Types of rangehoods
Depending on your kitchen space and layout, there are different types of rangehoods to choose from, each one with its own features. Your local rangehood installer will be able to advise you on what’s the best design to suit your kitchen. There are 3 types of rangehoods:
- Retractable – retractable hoods are activated by pulling out the hood, which activates the light and fan.
- Fixed – these are much more efficient in extraction power. They are not adjustable in any way.
- Canopy hoods – these are based on commercial kitchen designs and are a freestanding style.
Extraction – How much extraction power is enough?
Do All Range Hoods Need to be Vented Outside?
