A cooker hood is a key element for comfort in the kitchen, helping to manage steam, odours and particles generated whilst preparing meals. However, it is not always possible  to install a system connected to a flue or to fit an exhaust duct leading outside.

In these situations, a cooker hood without a flue can be a practical and versatile solution, suitable for a wide range of home layouts and design configurations.

Structural constraints, the layout of the rooms or specific design requirements can make it difficult to install a traditional cooker hood connected to the outside.

A ductless cooker hood allows you to manage steam and odours without the need to install an air extraction system.

This solution may be particularly suitable in the following cases:

The ability to install the hood without creating a connection to the outside offers greater freedom in the design of the kitchen.

Unlike traditional extractor hoods, which channel air out of the home, a ductless cooker hood operates via a filtration system.

The process generally takes place in several stages:

1. air is drawn in from above the hob;

2. the filters trap the grease particles generated during food preparation;

3. additional filtration systems contribute to the treatment of the air;

4. the air is recirculated into the kitchen.

This solution is designed to ensure ease of installation and convenience in everyday use.

Modern filtration technologies have made the ductless cooker hood an increasingly popular choice in contemporary kitchens.

The main advantages include:

These features make this solution particularly attractive for both new builds and refurbishment projects.

When considering a filter-type cooker hood, it is worth taking a few factors into account:

Careful consideration of these factors helps to identify the solution best suited to your needs.

A ductless cooker hood can help to simplify the design of your space and promote greater integration between technology and furnishings, adapting to different interior styles.
