Island hood required with 1000 extraction rate?

chris1012

We are looking for an island hood with am extraction rate of a minimum of 1000 m3 and less than 63db noise levels.

We want to spend as least as possible but do not want to compromise on a good quality product.

Any suggestions?

are you sure you need 1000m3/hr ? how big is your kitchen

chris1012

The kitchen is open plan inc a dining and living section.

The measurements are 8.4m * 8m.
Celing height is 2.3m

If you can put the extraction motor in the loft or on the outside wall, you wouldn't care as much about the noise levels...
Just something to think about.

What are my options in terms of make and model?

Thanks

You haven't specified your upper limit cost-wise. Without that your options are almost limitless...

Around 1k. Cheaper the better of course

You need more than just 1000m3/hr extraction rate - more like 1500-1200-1500 m3/hr. With a 2.3m ceiling, I wouldn't recommend a ceiling hung hood so a ceiling recessed unit would be idea but I cant think of anything that would come in under or around £1000.

If budget permits, Westin do one with a 1600m3/hr motor but you are looking at a price nearer £1900. Its a superb product though.

I agree with ryder72 above, you need something with an extraction rate of 1500 m³/hr or above.

Have you looked at the Elica range of island cooker hoods:

Well, since other higher cost ones were mentioned, thought it'd be useful for the OP to have more options!

Some of the Elica ones can be bought for around £1500.
