It is undeniable that as one of the must-have appliances in the home, the importance of the range hood to the kitchen is self-evident, but now the range hoods on the market have top suction, side suction, top side double suction, bottom side double suction, etc., which one to buy, I believe many people are very entangled.
Today, I will give you an inventory of 5 types of range hoods, summarize their advantages and disadvantages, you can take a few minutes to take a look, understand and count half an insider, and you will step on the pit less when buying.
Top range hood:
Top suction is to suck oil smoke in a large area directly above, so its smoke range will be wider, which is very suitable for moving the spoon, and kitchen lovers who like to fry and stir-fry, so we can see that many restaurants have a top suction kitchen. On the other hand, the noise of the top suction range hood is relatively small and relatively affordable.
But its disadvantage is that the oil smoke is over the face, and it is easy to choke on fried chili peppers, some irritate the skin and respiratory tract, and it needs to be cleaned frequently and the oil tank needs to be changed frequently, otherwise it is easy to drip oil and often meet.
Side range hood:
The smoking port of the side suction is generally about 45 cm away from the kitchen countertop, which is lower than the top suction, and its smoke collection effect is relatively better, so the oil smoke will not pass the face when used. In addition, the side-draft range hood also has a large tilt angle, so it will not drip oil and will not bump heads.
The disadvantage is that the noise will be louder than the top suction, because the sloping side will also look bulky, resulting in a great reduction in its aesthetics. Although some of the main ultra-thin side suction on the market has improved its appearance, it also has a hygienic dead end that collects oil, and it is a careful choice for cleaning.
Top side double range hood:
The top-side double-suction range hood is a relatively new type of range hood, which combines the dual advantages of top suction and side suction range hood to maximize the cleanness of the oil smoke. It mainly uses the side fan in the middle and low position to extract the fume, and also uses the top suction at high altitude to further remove the excess fume, and the efficiency of removing the fume is higher.
However, at present, there are still very few brands of top side double range hoods on the market, which leads to a relatively narrow range of choices. In addition, the price of the top side double suction range hood is relatively high, like some big brands of range hoods may be thousands of yuan larger, some are tens of thousands of yuan, and some even exceed 10,000 yuan.
Integrated cooktop:
Although the integrated stove is not a range hood, it has also become very popular in recent years, and many people will also choose to install an integrated stove to remove the oil smoke, so we will also talk about its advantages and disadvantages.
The integrated stove is a close side inhalation of oil smoke, but the face is of course good for the skin and body, for the daily we have to fry and cook are good, the disadvantage is the big action of frying and stir-frying, its smoke effect is still weak.
Many people say that the integrated stove is expensive, and the more expensive the household appliances, the better the quality, but the expensive integrated stove is expensive in its complete set of purchases, in which the cost of the smoke machine is not expensive. And since the integrated stove is an all-in-one type, it is relatively cumbersome to clean and repair.
In addition, although the integrated stove does save the space of the wall cabinet, its body and smoke pipe occupy the lower cabinet space with a high utilization rate, and it is actually more suitable for families with large windows in the kitchen and no range hood hanging on it.
Ultra-slim low range hood:
The ultra-thin low range hood is also a kind of range hood that many people will buy, similar to the low-suction effect of the integrated stove, but the face, the whole fuselage is attached to the wall.
Its disadvantage is that the higher large steamer can not be placed, and because the principle of smoke absorption is similar to that of the integrated stove, its smoke control range is limited, and then there is the price.
Summary: The above are the advantages and disadvantages of 5 different types of range hoods, you can find that there is no perfect range hood on the market, when we enjoy a certain convenience, we also have to bear the risk of another place, you can see which kind of range hood advantages are your favorite, the disadvantages are acceptable, and then choose the right range hood according to the budget.
