Vent-a-Hood install height?

I met with my cabinetmaker today and he noted that the VAH insert I'm considering specifies that its surround should be 27-30" above the range top. What??? It extends 22" out from the wall (before being enclosed in a hood cover). Does anyone really install it this low? How much does performance suffer if it is set higher? It would barely clear my head and my husband would have to duck!
