No matter how busy a modern person is, he cannot do without frequent pastime in the kitchen. And in the process of cooking, especially when frying or cooking, a considerable amount of fat is formed, a variety of smells appear. So how do we deal with that? Is it mandatory to install the hood? Or is it possible to use conventional ventilation?

And today's edition. "Site" find out Do I need a hood in the kitchen? And in what cases it won't help. It is worth remembering that without an installed hood, a person automatically loses the warranty for kitchen furniture. Here's why.





The ventilation system in any apartment works as follows: living rooms provide air flow, kitchen and bathroom - outflow. Even when designing a house, architects make sure that air circulation works in this way. In private homes, the same system continues.





But it often happens that airflow It's broken. This happens, for example, when the ventilation channel is clogged and the outflow of air stops.

Or in winter, when the windows are tightly closed, because then the fresh air ceases to flow and the apartment becomes stuffy. Due to the latter problem, supply valves on plastic windows are popular, which allow air from the street to enter the rooms.





However, if the correct air circulation is disturbed, then the hood will not help here. Therefore, only with normal air exchange, experts recommend installing the hood, especially if the owners like to cook and at the same time use a gas stove.

The hood saves from particles of hot fat and gas combustion products. In the case when the kitchen does not have an hood, then when aired, these drops of fat fly throughout the kitchen, covering both furniture and the ceiling.





But in the kitchen with a gas stove, the hood is more needed. Even if a person is not fond of cooking and does not often fry something. This is because gas combustion products are more harmful to health than the smallest drops of fat. And dirty sediment on the walls, furniture and ceiling they leave more.





Be sure to get an hood (and keep it on) if the kitchen with facades of PVC film, as hot fumes and fat are harmful to this material: it warps and peels off.

We must not forget that hooder It should be washed every 2-3 weeks. If the device is not cleaned at least once a month, the dirt will prevent the removal of polluted air, as a result of which the hood will work idle. By the way, dirty plates are easy to wash in the dishwasher.





Of course. hood - everybody's business. But if, due to the lack of hood (or the fact that it was turned off), the kitchen facades deteriorate, then the manufacturer does not recognize this as a warranty case and will not replace anything. Therefore, caring sellers of kitchen furniture so strongly and recommend the hood to buy.
