The island hood — luxury in the kitchen
1
2The service challenges: working at height (usually needs 2 technicians), the ducts are in the ceiling, it is suspended from the ceiling and needs securing, the electrical connections are in the ceiling, and the motors are stronger than a wall hood because the kitchen area is larger.
3At BuiltInFix, we have a team specialized in island hoods: 2 technicians per visit for safety, tools for working at height, and etise in brands (Falmec, Faber, Elica).

An island hood suffers from specific faults due to the high installation and the powerful motors.
Weak suction
Despite the powerful motor, the filters are clogged or the ceiling ducts have a fault.
