In modern family life, the problem of kitchen fumes has been plaguing many consumers.
In order to solve this problem, household range hoods came into being.
At present, there are two main types of mainstream household range hoods on the market: side suction and top suction, so which one is the real kitchen guardian? This article will give you a detailed analysis from multiple perspectives.
First, the structure and working principle
1. Top suction range hood
The top-suction range hood is installed above the cooktop, and the built-in fan generates a strong suction power to draw the rising oil smoke into the inside of the range hood, and after filtration and purification, it is discharged outside.
The top-suction range hood has the advantages of diverse shapes and easy cleaning.
2. Side-draft range hood
The side-draft range hood is mounted on the side of the cooktop to capture oil smoke at close range.
It changes the design of the traditional hood machine and the way of extracting the fume, and sucks the generated fumes from the side.
The side-draft range hood has the advantages of ideal smoke exhaust effect, no sense of depression, and thorough smoke absorption.
Second, the comparison of the effect of extraction fume
1. Top suction range hood
The top-suction range hood is slightly inferior to the side-suction type in terms of the smoke extraction effect.
Because the oil smoke is easy to diffuse during the ascent process, it may lead to part of the oil smoke cannot be inhaled into the range hood.
However, if you have a large space in the kitchen and the cooking habits are relatively light, the top suction range hood can still meet the demand.
2. Side-draft range hood
The side-draft range hood can suck away the fumes faster because it is closer to the cooktop, and has a fume separator, which can easily solve the problem of difficult removal of fumes in Chinese cooking.
In terms of the smoke extraction effect, the side-draft range hood has more advantages.
3. Comparison of advantages and disadvantages
1. Top suction range hood
Advantages: Diverse shapes, easy to clean.
Disadvantages: easy to bump heads and drip oil when stir-frying; The smoke pumping effect is relatively poor.
2. Side-draft range hood
Advantages: ideal smoke exhaust effect, no sense of depression, thorough smoke absorption.
Disadvantages: fewer styles, more troublesome cleaning, and more noise.
Fourth, purchase suggestions
1. If you have a large kitchen space and light cooking habits, you can consider choosing a top-suction range hood.
2. If your kitchen space is small and your cooking habits are mainly stir-frying, it is recommended to choose a side-draft range hood.
Side-draft and top-draft range hoods have their own advantages and disadvantages, and consumers should choose according to their own needs and the actual situation of the kitchen when purchasing.
As long as you choose the right range hood for you, whether it is side suction or top suction, you can become the guardian of the kitchen.
