Cooker Hoods

A wall-mounted hood is a cooker hood that’s fixed to the wall above your hob, designed to capture steam, grease and cooking odours as you cook. It’s one of the most common hood styles and comes in a wide range of designs—from sleek chimney hoods to modern angled glass models—so it can be a feature in the kitchen as well as a practical extractor. Depending on your setup, it can either vent air outside through ducting or recirculate filtered air back into the room using carbon filters.

A ceiling hood is a cooker hood built into the ceiling above your hob or kitchen island, designed to keep the cooking area clear and open with no hood on the wall or over the worktop. It quietly draws up steam, grease and odours from below and either vents the air outside through ducting or filters and recirculates it back into the kitchen using carbon filters. Ceiling hoods are a great option for modern, minimalist kitchens and open-plan spaces where you want powerful extraction without interrupting the view.

A canopy hood is a cooker hood that’s designed to fit into or under a kitchen wall unit above your hob, with just the underside visible from below. It gives you effective extraction without a bulky chimney on show, making it a popular choice for neat, built-in kitchen designs. Depending on your kitchen setup, a canopy hood can either vent air outside through ducting or recirculate it back into the room using grease and carbon filters.

A visor hood is a slim, wall-mounted cooker hood that sits above your hob and has a small pull-out or fixed “visor” panel to help catch steam and cooking smells. It’s a practical, space-saving option that’s ideal for smaller kitchens or where you don’t want a large chimney-style hood, and it can usually be set up to either extract air outside through ducting or recirculate it back into the kitchen using filters.

An integrated hood (also called an integrated cooker hood or built-in extractor) is a kitchen extractor that’s designed to fit neatly inside a wall unit or cabinet above your hob, so it’s largely hidden from view and keeps your kitchen looking streamlined. It removes steam, grease and cooking odours either by extracting air outside through ducting, or by filtering and recirculating the air back into the room (usually using grease and carbon filters).
