Why Your Kitchen Needs a Properly Vented Range Hood

A good range hood isn’t just about smells. It’s about keeping the air in your kitchen, and the rest of your home, cleaner, healthier, and less sticky. If your current hood just recirculates air or doesn’t vent at all, it’s time for an upgrade.

With professional residential range hood vent installation, you’ll:

Remove smoke, steam, and airborne grease while cooking
Cut down on lingering odors and cooking residue
Keep cabinets, ceilings, and walls cleaner
Reduce moisture that can cause paint or plaster damage
Improve indoor air quality, especially important in open-concept homes

If you’ve been getting by with a fan that doesn’t vent outside, or no fan at all, our range hood vent installation contractors can help make it right.

What Type of Range Hood Venting Is Right for Your Kitchen?

We install vented range hoods in both new kitchens and existing ones. Whether your cooktop is against a wall or on an island, we’ll make sure your setup is safe, quiet, and efficient.

Common venting setups we install:

Wall-mounted hoods with exterior wall venting
Undercabinet hoods ducted through the attic or ceiling joists
Island or ceiling-mounted range hoods vented through the roof
Microwave/hood combo units with proper exterior ducting
Makeup air systems for larger ranges when required by code

We’ll help you choose the right setup and walk you through placement, noise levels, venting route, and what’s needed to bring your kitchen up to code.

Robert (Bobby) Wilhelm, of Comfort Craftsman HVAC, Livonia, Michigan, put a huge smile on my face this week, just in time for the 4th of July. I had purchased two heat pumps of different brands almost a year ago, one of which was successfully installed, while the other unit was deemed to be faulty and returned to the vendor (Menards), which did a good job of providing a replacement by arrangement with the product distributor. (Though this was not as easy as it sounds, as it took several months to locate and contact the distributor, only to find out that they did not provide any product servicing in Michigan or any neighboring state). However, the new unit then sat in my garage for three or so months (while we swelted in the recent 90+ heat!), as the original installer played hide-and-seek with me and every other HVAC company that I called on said they only installed their own units, not to mention that no-one was anxious to pick up on a job that another party had started. Eventually, someone from my regular HVAC company (A. J. Danboise) recommended Robert, who kindly agreed to make an exception in my case. Robert did an excellent job of installing the new unit, finally bringing to an end a frustrating drama that had lasted literally a whole year!

Bobby Wilhelm is an AMAZABLE human being! Bobby IS THE Comfort Craftsman! I spoke with by phone and met with in person about five HVAC professionals. I chose Bobby, because of his exemplary combination of knowledge, communication skills, competency and kindness. He really cares about his craft. He exudes integrity and intelligences. I trust him. He often conducted work while no one was home, and we felt completely comfortable. The heating and cooling works perfectly. And the job was huge. He literally built our entire duct system in the attic and installed a brand new system of forced air heating and cooling, furnace and air conditioning. He has social and emotional intelligences most of us can only dream of. Emotionally and socially poised and skilled. A bit of an artist. And certainly an indoor climate control true scientist. Did I mention that he is excellent with communication? To me that is so important. We are truly grateful and highly recommend him!

Great communication, on-time, great work and very nice

FAQs About Range Hood Vent Installation

Do range hoods really need to be vented outside?

If you cook often or use a gas range, yes. Exterior venting removes steam, grease, and carbon monoxide from your home.

Can I upgrade my recirculating hood to a vented one?

Usually, yes. We’ll check your wall or ceiling space to see where we can run ducting. In most cases, we can create a clean vent path to the outside.

What if I don’t have attic access above the kitchen?

That’s common. We’ll review side wall and soffit venting options, or roof venting if needed. There’s usually a solution that works for your layout.

Will I need a makeup air system?

If your new range hood is very powerful (usually over 400 CFM), the code may require a makeup air system. We’ll let you know if it applies and explain options.

How long does installation take?

Most range hood vent installs take 3–6 hours. More complex ducting can take a day, especially if walls or ceilings need careful routing.
