What are the Basics of a Range Hood and What are Examples of Renter Friendly Range Hoods?

Looking to rent a condo, and I cook daily so a range hood is a must.

Can someone give the basics on how Range Hoods are bought and installed?

I read around and there are 3 styles?

  1. Under Cabinet
  2. Wall-Mounted
  3. Ceiling-Mounted

The condo I’m eyeing does not have cabinets on their kitchen, so should I look at Wall-Mounted instead?

The goal is I should be able to bring it with me after a year or so when I eventually move out and buy a home.

Mr_Blott ,

Can you change your hob? Miele make an excellent one with the extractor in the middle of the hob

oof, forgot to add the question mark thanks

counselwolf OP ,

what do you mean by hob?

iirc there was a hole ready for the ducts of the range hood.

Mr_Blott ,

Sorry hob/range, same thing

I’ll only be using a portable induction stove. I just need something to vent out the fumes/smoke while cooking, hence the Range Hood.

I think it’d be too costly to buy the range along with the hood.

Where do you live? In the us a range is required to have some sort of vent above it, I have never heard of a hood that could be installed and then removed at a later date. They are intended to be permanently installed appliances. If your renting a hood above the cook surface is required and shouldn’t be something you are buying.
