Installation
Installation recommendations
- When deciding on the safety distance
between the hob and cooker hood,
please note that a distance of
650 mm above electric cookers/hobs
may be preferable to give more work-
ing space under the hood.
- Account should also be taken of the
height of the person who will be us-
ing the hood most often. They should
have sufficient space to work com-
fortably at the hob, and be able to
reach the cooker hood controls with
ease.
- Please be aware that if positioned too
high, extraction will be inefficient.
- To achieve optimum vapour extrac-
tion, the cooker hood must be posi-
tioned centrally over the hob, not to
the side.
- The hob should be no wider than the
cooker hood, and if possible, it
should be narrower.
- The installation area must be easily
accessible. The cooker hood should
be easily accessible and easy to dis-
mantle in the event that service is re-
quired. This should be taken into
consideration when planning the pos-
ition of cupboards, shelves, ceilings
or features in the vicinity of the
cooker hood.

bracket is variable. It will depend on the
position of the wall vent and the socket.
It should be set as low as possible.
