Rated Excellent 5/5Smeg Canopy Cooker Hoods
Canopy Cooker Hoods
A canopy cooker hood is one of the more popular types of cooker hood on the market. They are designed to be fairly well hidden into an existing chimney breast, your kitchen cabinets or even a custom-made decorative canopy unit. In fact, the only part you will see of a canopy hood is the underside of it!
Like any other hood, a canopy hood will really help getting rid of nasty cooking smells from the room and preventing a smoky environment.
Canopy cooker hoods are great if you want a minimal, sleek look. They come in a variety of widths, finishes and power levels. Choose a canopy hood if you don’t want your hood to stand out in your kitchen!

Canopy Cooker Hoods
A canopy hood is designed to be discreetly positioned for fitting inside your kitchen cabinets. Since they are built to be positioned out of sight they are often not the most stylishly type of hood, but being tucked away that does not matter so much!
They are however versatile enough to be used above either a range cooker or a hob. For cosmetic purpose you would normally select a hood that has the same width as the hob or range cooker below it.
Most of the canopy hoods featured here can be used for extracting the air out of your kitchen to an external outlet or for re-circulating cleaned air back in.
If you are recycling the hood will draw air in, clean it with the grease and charcoal filters and then expend the clean purified air back into your kitchen. This process is slightly less efficient then extracting the air out to an external source. You will need to replace charcoal filters around every six months (depending on use). Grease filters can often be washed in a dishwasher but follow the manufacturers guidelines.
If you are extracting the air out (or 'ducting out') it is normally recommended to use 150mm diameter rigid ducting. Also try to keep the number of bends to a minimum for an efficient air flow.
Most canopy hoods will have lighting to illuminate your food for you and some will also have an auto-off function if it is no longer needed.
