Range Hoods

About Range Hoods

There are many advantages to installing a range hood over your kitchen stove. While it may seem obvious that range hood filters help ventilate kitchens by vacuuming in the steam, smoke and other cooking emissions and absorbing the odors, they also work to collect cooking grease that can otherwise go airborne and spread throughout the room.

Range hoods with duct work installed to expel the fumes outdoors take a bit longer to put in, but ductless range hoods are available as well. Ductless units use filters, also called range hood inserts, to clean the air and circulate it back into the kitchen.

Installing a range hood can keep your kitchen from absorbing permanent, often stale-smelling cooking aromas over time. For more information or advice on range hood installation, visit your local Ace.
