Integrated Recirculating Extraction
This Elica vented induction hob features a built-in filtering extraction system that captures grease, steam and cooking odours directly from the hob surface. The purified air is then recirculated into the room, removing the need for external ducting.
The flush-mounted extractor delivers booster airflow of up to 535m³/h, with a suction speed of 5.1m/s. Its operating noise ranges from 44 to 67dB(A), providing powerful extraction while helping to maintain a calmer kitchen environment.
A practical drainage valve collects accidental spills, helping to keep the cooking and extraction area clean and easy to maintain.
Four-Zone Induction Cooking
Four induction cooking zones provide responsive and precise heat control. The intuitive touch slider controls offer nine cooking power levels, allowing you to adjust each zone quickly and accurately.
The hob also features an intensive setting, while the extraction system provides 4+1 intensive speed settings for additional ventilation when needed.
Warming Mode gently maintains food at serving temperature, while Stop&Go lets you pause and resume cooking with a single touch.
Automatic Extraction Control
Elica’s Autocapture function automatically adjusts the extraction power according to the cooking activity on the hob. This helps balance effective air filtration with efficient energy use, allowing you to focus on preparing your food.
After cooking, the Delayed Power-Off function keeps the extractor running briefly to remove lingering humidity and odours before switching off automatically.
Flexible Power Management
With a listed total absorption of 7.2kW, the Prime S includes selectable 3.1kW and 4.5kW power limits to suit the available electrical supply.
The appliance has an A energy rating, combining efficient operation with reliable cooking and extraction performance.
Long Life Filter++ System
The Long Life Filter++ system uses high-efficiency, regenerable filters to capture grease and odours. Designed to last for up to five years, the filters help reduce replacement requirements and simplify ongoing maintenance.
The filters can be accessed conveniently from the top of the hob for cleaning, while a built-in alert indicates when regeneration is required.
Practical Safety Features
A Child Lock helps prevent accidental activation. The integrated timer includes automatic shut-off and audible alerts, supporting accurate cooking and added peace of mind.
Flush-Fit Black Glass Design
An adjustable mounting system supports precise installation and a clean, flush fit. Finished in black glass with a cast iron-style central grille, the Elica Prime S recirculating vented induction hob brings cooking, extraction and intuitive control together in one carefully engineered appliance.

Frequently Asked Questions About the NT-PRIME-S-RC
Is the Elica NT-PRIME-S-RC a recirculating vented induction hob?
Yes. The Elica NT-PRIME-S-RC is the recirculating version of the Prime S. Its integrated extractor captures grease, steam and cooking odours before returning the filtered air to the kitchen, so it does not require an external wall outlet. The cabinet and plinth must still be prepared for the recirculated airflow in accordance with the installation instructions.
How many cooking zones does the Elica Prime S have?
This model has four independent induction zones. The two rear zones measure 200mm and provide up to 3.0kW with boost, while the two front zones measure 160mm and provide up to 1.4kW.
Does the Elica NT-PRIME-S-RC have a bridge or flex zone?
No. The four cooking zones on the Elica NT-PRIME-S-RC operate independently and cannot be combined into a larger bridge zone. Buyers who require linked zones for griddle plates or oversized cookware should consider a model with a dedicated bridge function.
How powerful is the integrated extractor?
The recirculating extractor provides booster airflow of up to 535m³/h and a suction speed of 5.1m/s. It offers multiple extraction settings, including intensive modes for dealing with larger amounts of steam or stronger cooking odours.
Does the extractor adjust itself automatically?
Yes. Elica Autocapture technology can adjust the extraction level according to the cooking activity on the hob. The delayed switch-off function can also keep the extractor running after cooking to help remove remaining moisture and odours.
How noisy is the Elica Prime S recirculating hob?
The listed noise range for the recirculating Elica NT-PRIME-S-RC is approximately 49 to 69dB(A), depending on the selected extraction level. Lower settings are suited to everyday cooking, while the highest level is intended for short periods of intensive extraction.
What are the dimensions and worktop cut-out requirements?
The hob measures 83cm wide, 51.5cm deep and 25cm high. It requires a worktop cut-out of approximately 75 x 49cm. Installation space is also needed below the worktop for the extraction unit and recirculating airflow system.
Can the electrical power be limited?
Yes. Although the hob has a total connected load of 7.2kW, its power management function allows it to be limited to 3.1kW or 4.5kW. This can help match the appliance to the available electrical supply, but the connection and power setting should be completed by a qualified electrician.
What cooking controls and functions are included?
The Elica NT-PRIME-S-RC uses touch slider controls with nine cooking power levels and an intensive setting. It also includes a warming function, cooking timers, Stop&Go for pausing and restoring the current settings, residual heat indicators and a child lock.
How are the filters cleaned and maintained?
The grease and regenerable odour filters can be accessed from the top of the hob, making routine maintenance more convenient. The Long Life Filter++ system is designed to last for up to five years when cleaned and regenerated as instructed, and a filter alert indicates when maintenance is required.
What happens if liquid spills into the extractor?
The central extraction area is designed to provide access for internal cleaning and includes a drainage valve for accidental spills. This helps make it easier to remove collected liquid and maintain the extraction compartment.
What cookware can be used on this induction hob?
The Elica Prime S requires induction-compatible cookware with a magnetic base. Cast iron and suitable magnetic stainless-steel pans normally work well, while aluminium, copper and glass cookware will only work when fitted with an induction-compatible base.
Are there any suitable alternatives to the Elica NT-PRIME-S-RC Prime S 83cm Vented Induction Hob I could consider?
Yes, you could consider the Elica NT-PRM-PLS-S-RC Prime S Plus 83cm Vented Induction Hob in Black Glass as a close recirculating alternative with the same 83cm dimensions and 75 × 49cm cut-out, plus a bridge zone for larger cookware.
Alternatively, the Elica NT-SWITCH-BK-RC Switch RC 83cm Vented Induction Hob in Black is a more premium recirculating option with dual bridge zones, Airmatic extraction control, quieter operation and an A+ rating, although it requires a larger 80.7 × 49.2cm worktop cut-out.
