When choosing a hood extractor for your kitchen, consider the following factors:
Size: Ensure the hood extractor is appropriate for your kitchen and stove. A hood extractor that is too small won't effectively remove smoke, odors, and heat.
Ventilation type: Decide whether you want a ducted or ductless hood extractor. Ducted hood extractors require ventilation outside, while ductless ones filter and clean the air using charcoal filters.
Airflow rate: Look for a hood extractor with a high airflow rate, typically measured in cubic meters per hour (m³/h). A higher airflow rate means more efficient removal of smoke and cooking odors.
Noise level: Consider the hood extractor's decibel (dB) level, as a higher noise level can be disruptive in the kitchen.
Style: Choose a hood extractor that matches the style of your kitchen and personal preferences.
Price: Hood extractors can range in price from budget-friendly options to high-end models. Determine your budget and find a hood extractor that meets your needs within your price range.
CFM stands for Cubic Feet per Minute and measures the cubic feet per minute of air a fan can draw. The higher the CFM, the more influential the air suction. So a 1000 CFM fan will draw more air than a 400 CFM.
