Rangetop

14 years ago

I was told that I should not do a rangetop with a downdraft but it looks like that's what is shown here. Has that worked well? What kind of downdraft was used? Thank you!

Hi, I am not the designer for this kitchen however using a downdraft is possible if the ducting (which is in between the joists) is not too far from the exterior of the house. I personally would not use a downdraft with this type of range top, frying and grilling on this high powered range top will produce a good amount of smoke and smells.
With regards to model I cant really tell, it looks like a Wolf in any case you should always buy a downdraft from the same manufacturer.
Hope this helps, Dionne
