Every home’s kitchen needs to have a range hood to remove cooking smoke, grease, fumes, steam, and odors. When buying a residential range hood one of the most important choices is do you want a ducted or non-ducted system. There are pros and cons to both. Non-ducted kitchen hoods are easier to install, and do not require any ductwork. They also give you the ability to install the range hood anywhere in the kitchen without having to worry about access to the ductwork. These units are also typically a bit cheaper than most modern ducted kitchen exhaust fans. However, these range hoods are not as powerful or as quiet as vented range hoods. Because they use filters that must be cleaned and replaced regularly, they require much more maintenance and do not last long as ducted ventilation fans. They are also not able to reduce humidity in the kitchen because air and steam are recirculated. For people that live in more humid climates, have gas ranges, cook frequently, want a quiet fan, less maintenance and do not want to have to worry about replacing their kitchen vent hood a top-rated stainless steel ducted cooktop exhaust fan is most likely your best option.

Benefits of Ducted Range Hoods:

Ducted range hoods use a fan to suck in air above the oven and stovetop capturing cooking fumes, smoke, steam, grease and odors. The captured air along with the smoke, fumes, steam, and odors is then expelled through ductwork to an opening on an exterior wall or roof of the house. This ensures the contaminated air is vented outside, preventing smells, smoke, grease particles and other pollutants from recirculating back into the kitchen. This makes vented range hoods much more effective and efficient at removing cooking odors, moisture and pollutants than non-vented canopy systems. If you have a gas stove and oven, a ducted stainless steel range hood is typically the best choice because they remove unburnt fumes much more effectively. Additionally, because the air is vented outside, the best ducted kitchen exhaust hoods are not only more efficient and effective at removing cooking smoke, fumes, grease, and odors they are also quieter than models that recirculate air.

The best ducted residential range hoods may cost a bit more than the other systems but will save you money in the long run. Top-rated vented kitchen cooktop hoods do use filters to capture grease and other particles before they are exhausted outside. However, because the pollutants are expelled entirely to the outside ducted range hood filters do not require nearly as much cleaning as non-ducted filters. The best ducted range hoods use stainless baffle filters that are very easy to clean and unlike a non-vented system they never need to be replaced. In addition, top-rated stainless steel vented kitchen hoods last up to 10 years longer than even the best, most powerful non-vented systems with way less maintenance. This will save you a lot of time and money in the long run. In summary if you care more about cost in the long run over upfront cost, do want to worry about replacing filters or having to frequently clean them and prioritize stronger ventilation, a quieter fan, and the ability to effectively remove cooking steam, fumes, smoke, grease and odors outside than a modern, stainless steel ducted kitchen hood is the best choice.

What to Look for When Buying a Ducted Kitchen Hood:

When buying a ducted residential range hood regardless of your budget there are a few things to consider. Most importantly is size. The kitchen ventilation hood or canopy should be at least as wide as your cooktop to effectively capture smoke, grease, smells, and fume emissions. You also want to measure the space the hood will be installed at to ensure it will fit. Additionally, you want to make sure the hood’s fan is powerful enough to provide the exhaust capacity (CFM) you need. CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) measures how quickly the vented range hood can remove air, so a higher CFM means faster ventilation. Larger kitchens and kitchens with high BTU stoves require a higher CFM. That said, in general you want at least 100 CFM per foot of your range's width, so if you have a 3ft wide cooktop you want a ducted range hood with 300 CFM or more. You’re also going to want the option to choose from multiple fan speeds. Lighting is also very important. Range hoods with modern LED lights provide sufficient long lasting, and energy efficient lighting that makes it easy for you or the chef of the house to see what’s cooking on the stovetop. Lastly, you want to buy a ducted range hood that compliments the kitchen’s aesthetics. Cooking exhaust hoods are one of the largest and most visible appliances in the kitchen, so make sure to buy one you like and suits your style and decor.
