Top Chimney & Range Hoods Testing Lab in Delhi NCR: IS 302-2-31 Experts
As kitchen ventilation becomes a core standard in modern Indian homes, ensuring the safety and efficiency of exhaust systems is no longer optional. Accurate Test Solutions is the leading NABL accredited lab for kitchen chimneys and a BIS recognized lab for range hoods, providing specialized IS 302-2-31 testing services across Delhi, Noida, and Gurgaon.
From verifying suction capacity testing for chimneys to conducting rigorous fire hazard safety testing, we empower manufacturers to achieve the ISI mark certification necessary for market leadership.
Why Kitchen Hood Performance Testing is Mandatory
Under the Electrical Appliances for Kitchen (Quality Control) Order, the Ministry of Commerce has mandated that all domestic electric cooking hoods comply with IS 302-2-31. This ensures that every kitchen ventilation system is safe from electrical failure and optimized for performance.
Our Core Testing Capabilities
Our kitchen hood performance testing laboratory evaluates products against several critical parameters:
Suction Capacity Testing: Accurate air flow rate measurement (m³/hr) to ensure smoke and odor removal.
Static Pressure Testing: Evaluating how well the chimney performs against pipe resistance.
Noise Level Testing (dB): Ensuring the appliance operates within comfortable acoustic limits for home environments.
Grease Absorption Efficiency: Analyzing baffle filter efficiency to prevent long-term residue buildup.
Regional Testing Centers: “Near Me” Convenience

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What are the testing charges for IS 302-2-31 compliance in India?
The testing charges for IS 302-2-31 compliance vary based on the model complexity (e.g., auto-clean vs. manual). At Accurate Test Solutions, we provide a transparent fee structure covering all mandatory safety and performance parameters.
2. How do I get an ISI mark for my kitchen chimney?
To get an ISI mark, you must:
Identify the relevant standard (IS 302-2-31).
Get your product tested at a BIS recognized lab like Accurate Test Solutions.
Submit the test reports and factory documents via the BIS Manak Online portal for audit.
3. What is the standard suction capacity for a domestic kitchen chimney?
While it depends on the kitchen size, a kitchen chimney suction capacity is typically measured in m³/hr. We provide precise air flow rate measurements to verify if your product meets its advertised specifications.
4. Is noise level testing mandatory for range hoods?
Yes, under performance evaluation, noise level testing (dB) is conducted to ensure the chimney does not exceed safety and comfort thresholds during high-speed operation.
5. Does your lab test built-in kitchen appliances besides chimneys?
Absolutely. As a full-scale home appliance testing lab, we offer certification for built-in kitchen appliances, hobs, and electric ovens, ensuring they meet the specific range hood safety compliance in India.
