Nowadays, there are more and more kitchen equipments at home, which also has a great impact on our lives. Besides, our life has become more convenient. Other range hoods are the most common equipment in our kitchen. And the range hood is also very famous when it is installed. That is to say, the installation height of the range hood is very particular. So how high is the range hood installed? The following small series will share with you in detail the precautions for the installation of range hoods. I hope our sharing will be helpful to everyone.
What is the standard for the installation height of the range hood?
For this problem, it is not only the installation height of the range hood, but also the design of the whole kitchen. Here are some points to tell you:
1, the height and width of the kitchen floor. Generally, it should be 811mm high and 551mm wide including the marble countertop;
2, the height and width of the kitchen cabinet. The height from the ground to the bottom of the cabinet is 1611 mm-1651 mm. The height * width of the cabinet is 611mm*331mm;
3. After the above two conditions are met, the range hood will not meet at any height.
the installation height of the range hood depends on the range hood brand. Different brands have different heights. Generally, the height from the bottom of the range hood to the cooktop is 651mm-751mm, which depends on the height of your cooktop. If the height of your cooktop is 81 cm, the height of your range hood will be one person's Takaso.
Because the maximum installation height (distance) of the range hood is 811 mm from the cooktop. Most housewives who use the kitchen most often have a clear height of about 1.61 meters, so the accidents of meeting will emerge one after another.
in order to solve this problem, we can first locate the installation height of the range hood according to the height of the hostess, then measure 811 mm as the height of the stove countertop (the distance should not be too large, otherwise the negative pressure will be small, and the exhaust effect will be poor), and then subtract the height (thickness) of the stove, and finally finalize the actual height size of the stove countertop. In this way, a reasonably installed range hood will adapt to the actual needs of family chefs with different heights. By the same token, the height of the sink and countertop (ground cabinet) in the kitchen should also vary from person to person, and it is absolutely impossible to dogmatically adopt a unified standard of 811-851 mm. This little decoration error data has a huge relationship. No matter who is invited for construction, you should make a "hello" with the designer in advance, depending on the number of people, facing the status quo and seeking truth from facts, so as not to regret all day after putting it into use, resulting in unhappy life and fear of entering the kitchen.
everyone may use the range hood every day when they go to the kitchen. Have you ever encountered the situation that the noise and vibration of the range hood are too large, the lampblack can't be pumped out, and the oil drips and leaks? From a professional point of view, we will introduce you to some basic knowledge of use and maintenance:
Knowledge of use and maintenance of range hoods
1. The installation height of range hoods for home appliance maintenance must be appropriate, which can not only ensure no contact, but also ensure the effect of smoke extraction; The normal installation height is that the distance between the bottom of the hood and the top of the stove is 651-711 mm.
2. The air outlet pipe should be shortened as much as possible and the turning radius should be as large as possible, so that the air outlet can be smooth, the smoking effect is good and the noise is reduced.
3. When it is installed in a public flue with a check valve, it is necessary to check whether the check valve can work normally.
4. When installing the hood, the hood must be kept horizontal. If it is tilted, it will affect the flow of the oil circuit in the hood, and oil leakage may occur.
5. Power sockets with reliable grounding must be used.
6. The range hood should be cleaned regularly, so as to avoid the occurrence of excessive noise or vibration, oil dripping, oil leakage, etc. caused by excessive oil sticking on the motor, turbine and the inner surface of the range hood.
7. When using the range hood, keep the air circulating in the kitchen, which can prevent the air in the kitchen from forming negative pressure and ensure the suction capacity of the range hood.
8. Consumers had better not disassemble the range hood for cleaning without authorization, because once the motor is not installed, the smoking effect cannot be guaranteed and the voice will be increased; It is best to let the professionals of the manufacturer carry out cleaning.
Is the greater the power of the range hood, the better the effect?
Promoters often make a fuss about power, saying that the greater the power, the better the smoke absorption effect, which is a big misunderstanding. In fact, there is no necessary connection between power and the effect of lampblack absorption. If a lampblack machine only has high power, but the turbine is rough, the motor manufacturing is not good, and the manufacturing quality of the inner cavity is also poor, it is often just dry power consumption, but it cannot achieve good results.
does the panel material of the range hood have any influence on the use?
regarding the panel material, the promoter may "deliberately forget" not to mention it, or directly say a noun of "certain alloy" to fool consumers. In fact, it is very simple to test the material. The best material in China is generally imported M-Cr fine steel material, which looks fine and textured. This material is resistant to oxidation and corrosion, and it will get brighter and brighter as it is rubbed. To tell the difference between this kind of material and general alloy material, you only need to try it directly with a magnet. Those that can be absorbed must be general inferior alloy or iron, and those that cannot be absorbed are fine steel materials.
