Best Ventilation for Capital Precision 48 inch(with grill),
Comments (3)Wow, there's an open ended question! You may find the fastest way to get started is to do some research on this forum for prior posts, as there is a HUGE body of knowledge here. My favorite place to start is: Please help with ventilation. This is a "vintage" post with some incredibly useful basics. In particular, see kaseki's post on July 31st, which reviews the basics. Then lots of highly opinionated views on everything involved in getting good ventilation. Easy Peasy Ventilation Recent post resurrecting the ongoing religious debate over Vent a Hood. Vent hoods and noise Discussion of noise levels with vent a hoods. If you review these you'll have an understanding of ventilation which already will far exceed what your average appliance salesman has. Then you can post specific questions and get inundated with advice here. PS: one thing confusing on your post: are you saying you have not decided whether to put your range against the wall or on a central island? If that's the case, from a ventilation standpoint it's a no-brainer: wall mount hood will far outperform island hood, all other things being equal....See Moreventilation/remote blower--where does it go? options?
Comments (1)Remote blowers mount on the roof or side wall of your home. You could get an "inline" blower which is what the Gaggenau set up is. Many manuf make them and they come in various CFM levels. These can be mounted in your cabinet, in the attic, or anywhere along the vent stack that has room and is accessible....See MoreVentilation Options
Comments (7)hpxmirage: Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately (in this case anyway), I don't have a tile roof. I have a metal panel roof I just paid big bucks for, so the thought of cutting through it for exhaust, and possibly compromising the integrity of my new roof (leaking had been an issue -- it was a foreclosure home), makes me want to avoid doing that if at all possible. tarheel72: Thanks. For how I cook, as a single guy, I think a downdraft could be good enough. But, knock on wood, I hope to be married, have a family, and have lots of cooking going on in my kitchen. So, tough one... davidro1: Thanks for the input. Stopping cooking midway, waiting, and finishing slow sounds like it would be a major pain!...See MoreBuilt-in indoor grill
Comments (24)I have a gas module and an induction module. Several of us here do. You do need a few inches between the two, but since you were talking big hood, it should be fine. The trick to looks is symmetry. My induction has a stainless bevel frame which matches the bevelled edge of the stainless gas module, and the black grate matches the black induction. With the Wolf and BS 24" you have size and black in common. You can have a range top shaped frame made for the induction, or you can just do a contrast drawer/apron front to mimic the front of the rangetop. The simplest way would be to do the countertop in stainless (sheet or tile) all around both cooktops, and also clad the drawer/apron with it. That makes them visually one unit with some balance. Wrapping a drawer/cabinet front with sheet stainless isn't a big deal. Or you could just say function is function and let them dance. :) It sounds like it's the solution you were looking for....See Morelee676
