Ceiling flush kitchen extractor

[DanDare]

(Hope this is the right forum!)

Does anyone know a good manufacturer of extractor fans I can mount in the ceiling directly above my gas hob?

I don't want to use a normal 'hood' as it would take a lot of light from an adjacent window.

I know a company called 'Westin' make them - but they're very flash (and abominably expensive) - and also they're 'off the peg' models won't fit between the joists in the ceiling above, I got a quote to custom make one, but it was a bit scary)

What I actually want is simply one (or more) grilles in the ceiling, with ducts leading to an inline fan and then outside.

The problem, I imagine, is that the 'grille' fittings would need to incorporate grease filters.

(The reason I say one or more grilles would be to work around the joists above, while keeping a decent area being extracted)

Thanks all!

With in line you could mount the fan anywhere on route between intake point (kitchen ceiling) and where you intend to vent.

If the distance is short so there's not too much duct travel you could have a external wall unit fan and duct between intake and fan.

Or you can go fan at intake, duct, external grill.

Thing to remember is a kitchen does get oil vapours and you will need either a grease filter or service access to clean the fan and duct.
