By Ian Kelly, eHow Contributor Since cooktops and ovens generate heat, steam and cooking odors, a correctly sized range hood is an essential requirement for maintaining kitchen air quality. Although the Home Ventilating Institute calls for 15 air changes per hour (ACH), there are three factors to consider when sizing your gas range hood: kitchen air volume; the Btu (British thermal units) output of your range and the range location; and...

Kitchen ventilation presents the problems of grease, smoke and odours not usually found in other ventilation systems. Restaurant kitchens often use large extractor hoods Equipment used in kitchen ventilation uses an extractor hood or canopy and an filtering system.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia An exhaust hood, extractor hood, or range hood is a device containing a mechanical fan that hangs above the stove orcooktop in the kitchen. It removes airborne grease, combustion products, fumes, smoke, odors, heat, and steam from the air by evacuation of the air and filtration.[1] In commercial kitchens exhaust hoods are often used in combination with fire suppression devices so that fumes from a grease fire are properly vented and the fire is put...
Before buying Make sure the range hood fits with the ventilation duct: Check the type of duct: round or rectangular, vertical(at the top) or horizontal (at the back). Measure the duct size. Don’t try to fit a powerful range hood to too small a duct.This will result in poor performance and unwanted vibrations. Installation Remove the protective adhesive strip from the flap damperand make sure the flap is working properly....
Ductless range hoods are one of three different types of range hoods, along with ducted, or vented, range hoods and convertible range hoods. Vented range hoods require access to outside from the area in the kitchen where the stove is located. Convertible range hoods can be used with either ductless or ducted systems. Versions that are ductless are usually the second choice in range hoods. When it is possible to install a...
Range hood styles, venting and installation options Range hoods are no longer merely utilitarian. Today, some luxury range hoods resemble abstract sculptures and are stylish enough to serve as the centerpiece of a kitchen. Designer and custom-built range hoods can cost more than $2,000, but plenty of stylish models are available for as little as $400 to $500. If your biggest concern is performance rather than appearance, you may be...
I am trying to clean the aluminum mesh filters in my range hood vents. I have tried various detergents alone and in combinations, with and without ammonia. I have also tried different solvents with little or no success. The grease is quite concentrated and thick. Soaking doesn't even seem to do the job. I am sure this type of cleaning is being done commercially so there must be a way....
Standard base cabinets are 34-1/2" high plus 1-1/2" for the counter top for a total of 36", which is also the height of a range. Standard upper cabinets are 30" high and are installed 18" above the base cabinets. Most cabinetmakers create a 6" high recess over the range by installing a 24" high cabinet over the range. Most standard hoods are 6" high. Therefore, if you do the math,...
Edited by Carolyn Barratt, Jmuddy95 A range hood is a very useful tool for minimizing smoke, steam, and odors produced when cooking. The hood is mounted above your cooktop, and has a fan that pulls air through ductwork and outside your home; non-ducted versions recirculate the air through a charcoal filter. While range hoods are usually not required at all by local building codes, cooking without one can lead to...
BY: ANNA HOLBROOK Clearing the Kitchen Air It's not surprising that most kitchens are equipped with a range hood. What is remarkable, however, is that most of these hoods do a lousy job of eliminating steam, smoke, grease and odors. That's because they simply recirculate the air by drawing it through a filter and blowing it back into the room. For a range hood to perform well, it must...
VISIBLE QUALITY THAT CANNOT BE COMPARED Please do not compare our range hoods with those cheap on-line selling range hoods. Those range hoods were all produced from the same manufacture in Guangdong, then put on a different brand name. That is why they all have very similar or same range hoods. Please compare us with Kobe, Vent-A-Hood or those high quality range hoods because our hoods got the same...
