Hello! We have had to replace the range hood in the kitchen but I don’t know if hat type of range hood suits this space. Please help!

Re: range hood

Good Evening @brittanyy 

:smile: Welcome to the Bunnings community page. There are a lot of kitchen projects to stroll through  for sure :smile:

 

Some questions that will help us out in offering suggestions for the space you have.

- A photo further back so we can see the stype of the cabinets, no point in getting something that dosnt match-ish.

- The distance between either side of the cupboards (taking a guess Im thinking its 600mm)

- The height from the stove top to the vent.

- The power cord, that adds a little complexity as they shouldnt be in the exhaust. Do you know what type of exhgurst you had before (or a photo)

Re: range hood

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @brittanyy. It's terrific to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about ranghoods.

It's great to see that @Dave-1 is on the case.

 

The first thing we need to know is whether this will be a ducted or recirculating rangehood. It appears that there is an opening at the top of the cabinetry that might be for a duct. Do you happen to know whether the previous rangehood was ducted or if there is ducting to the exterior of your home in place? Once we know that, it's just a matter of selecting a unit that fits in the width and that suits your styling.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
