48" hood on interior wall?

6 years ago

Hi there,

I was just speaking with a local appliance store for a kitchen remodel and they noted that a 48" hood is going to be almost impossible to install on an interior wall for a 2 story house. Is that accurate? Any ideas/suggestions on how one might make this work? Thanks

The only issue is ducting, which you'd want regardless of the hood size. Do you have a plan for the ductwork?

(You'll also need a plan for makeup air, but that's only size-relevant in that smaller hoods frequently can skip it altogether.)

I spoke with my contractor and it sounds like we have a plan -- we're moving some interior walls around so we have more options than I realized. Thank you for the reply
