Island Range Hoods

Frequently asked questions

What is an island range hood?

An island range hood hangs from the ceiling above a hob set into a kitchen island, so it has no wall behind it. Because it is visible from every side, its design matters as much as its performance. This collection includes France island hoods in 40 cm and 90 cm widths and a Campomatic model, each with full details on its product page.

What size island hood do I need for my hob?

A wider hood captures more of the steam and smoke rising from the hob, and island hoods need good coverage because air can drift in every direction. Compact 40 cm designs have a smaller footprint and a lighter, decorative look, while 90 cm models cover a wider cooking area. Check each manual for the hob widths the hood is designed for.

How high should an island hood be above the hob?

Each island hood has minimum and maximum mounting heights in its installation manual, and these are usually different for gas and electric hobs. Follow those figures for safety and good extraction. Also check your ceiling height, since the chimney or suspension length must bridge the gap between the ceiling and the hood's position.

Should an island hood be ducted or recirculating?

A ducted hood sends cooking fumes outside through a duct, usually running through the ceiling, which needs planning during kitchen works. A recirculating hood filters the air through carbon filters and releases it back into the kitchen, which makes installation simpler but means replacing the carbon filters regularly. Check which modes each model supports.

Can you install an island hood on my kitchen ceiling?

Yes, our team can install your island range hood. Before installation, confirm that the ceiling above the island can support the hood, that a power point is in place and, for ducted use, that the duct route is ready. Share your ceiling height and hob type with us so the hood is fitted at the correct height.

Is there a warranty on island range hoods?

Yes. Every island range hood comes with the manufacturer's warranty, as supplied by France or Campomatic. Terms range from 1 to 10 years depending on the product and the manufacturer, and we pass them on transparently. Ask us for the exact warranty of the model you like before ordering.
