Every domestic and commercial kitchen should have a rangehood professionally installed to ensure, proper ventilation, help maintain cleanliness and remove cooking odours while cooking is in progress
A rangehood, at times referred to as a kitchen hood, vent hood, or exhaust hood is carefully positioned above gas or eclectic stove or cooktops. A rangehood when turned on will remove airborne grease, steam, and food odours and improve air quality in the kitchen. Rangehoods, while simple in design, are essential appliances found in nearly every kitchen. They feature a fan or blower and a filtration system that traps grease and other contaminants. This allows them to either vent air outside the home or recirculate filtered air back into the kitchen
Whether you need a new rangehood installed or an upgrade Triforce Electrical & Air is here to assist you every step of the way.
Our electricians have installed all styles and sizes of rangehoods, in homes, rental properties, units and commercial kitchens. Depending on your kitchen layout and your personal preferences there are two main rangehood installation options
Ducted rangehood installation: This system allows cooking fumes, steam, and food odours to be expelled outside the building, making your kitchen a more comfortable space whilst cooking is in progress. Installation involves connecting the rangehood to a vent or duct that leads outside the building through an exterior wall or roof. Vent installation typically involves cutting holes for ducting, securing the vent, sealing gaps, and ensuring the rangehood operates efficiently and is compliant with local building codes.
Ductless rangehood installation: Ductless installation that does not require exterior venting, makes this installation method more flexible and less expensive. The downside of a ductless rangehood is it is less effective at eliminating moisture, steam and odours from your kitchen space.
The type of range hood you choose will depend on your kitchen layout, ventilation needs, and preferred design. If you are unsure of which style would be best suited to your kitchen design and ventilation needs, speak to one of our friendly team members for guidance. Rangehood styles include:
The cost to install a rangehood depends on factors such as the rangehood type, the labour involved and any additional costs, such as additional power or circuit connections. For an accurate estimate, speak to one of our team who can provide a quote based on your specific requirements.
