• In new kitchen we're getting an induction hob on a kind of island/breakfast bar.
    Been told we can't fit an integral/downdraft extractor as it has the oven beneath the hob.
    Looking now at a ceiling extractor ducting to the outside, or not bothering with one at all above the hob and installing one in the wall instead.
    The current awful extractor is recirculating type and does not duct to the outside.
    Has anyone had recent experience of Building Regulations for hob extraction?
    Webz search suggests we don't need any extraction to satisfy Building Regs as current fan doesn't vent to outside and there's no extension work to kitchen, it's just a replacement.

    (BTW Thanks for the cabinet hardware links...so much choice!)

  • don't have any insight on the building regs but we did this (installed wall extractor + induction hob on island.) no issues so far w/smoke or smells
