Kitchen cooker hood minefield is doing my head in. Need to decide and purchase something before the week after next.
Kitchen currently has no extraction. Recirculating is shit. It's a small terrace kitchen, but I cook with woks and griddles and that so do need a good suck. Lowest noise possible is important. Can't go straight out the wall because of the next house over.
The two possible routes I can envisage are either up through the boiler cupboard or all the way across, through the wall and the bathroom and out the exterior wall there.
Is this too long a run of ducting for the average hood to deal with?
If I go up through the boiler cupboard, I'm presuming I could use an inline fan, because that's already what's been proposed by my handyman for improving the bathroom extraction.
The ~2 million nearly identical hoods available, all with confusing and differing specs, prices and dubious availability are confusing the shit out of me.
Halp.
