improvements to the SwingHood.

The new model SwingHood has a minimalist look, with clean, straight lines and a squared-off design.

The controls are now located on the end of the swinging arm for ease of operation and twin halogen lights are positioned on the rear of the arm for unobstructed lighting.

The Parmco Swinger's powerful, yet quiet motor extracts up to 1060 cubic metres per hour and is suitable for 300mm, 600mm and 900mm hobs.

Complementing the Parmco Swinger are the Parmco series 3 oven and the Parmco 3 gas and wok cooktop.

The Parmco multifunction oven can be installed under-bench or in-wall, with no additional venting required.

It has self-cleaning catalytic side and back panels, a cool-touch triple glass door and a built-in cooling system to protect kitchen cabinetry.

The cooktop features removable pan supports and burners and is suitable for natural or LPG gas.

All Parmco-branded ventilation and cookware appliances are covered by a five-year warranty.

Parmco has a comprehensive kitchen ventilation range with 51 models of canopies, rangehoods, downdrafts and in-wall ventilation available.

The company also specialises in a wide range of kitchen appliances, including ovens, cooktops, dishwashers, waste disposers, sinks, taps, ducting and bins.
