How to choose the right rangehood

Start with your cooktop width and ducting situation, since these narrow the field before style enters the decision. A rangehood should be at least as wide as the cooktop below it, ideally a little wider, to capture steam and fumes from the front burners as well as the back. If you can run ducting to an external wall or roof, a ducted model gives noticeably better odour and moisture removal than a recirculating one, which is worth prioritising in kitchens where external ducting is feasible.

Match extraction rate to your kitchen's size and cooking style rather than picking the highest number available; a larger open-plan kitchen with a gas cooktop or regular wok use benefits from a higher-rated canopy model, while a compact kitchen with lighter cooking is well served by a smaller telescopic unit. Style is largely a design choice at that point: telescopic hoods disappear into overhead cabinetry when not in use, while canopy and curved glass hoods are a visible design feature that should suit your overall kitchen finish.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between ducted and recirculating rangehoods?
A ducted rangehood extracts air, steam and cooking odours outside via ducting through the wall or roof, giving the most effective removal of moisture and smells. A recirculating rangehood filters the air and returns it to the kitchen, which is easier to install where external ducting isn't possible but is less effective at removing odour and humidity.
What extraction rate (m³/hr) do I need?
Match extraction capacity to your kitchen's volume and cooking style. Larger kitchens, higher ceilings and frequent wok cooking or gas cooktops benefit from a higher-rated rangehood, often 900m³/hr or more on canopy models. A smaller telescopic model at 400-600m³/hr can suit a compact kitchen with lighter cooking.
Should my rangehood be the same width as my cooktop?
Rangehoods perform best when they're at least the same width as the cooktop below them, and ideally slightly wider, since this gives more effective capture of steam and cooking fumes from all burners, including the front row.
What's the difference between a telescopic and canopy rangehood?
A telescopic rangehood slides into an overhead cabinet and pulls out only when needed, keeping it hidden the rest of the time. A canopy rangehood is a fixed, visible unit that sits permanently below the cabinetry or ceiling as a design feature in its own right.
Do rangehoods need regular cleaning or maintenance?
Yes. Baffle or mesh filters should be cleaned regularly, generally every few weeks with typical home cooking, to keep extraction effective and reduce grease buildup. Ducted systems also benefit from an occasional check of the external vent.
