The kitchen hood should remove all odors from the kitchen into the ventilation, and the better it copes with this task, the less often you will have to make repairs.
As you know, odors tend to be absorbed into finishing materials and other interior items. Some can be washed off, but some cannot be washed off.
Therefore, the operation of the kitchen hood must be impeccable.
We will tell you what mistakes are made when planning the placement of this household appliance.
The best option is a classic hood that discharges air into the ventilation shaft, rather than a recirculation hood with a filter.
First mistake
If a classic exhaust hood does not work well, then you need to evaluate the geometry of the route. The more transitions and turns, the further it is from the shaft itself, the less power the device has.
Second mistake
Before installing the hood, you need to study the manufacturer's recommendations. For gas and electric cooktops, these parameters may differ.
Mistake three
It consists of installing a check valve. If it is installed incorrectly, the hood will be useless at all. In this case, the problem of unpleasant odors penetrating the apartment through the ventilation will remain unsolved.
