A kitchen hood is an indispensable device and it is difficult to imagine a kitchen without this device. The hood will clear the air from burning products during cooking, remove smoke and protect walls and ceilings from soot. But what model to choose and how devices differ from each other, not everyone knows. Let's see which hood is better - built-in or suspended.
Suspended model
Such a device is installed above the stove or mounted under a hanging cabinet. Such hoods are also called "classic" because they are considered the most simple and popular.
Embedded Model
As the name implies, such a device is built into the kitchen cabinet. It is compact, practical and easy to use.
| Options | Suspended | Embedded |
|---|---|---|
| Operation mode | Recirculation mode
Mode of withdrawal (less) |
Recirculation mode
Withdrawal mode |
| Number of motors | One (most models) | Two (most models) |
| Filters | Grease filter
Carbon filter (disposable, requiring replacement) |
Multi-layer grease filter (metal and washable) |
| Additional features | The ability to install a corrugated hose that improves the quality of air cleaning | Equipped with a sliding panel, which increases the working area of the device
Turns the device on and off by “pushing” and “pushing” the drawer |
As you can see, the suspension model is really simple - this hood will be inexpensive, but its performance is lower. In addition, the model is equipped with a carbon filter, which needs to be changed every couple of months.
The built-in model does not require you to incur additional costs for changing filters, and for the set having two motors will be able to please with performance and high-quality cleaning. The suspended hood can also increase its power and performance with an additional hose, but this, again, requires a lot of effort and effort.
Also, the suspension device will not be able to increase its working area, but the built-in hood is equipped with a sliding panel that can "catch" the air over the entire surface of the plate. Choosing the optimal model for your kitchen, choose the one that can satisfy your needs.
Embedded will look inconspicuously in the kitchen, will appreciate the power and quality of cleaning. Suspended suitable for those who cook small amounts of food and does not make high demands on performance and high power.
