Santander to cut rate on popular 5.2% easy-access savings account on 20 May – should you switch now?.To avoid the hassle, I guess in my situation an extractor fan is better (also, as it will be fitted above the cooker, I guess it will make it more efficient?)ĭampdaveski, do you think that given the context I should still go for a ducted hood? If I go for a fan, what is better: a centrifugal fan with timer or humidistat control ? (Is this technically possible?) Or I can also have an other hole but when you are outside, two square holes next to each other will look weird. However, if we fit a ducted hood, the hole won't be perfectly aligned with the hood pipe, therefore the hood pipe needs to be diverted to the right by 20 or 30 cm. On this wall, there is already an old extractor hole that has been blocked (you can see it outside but not inside), it's located above the cooker, which is handy.

My kitchen is quite small and the cooker is against an external wall. Hello I am opening this conversation again as since I last posted my question, I haven't had the work done but now it cannot wait anymore (doors starting to swell because of condensation!)įrom all your answers, I now understand that I can fit either a ducted hood or extractor fan but both are not necessary.īut I'd like to give more information about my kitchen because I was not clear enough last time and I have a couple more questions in order to make the right decision. These fans are more expensive and are a bit bulkier, but like everything in life you get what you pay forĪs you have the choice I would go for the externally vented cooker hood and if you have the option for a more powerful one and it is in budget, get it! Stick one of these in the ceiling with trunking to the outside and most of the time they will just make noise and extract buggar all, this is because the trunking restricts the air flow.įans that work all the time are usually centrifugal fans (this has a drum that is a bit like a paddle steamer wheel) these fans shift a lot more air for a lot less energy consumption AND can overcome resistance if there is a lot of trunking These cheap fans are ok for a downstairs toilet but are generally just crap. Most extractor fans that people fit are axial fans (ie it has blades like a propeller) and if you're lucky they will have an overrun that you can adjust otherwise they are just on/off fans.

For the kitchen it is indeed one or the other.
