Ductless Chimney Range hood

16 years ago

We have a cottage, where the range is against a inner wall, on the main floor of a two story cottage. There is plumbing between the joist where the duct work would need to go, for a range hood. There is no cabinet on the range side of the galley kitchen, so a chimney style hood would make sense.

How effective would a ductless/recirculating chimney style hood be? Any recommendations. We are tying to keep the budget low($400 or less)

Far less effective than one that is vented, for sure. However, there are a number of hoods that can be set up to be recirculating--what style do you want? Stainless, stainless+glass, wood?

I bought a Windster Hood for a rental house that was very reasonable and well built. It had a ductless option. Got it from Venting Direct.

The kitchen has white appliances, so all stainless is probably easiest to match the rest of the kitchen. Stainless/glass would be much harder to keep clean.

I have a proline range hood that converts to ductless with neat round charcoal filters. The lights are nice and so was the price. I don't know if it's loud or not...I have nothing to compare it to
