Installation recommendations
– When deciding on the safety distance
between the hob and cooker hood,
please note that a distance of
650mm above electric cookers/hobs
may be preferable to give more work-
ing space under the hood.
– Account should also be taken of the
height of the person who will be us-
ing the hood most often. They should
have sufficient space to work com-
fortably at the hob, and be able to
reach the cooker hood controls with
ease.
– Please be aware that if positioned too
high, extraction will be inefficient.
– To achieve optimum vapour extrac-
tion, the cooker hood must be
centred over the hob, not to the side
or behind it.
– The hob should be no wider than the
cooker hood, and if possible, it
should be narrower.
– The installation area must be easily
accessible. The cooker hood should
be easily accessible and easy to dis-
mantle in the event that service is re-
quired. This should be taken into
consideration when planning the pos-
ition of cupboards, shelves, ceilings
or features in the vicinity of the
cooker hood.
