What is a recirculating range hood?
A recirculating rangehood (also called a ductless or ventless rangehood) is a kitchen ventilation system that doesn't require external ducting to the outside. Instead, it draws cooking smoke, steam, grease, and odours through internal carbon or charcoal filters, purifies the air, and then recirculates the clean air back into your kitchen. This makes them perfect for apartments, units, or any kitchen where installing external ducting through walls or ceilings isn't possible or practical.
How does a recirculating range hood work?
Recirculating rangehoods work through a two-stage filtration process. First, cooking fumes are drawn up by a powerful fan and pass through a grease filter (usually aluminium mesh) that captures airborne grease and larger particles. The air then passes through activated carbon or charcoal filters that absorb odours, smoke, and smaller contaminants before the purified air is recirculated back into the kitchen. The advantage of having a recirculating rangehood is that you don't need to install a duct pipe through the wall or ceiling, making installation much simpler than ducted alternatives.
What is the best recirculating range hood?
The best recirculating rangehood depends on your specific needs, but top performers in our range include premium Smeg models with powerful extraction rates and quiet operation, reliable Bosch units featuring advanced filtration systems, and innovative NEFF rangehoods with efficient carbon filter technology. Key features to look for include high extraction rates (aim for 600+ m³/hr), low noise levels (under 65dB), quality LED lighting, and easy-access filter replacement.
Do recirculating rangehoods need maintenance?
Yes, regular maintenance is essential for optimal performance. The carbon or charcoal filters need replacing every 3-6 months depending on cooking frequency and style. Heavy cooking or frequent frying may require more frequent replacement. The aluminium grease filters should be cleaned monthly. Signs that carbon filters need replacing include reduced odour absorption, visible grease buildup, or cooking smells lingering in the kitchen after use.
What styles of recirculating rangehoods are available?
Recirculating rangehoods come in all popular styles to suit any kitchen design. Canopy models mount against walls with a traditional chimney look. Undermount rangehoods integrate seamlessly under cabinets for a clean appearance. Slideout models retract when not in use, saving space. Island rangehoods work perfectly above kitchen islands. Integrated units hide completely within cabinetry for minimal visual impact. All styles can operate in recirculating mode with appropriate carbon filter kits.
