Number of motors

The number of motors provided in the hood.

For most modern models, one engine is enough — this is enough even for fairly high performance. Models with two motors are somewhat less common — usually, these are powerful performant hoods. One of the advantages of this design is that only one motor can be used at low speeds, and the second one can be connected only when maximum power is required. It has a positive effect on the minimum noise level (see above); on the other hand, the maximum noise level can be quite high, and such devices are usually more expensive than single-motor ones.

It is technically possible to use more than two motors. However, such models are single exceptions.

Perimeter suction

A suction system that draws air into the hood through a series of holes around the perimeter of the air intake. This design provides high suction efficiency and, at the same time, allows you to apply advanced design solutions to the device. However, due to the high cost, it is typical mainly for premium hoods.

Height (max)

The height of the entire hood structure is from the lower edge to the upper part of the body (the point of connection of the external air duct). For hoods with an adjustable design that allows you to change the height of the case, the maximum height is the size of the device in the unfolded state; in the case of non-adjustable hoods, this means a correspondingly constant overall height. When choosing a hood in height, it is worth proceeding from two points:

1. The optimal height of the air intake above the hob is 60-80 cm. This height allows the hood to capture kitchen fumes effectively and, at the same time, gives enough space to work with the hob.

2. Between the hood body and the ceiling, a clearance is required for connecting an external air duct.
