That's a lot of chimney and very little hood! The hood need to be taller. It just looks way too short as drawn,

I bought a hood from Modern-aire last year and I'm very happy with it. They can customize style, dimensions and materials.

Check installation specs for range to determine minimum hood height over range (guessing its more).

IMO first you find the specs for the CFM needed then you pick a hood I like vent-a-hood and almost aleways use them for clients I agree drawers not pullouts for lower cabinets. Why do you need a 48” hood you don’t have a 48” range if installed properly at the right height I do not think you need 6” on either side of the range foe the hood to function and 48” hoods are often noisier than ones a bit smaller too.I have a 36” all gas range with a wok burner and I have a 36” vent a hood with 1200 CFM it works perfectly even with all the burners going but it is 30” above my range.

Patricia,

The Savigny is 44" wide, so a 48" hood is perfect and typically easy to find as it is a standard size for many North American manufacturers.

Lori, as mentioned above, Modern-Aire is a good option as they have many different styles to choose from and can match some of our Lacanche colors from their standard palette of colors. Depending on the exact configuration of your Savigny (and your specific venting conditions), a ~750-900 CFM blower should work well.

Congratulations on your new Lacanche!

Patrick

A four foot by 2 foot hood entry aperture should have a flow rate of 8 x 90 = 720 CFM. This will require a blower with a higher rated zero-static-pressure flow rate, likely around 1000 CFM. A commensurate make-up air system will also be required, possibly heat conditioned for cold climes, and air conditioned for hot climes.

Review of the many hood and MUA threads here is advised, or support from an informed HVAC contractor.

I agree and I have never used that particular brand of range so I stand corrected about the size of hood but you will need all of the above mentioned from kaseki.

ModernAire makes all their hoods to order. So, you can pick any size you want. Without upper cabinets to act as shrouds, you do have to make the hood wider than the range, if you want any chance of capturing the expanding plume of fumes.

You should make a cardboard mock-up of your hood and hold it in place. I suspect you have mounted it way too low and won't be able to even see the pots while cooking (unless you only plan on having your young kids cook in your kitchen).

We actually went the other way and mounted our hood just above head height. I love it. It works really well, but doesn't get into the way.

In order to make this work though, we had to ask ModernAire to extend the front-to-back dimension. The hood fully overlaps the burners and in fact extends a little further into the room.

I suspect if you did the same, your design would look more organic and visually pleasing.

Other than that, listen to whatever @kaseki has to say. He has forgotten more about hoods, than what all of the rest of us will ever learn

Keep in mind that a hood is a functional element, not decorative. How much do you cook? What styles of cooking? How often to you entertain? Gas range?

Some styles of cooking produce much more pungent odors than others and while these odors can be pleasant for the first 10 minutes they then become increasingly unpleasant.

If you don't cook or entertain much then you'd likely be OK with any hood. Otherwise you should consider function.

While i agree with Opaone regarding function, you can have both a functional and aesthetically pleasing hood. They are not mutually exclusive.

Vent A Hood also makes custom hoods. We‘re very pleased with ours. It does a great job containing odors, effluents, and grease, is easy to clean...and, it’s ever so quiet.

Darbuka, That is such a lovely kitchen.

Thank you, Zalco!

I am forever grateful for the old Garden Web, for educating me about cabinetry, high end appliances, vent hoods, wood floors in kitchens, and especially soapstone, which I’d never heard of before.

i saw enough white kitchens on the forum to know that, while pretty, they weren’t for me. I love the graining of wood, and chose a species, birch, which has a lot of grain variation. I also went with a cabinet company I’ve only seen mentioned here, once or twice, Tedd Wood. They’re one of the higher end, semi custom companies, made in Pennsylvania. Extremely well made. Great costumer service.

While I enjoy everything about my kitchen, the thing that gives me the most pleasure, is the soapstone counters. We got a hard variety, Belvedere, from M. Teixeira. We oiled off and on for the first two months, but haven’t oiled since. The darkened patina brought out the gorgeous green and white veining. The stone is smooth to touch, kind of sensuous, never gets cold, like granite, and is a breeze to clean. No chips or scratches, after almost four years. It’s great not having to worry about staining or etching, as soapstone is impervious to everything. As a bonus, soapstone is the one stone upon which you can place hot pans, pots and plates, without fear of thermal cracking.

Apologies for for going off topic, but thanks again to Zalco, for his kind words.
