Hi guys,
I am having a new kitchen fitted. I would like all the wall units to be the same size and height above the worktop and hob (so will need to have it 650mm to comply with regs above hob). I would like a built in cooker hood that is 'invisible' as possible and it needs to be recirculating.
My question is, how do they work?
On all the products I can find, it says they are suitable for extract and recirculation, and show a duct hole on top. Is it as simple for recirculation that we fit it to the underside of a standard cupboard, then have a small duct from the hood hole to the top of the cupboard, with a hole cut in?? If so, would this need a cover?
If it is of any consequence, the units are ikea.
Any help will be much appreciated.
ps. a second part to the question - if i reduced the 650mm height of cupboards to 600mm to match the tiles, would this be a big issue?
Thanks in advance.