is there any difference in the inner cavity design of the range hood?
the importance of the design of the inner cavity of the range hood can not be ignored. On the one hand, it should be as seamless and easy to clean as possible, and at the same time, it should be able to protect the lines so that all kinds of lines can work normally under the strong corrosive condition of oil fume and will not be corroded. The seamless design in the cavity is not only seamless in the cavity, but also the small surface parallel to the stove should be seamless in Hangzhou Cleaning Company, and at the same time, the joint between the oil net and the cavity should be "invisible seamless", such as setting up an oil-proof wall, so as to really leave no clean dead angle.
The function of disassembling and washing the range hood is very important
It is impossible to disassemble and wash the range hood absolutely. After a range hood has been used for one year, it must be disassembled and washed, otherwise the oil fume absorption effect will be seriously affected due to the attachment of the turbine and the inner cavity oil fume. Therefore, a range hood can't be "dismountable and washable" indefinitely, but should be designed to be "dismountable and washable". After one year, you can remove the oil net and clean it by yourself at home, which is really easy to clean.
Although we usually call a master when installing a range hood, knowing something about the installation of the range hood is also beneficial for us to better understand the professionalism and installation quality of the master. Let's briefly talk about how to install the range hood and how high it is installed.
many people may not care much about how to install the range hood, because the installation of the range hood is usually done by professionals, and the height, size and punching holes in the flue of the range hood are all strictly required, so it is difficult to do it well without professionals. When we decorate the kitchen, we usually install the range hood first and then the kitchen ceiling. Materials to be prepared during installation: 1 steel ruler, 1 Phillips screwdriver and 4 screws.
there are several main steps to install the range hood. First, check whether the equipment is complete before installation and then determine the installation location, then fix the hanging plate of the hood and hang the hood on the hanging plate; Finally, install the exhaust pipe, install the oil cup and debug the range hood. Although the steps are relatively simple, you should pay great attention to every detail.
generally, the installation height of the range hood is just above the cooker and on the same axis as the cooker, and the left, front and rear positions should be kept horizontal. The distance from the bottom of the range hood to the cooker surface should be 651~751mm (the side suction machine can be lowered appropriately (211~411mm), depending on the specific use situation). The range hood should not be installed in a place with strong air convection, and it can be painted on the wall with a pencil when installing.
There are still many points to pay attention to when installing the range hood, such as the kitchen is being decorated, so please do not expose the range hood; Do not install the range hood on the wall of flammable materials such as wood; Do not install the range hood on the upper part of the stove using solid fuel; Don't use a flue for range hoods and other gas appliances (such as gas water heaters). When installing, the master can also pay more attention to see if there are any problems.
European-style range hood uses multi-layer oil screen to filter and increase motor power to achieve the best effect. The working principle of European-style range hood is cyclic ascending type, with single turbine, small smoke collecting bin, non-smoke collecting bin and multi-layer dense mesh plates superimposed, and the smoke absorption effect is worse than that of medium-sized machine. However, separation of smoke, low noise, energy saving and environmental protection are the main popular trends of range hoods. Moreover, the European-style range hood is beautiful and fashionable, and there are many kinds of fabrics to choose from. The switch can have the styles of mechanical switch and touch switch to choose from, which increases the highlights of the kitchen and is novel in style.
The side suction hood is designed by aerodynamics and fluid mechanics, and the principle of separating the oil fume with the oil fume separating plate on the surface before discharging clean air. It is characterized by good smoke extraction effect, and the smoke extraction effect is above 99%. Don't drop oil, don't meet, hide in the cupboard and integrate with the cupboard, and don't occupy space. The motor is oil-free and has long service life and convenient cleaning. Soot does not pass through the breathing area to ensure the health of housewives.
at first glance, there are so many types of range hoods, how should we choose them? In fact, you just need to be clear about your actual needs. Affordable, large suction, the first choice for Chinese range hoods; Family members are tall and afraid of meeting, so side suction is necessary; With the overall fashionable home style and ample budget, European style is your first choice. At the same time, the installation size of the kitchen is also something you must consider. After all, you should buy the range hood products according to the actual situation and choose the range hood that is most suitable for your kitchen.
The above is the matters needing attention about the installation of range hoods and the installation height of range hoods. I hope our sharing will help you, but many friends think that the installation height of range hoods is not very important. It is wrong to think that as long as the range hood can smoke, but what we share with you above includes the height of the range hood installation and the matters needing attention. I hope that everyone can pay attention to the installation of range hoods in future life.
