Cooker Hoods
Ways of extraction
The cooker is an important part of your kitchen, as well as the cooker hood that complements it. This kitchen appliance is sometimes underestimated when purchasing a new kitchen or upgrading an existing one, but the cooker hood extracts or recirculates the air from the kitchen which is trapped - through standard central heating, double glazing and good insulation. Essentially then, many experts will agree that if an extractor can be used, it should be used.Cookers create odours and smoke, and with the extractor method these are removed to the outside so not to blemish the air within the house or kitchen. To run an extraction appliance is more economically friendly for the user than a recirculation appliance because the latter requires charcoal filters to work which have to be regularly replaced – there is an initial outlay for an extractor but there are no running costs. The absence of a charcoal filter also means the airflow rate is higher, and therefore goes without saying this is a direct disadvantage of the recirculation method of the cooker hood, as the positioning of a required charcoal filter is in front of the motor which lessens airflow.
When considering which type of cooker hood appliance to install in your kitchen, before all else you must consider what the logistics allow. With an extractor, everything that is being removed through the cooker hood needs to leave the kitchen through a passage to outdoors. Space within the kitchen will primarily dictate whether extraction is a viable option or not, but also if the appliance can reach what is considered an 'outside wall' through the form of ducting. If space allows an extraction appliance to be fitted then you can begin to make further considerations; if not, a recirculation appliance will become your next option as these offer much more viability as they can be installed almost everywhere. It should be noted here that some cooker hood ranges actually incorporate both formats discussed in this section and you will find that out within the manufacturers' product descriptions.
Features and price
Just like the saturation of styles of this and every other product in today's market, cooker hood appliances have digressed and offer a wide range of features or characteristics to make the whole experience more user-friendly. A good place to start would be the controls on a cooker hood appliance as the position of basic controls can vary in position. For ease of use, the appliances which have them positioned on the outside rather than perhaps the inside or underside – those which have them placed within the latter can sometimes be awkward to access. A majority of cooker hood appliances have varying speeds which you can set according to the amount of steam, smoke or odour being produced. At this point it is important to note that as well as charcoal filters, a cooker hood appliance also comes with a grease filter. Just like the speed control many appliances come with a warning light which tells you when this particular filter has become over saturated and needs to be washed.When it comes to washing the filters in the cooker hood, they will need to be washed regularly or the efficiency of extraction will be affected. They can be washed by putting them through the dishwasher, or disposable filters can be purchased and they will need replacing on a couple of months cycle. Cooker hood appliances mostly come with lighting built-in to help illuminate the cooking area. They come in three forms of lighting: halogen, fluorescent and incandescent and they will attempt to light up the cooking area sufficiently.
Owing to the fact these appliances can be bought from anywhere between £60 through to £2,000+, identifying your needs before you decide on which style appliance you want is very important. You must rule out which cooker hoods will not logistically work in your kitchen and which appliance will work - all due to the size and shape of your kitchen. Many cooker hoods could look similar to others you are considering, and maybe they are. But if there is any differentiation in price it is probably because for example, it has a different type of filter or it has two speed extraction system rather than a three speed.
Essentially then, the kitchen environment must be assessed first and foremost and then you can decide whether you will extract or recirculate your kitchen air. They are the two main considerations; after that, you are presented with an artistic license to choose your cooker hood appliance. The noise of a cooker hood appliance can be intrusive so it is something to consider, especially if your kitchen doubles as your dining room. This is even more relevant if you are considering extraction as these can make noise, especially if they are used on a higher speed. Within each range the prices can greatly vary, so it comes down the budget you have set yourself.
