Will your wall-mount range hood fit? Clearances and door swing#
As an exposed statement piece against the wall, this canopy is planned around mount height, the telescoping flue, and its reach into the room. Perch it 28 to 36 inches over the cooktop — taller than a beneath-cabinet vent, because the hood is bigger and sits out in the open. The flue extends 30 to 45 inches to bridge an eight or nine-foot ceiling, so size that stack to your ceiling before the backsplash and cabinetry are set. Depthwise it reaches 19 to 27 inches over the burners, worth checking against how close a cook stands. With no cupboard above to bury the ducting, the flue and duct show, and both must run cleanly to the wall or roof. Nail down the ceiling height and duct path first.

Wall-mount range hood sizes by type: 30-inch wall-mount chimney hood, 36-inch wall-mount chimney hood, 48-inch pro wall-mount hood#
The three widths climb with the cooktop and its heat. The 30-inch canopy, reaching 19 to 21 inches into the room, is the showpiece over a standard wall cooktop. The 36-inch build broadens the hood and juts 20 to 22 inches for a wider range against the wall. The 48-inch pro model, 24 to 27 inches deep with a 32 to 45 inch flue, is made for a commercial-style range and its heavy output, sweeping more air over a larger surface. Fit the canopy to the cooktop width, then size the flue to your ceiling.
