Range hood

8 years ago

Thanks for the feed back. I have been studying your kitchen in the Fine Home Building magazine article and love your ideas - I hope to incorporate some of them in our kitchen renovation.

Regarding lighting, keep in mind that 99% of range hoods have lights, and it's important to match them to the overall lighting in the kitchen, to make sure that the cooking area illumination doesn't clash with the rest. Halogen, incandescent, fluorescent, and LED lights have different color spectrums, and you would not want to end up with, for example, cool-white LED lighting all around the room and a yellowish light from halogen lights on the range hood.

Kitchen Pantry depth issue.

Your renovation looks like it is going very well, don't get discouraged. I think before you change the pantry cupboard, it would be worthwhile you and your partner mocking up the eating area and the kitchen island unit to get an idea of where you're going. Re the island, I think an island unit which runs to the end of the pantry cupboard will add more weight and bulk to the space and anchor the pantry. It could be a working bench at the far end and an eat-on area at the closer end. This will give you space to 'land' items you are pulling out of the pantry If you mocked this up with some boxes and sheets, and then also added some large "pictures" taped to the walls, left and right of the pantry, I think it would give you a much better idea of the finished space. Re the art size, possibly pieces that relate to the pantry cupboard height on the left side of it and two pieces either side of the range hood that relate to the lower level upper cabinets at the far end .

Thanks lovely. We expected it at some point but for half the amount of flats. it seems nigh on impossible for a council to refuse under Permitted Development Rights, have only found a couple of cases. It means that the flats are way below the Nationally Described Space Standards (which gives minimum square footage etc based on dwelling, occupancy), have little parking and a few have no windows at all whereas a number only have one window into the kitchen/living area. Annoyingly the owner was Chairman of his parish council and sat on the DC planning team and objected to so many developments that affected him or his village..... Rant over, sorry! oh it was the mosaic company, I think they're also called zellige tiles. I'm guessing that's where you got yours too as the colours were numbered and I remembered your black tile number

What's the best recirculation hood?
Q

Hello, We're renovating an apartment and it's not possible to put in a proper range hood with ducts. I've been going through the internet for hours to find a really good recirculation hood. I seem to get a lot of random reviews that seem to be by websites just linking to amazon to get you to buy something. Any tips most welcome for what will function the best. Not worried about design too much. Eliminating odor is probably the priority. Thanks
