Hi Forum- This is my first post, so good to meet you all and thanks for your help here. I'm thinking about how to design a kitchen remodel, specifically what to do with over the range. The existing solution is something that as far as I can tell is not made anymore - a metal shelf with power...

Hi guys, I'm building a new kitchen in my existing home using a wall-mounted pyramid range hood. The plenum cover will extend to the ceiling. I've installed all required support blocking and am about to sheetrock the wall but first need to identify how the electrical cable (MC cable) will be...

I'm going to put a new roof on my house, with a ridge vent. My range hood currently vents straight to one of the roof vents... and those are all going away and being replaced with a ridge vent. So I need to determine where to install a new range hood roof vent. Ideally, the vent would come...

Hi everyone, I will be tackling a new project this weekend which is venting a wall mounted range hood. I know that each install is unique to the manufacturer but has anyone done this before? 1. Can you vent this through the wall into a garage at a 90 degree angle at the top or does it...

For any home, there is doubtlessly utilization of a copper range hood or any sort is hindering to the occupant's well-being. It doesn't' make any difference if it's a gas or electric range, regardless it produces poisons inside the home after some time when a hood vent is not used. Tragically...

Hi, I wanted to get a range hood that vents to outside and we do lot of international cooking with various spices. I'm trying to see what's the maximum CFM I can install without having to install a make-up air unit. Thanks :)

Hey everyone. I received some very helpful advice before from this site and hoping to be so lucky again... I'm in the process of remodeling the kitchen. My question is in regard to the new microwave/range hood we bought to go over the gas range. We moved the range hood to a new location in...

Dear all, I am installing a range hood and trying to vent it out (the old one pushes the air back into the room!) On the other side of the kitchen is the water heater that already has a vent going up the roof. Can I just connect the range hood pipe into the already-there pipe of the water...

We would like to replace our range hood which currently measures 6'' high (see picture). The range hood we would like to replace it with is 7'' high and I am wondering if it is possible to install it without changing any of the cabinetry. It appears as though there is a 1'' piece (of...

As a newlywed I have been trying to fix up a 1940's house for the last year and a half. The kitchen is an addition the previous owner put on in the early eighties and had a recirculating range hood. As we finally got married and have new kitchen wares flooding in I decided to take down the old...
