Consider Important Features

Vent hoods come with many features, most of which are designed to assist with ventilation and lighting. The cubic feet per minute (CFM) rating of the hood's blower is a measure of the velocity at which air flows out of the kitchen. The higher the CFM rating, the faster air is ventilated; however, with fans running at higher speeds, there is a noise factor to consider. Many individuals want to find a blower that is functional but also quiet.

Other features to consider include:

  • Finish: Range hoods come in a variety of finishes and colors, and most people want to match the color of their existing range or cooktop.
  • Lights: Many range hoods come with LED or halogen lights that help improve visibility while cooking. Depending on the model, these lights can have adjustable settings that vary between bright and dim.

Cost Factors

There are many factors that ultimately determine the project cost. Homeowners that are replacing an existing vent hood with a similar unit should find relatively inexpensive prices. Adding a new vent hood or upgrading the type of unit could involve electrical and duct work in addition to the basic installation.

Hiring a Professional

Installing a new vent hood isn't a simple task and could require extensive electrical and HVAC skills. Working with a contractor ensures that the installation is in line with the manufacturer's recommendations and is secure and up to code.
