FAQs

What are the steps involved in installing a rangehood?
Rangehood installation involves selecting the right size and type for your kitchen, ensuring the proper ventilation, mounting the unit securely to the wall or ceiling, connecting the ductwork (if necessary), and ensuring proper electrical connections are made.
Do I need a licensed electrician for rangehood installation?
Yes, rangehood installations often require electrical connections to be made. It’s essential to hire a licensed electrician to ensure all safety regulations are met and the unit functions properly.
Can I install a rangehood myself?
While you may be able to install a rangehood if you have the right tools and skills, it’s recommended to hire a professional installer to ensure safety, proper operation, and compliance with building codes.
What is the difference between ducted and ductless rangehoods?
Ducted rangehoods vent air outside through ductwork, while ductless models filter air and recirculate it back into the kitchen. Ducted models are more efficient in removing smoke and grease, but ductless models are easier to install.
How do I know if my kitchen is ready for a rangehood installation?
Your kitchen needs to have proper space for mounting the rangehood and either a venting system (for ducted rangehoods) or the right electrical connections. A professional installer can assess your kitchen’s layout and ventilation options.
Can I install a rangehood over a gas cooktop?
Yes, it’s important to install a rangehood above a gas cooktop to help with ventilation, removing fumes, smoke, and heat. The rangehood must be positioned correctly, usually 600mm to 700mm above the cooktop, depending on the model.
What is the cost of installing a rangehood?

The cost varies based on factors like the type of rangehood (ducted or ductless), the complexity of installation, and whether electrical or structural work is needed. It’s best to get a quote from a professional installer.

How long does it take to install a rangehood?
Rangehood installation typically takes between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the complexity of the installation and whether additional modifications are required.
