Verdict

The RIBIMEX Cenehot PRO (Model PRCEN005) is a heavy-duty ash vacuum cleaner engineered to safely clear both cold and hot ashes up to 40°C from fireplaces, ovens, and pellet stoves. Powered by a robust 1200W, 230V motor delivering 17 kPa (170 mbar) of suction power, it features an extensive 25-liter lacquered metal canister and dual-functionality with an integrated blowing port. Its advanced filtration system incorporates an interchangeable, washable HEPA filter protected by a double steel mesh grid alongside a fireproof, antistatic, self-extinguishing pre-filter to prevent premature clogging. Key performance advantages include its versatile hot-ash compatibility, high-capacity storage, a generous accessory package (comprising a 1.8m flexible metal hose, a 20cm metal lance, and a burnished steel flat nozzle), and a highly mobile 4-castor trolley cart. However, a notable disadvantage is the lack of an integrated pneumatic or mechanical filter shaker mechanism, meaning the canister must be opened manually to shake or clean dust buildup off the filter unit when suction drops.
