Range hood wall mount

Choose the hood width to match your cooktop and wall space. For wider layouts, a 90cm wall‑mount offers strong suction, while a 60cm model fits standard stoves more easily. Decide between ducted (venting outside) and ductless (recirculation with filters) based on your building and installation access. Also consider suction power, noise level, and wall mounting clearance. Brands like phiima, gs, century, and newcastle offer reliable wall-mount ranges in both 60cm and 90cm sizes.

Airflow capacity (CFM) and ducting type are the core complexities. Higher CFM handles heavy cooking and larger spaces, but may be louder and costlier; ducted hoods vent outdoors while ductless hoods rely on filtration. Look for adjustable speeds, noise ratings (dB), and compatibility with your wall layout when comparing models from brands such as phiima, gs, century, or newcastle.

Beginners should opt for easier installation and lower maintenance with 60cm ductless options that provide straightforward recirculation. Pros or heavy cooks often need higher airflow (CFM) and robust filtration from 90cm models or versatile 60cm/90cm lines, with quieter operation and better build quality from trusted brands.

Regularly clean grease filters and replace carbon filters on ductless units. Ensure the venting path is clear if you choose a ducted design and verify electrical requirements. Confirm the mounting hardware is secure to wall studs and that the chosen model supports either ducted or ductless configuration, with finishes such as stainless steel, black, or silver from brands like gs, phiima, century, or newcastle.

Consider phiima for high‑suction 90cm wall‑mounts, gs for 60cm ductless and plasma‑style extractors, century for 60cm cookers, and newcastle for metal, stainless finishes, or generic metal lines. Each offers different finishes and filter systems, so match the series to your kitchen style and venting needs.

Measure your cooktop width and the available wall space to decide between 60cm and 90cm options. Ensure there is adequate clearance from cabinets and the wall, and mount height above the cooktop is typically around 65–75 cm. Finally, confirm whether you’ll need ducting or if a ductless kit will work with your chosen model.
