At your price point, function may be minimal. You need at least a 600 cfm hood. Get a good hood unless you don't cook much or are planning to move soon.

Thanks! Don't mind going up in price. Any recommendation on a 600cfm hood?

Thanks Donna! You've heard good things about this one?

Inm2016, you need to head to the Appliances forum where there are many, many threads about hoods and how to size them.

Choosing a hood is dependent upon your range and how you cook. Also are you required to have make up air?

Good luck.

Only what I've read online and it got good reviews. I absolutely love the look of it.

Iowacommute-I had no idea there is an appliance forum. Thank you!! Will go search now

Before you order a hood you need to know if there are any beams behind exactly where you are intending to run the duct. So the beautiful hood that Donna Loomis linked to is fine so long as your duct will fit in the chimney for that hood if in fact yours requires a significant bend to the right or left you may need to install an entire cabinet to cover the ducting with the visible part of the hood just being below cabinet level.

To determine the cfm you need add up the maximum BTU of all of the burners on your stove and divide by 100 that equals the CFM you need. Depending upon where you live will decide whether or not you need make up air. In general it seems like so long as you have less than 300 CFM there are no local make up air requirements. At over 300 (sometimes over 400) there may be local requirements. If you need more than 300 CFM there's actually a long involved calculation that is supposed to be done to determine whether or not your exact house needs make up air... People don't like to do the calculation... A lot of contractors just install hoods and never ever bother with make up air systems. The reason it's important is if your hood is pulling a significant amount of air, where is it getting the air from? So the biggest danger is if you have a fireplace in the same room and the hood begins to pull the embers from the fire across your floor... There are lots of smaller dangers too. It is important to look at this. A lot of times the entire make up air issue can be resolved by just opening a kitchen window-which is fine because it works but it is probably not to code.

Thank you practigal, will talk to my contractor. We are in nyc and I'm not sure about the laws of make up air here.

Inm if you figure out the loca make up air requirements, please post an update.

practigal, thanks for the explanation. I've read and read the appliance forum and couldn't understand exactly what the harm was with a lack of make up air.

queens info so far i have found this. we were away this weekend, so I will have to speak to my contractor tomorrow to confirm this information. But this is all i could find.

calculated the BTU and will be needing no more than 600 com (total calculation came to be 580 cfm). I will not be using more than 2 burners at a time. There will be two surrounding cabinets on both sides of the hood. Ceiling is 8 foot high. cabinets are 30in high. Still looking for recommendations on wall mounted ducted hood, please.
