  • A job I've been putting off is finishing off the extraction from the cooker hood. The last bit to do is drill a 150mm hole in the fascia and route the ducting pipe through it.

    The reason I've been putting it off is that to get the hole in the right place I can't see any other way than to take the fascia off. I don't know how to do it, and don't fancy damaging it in the process. Can someone advise how this is probably fixed on? There are little white fixings by the looks of it, but no idea what they actually are! Advice welcome!

  • Fixings are plastic head nails, no? Easy to pop off, but fascia can bend beyond its elastic limit pretty easily (or does every time I touch it...)

    For the hole, start with a pilot hole, then you can find the scribe diameter of the inside duct to the outside.

  • Remember to allow a slight fall to the duct so that any condensing moisture runs out not back in
