Novy is the secret ingredient for your kitchen. The silent power of our experience is incorporated in everything we make. Our cooker hoods and hobs excel in silence and design minimalism, created to bring peace to the heart of the kitchen. Powerful too, built with an eye for precision and perfection. And designed so that you can comfortably cook, thanks to smart technology that allows your kitchen appliances to communicate. The Novy app is an example of this connectivity. The app allows changing the extraction speed to every level you want. Light color and brightness can be adjusted and saved. The extraction tower can be set at every height and a preset can be defined. You are notified when grease filters need to be cleaned or recirculation filters need to be replaced. You have easy access to user manual, installation manual and frequently asked questions. And if a new software is available, you can easily update your device via the app. In summary, the Novy app brings your cooking experience to a new level.
