hi zheilwane, my house ceiling is quite tall. I'm looking for my kitchen hood paip (mark black rectangle in picture). May I know where can I get the paip or I actually need to replace a whole new hood? thanks.

If you would like to get something better, then change the hood. However, as your ceiling is too high, normal chimnet hood can only reach 8ft ceiling, if any higher you will need to do a box-up to cover it or i know a shop that can customize a longer casing

I think yours is a cabinet recirculating type hood. I used to have one of these hood before. It doesnt have any outlet wan so yes you would need to buy a new one if you want a ducted hood

Usually the cover (the black lines you drew) maximum height is about 900mm to 1000mm. The hood is installed about 650 to 750mm from your counter top. That means from your counter top to your ceiling must not be more than 900+750=1650mm (approximately lah)

As I can see from your picture, the stove to hood is like 6,5 ft - Thats too high up and your hood is practically useless to suck anything. Your stove top is way too low lah unless you are a midget  biggrin.gif
your stove to ceiling is already 3800mm

everything is wrong with your kitchen cabinet. How can it be sitting on the floor like that? It should be sitting on legs with a plinth to cover up. My goodness who made your cabinets for you?  sweat.gif

sigh... all these were the ex owner design lar..u r right bro, the stove to hood is too high and it seems unable to suck thing effectively... for the kitchen cabinet that sitting on the floor , ex owner explained to me it's easier to wash and clean the floor... buy maybe he forgot that i have to take out all stuff inside if I want to wash the floor... kind of joker..

Yup was thinking to make legs for the kitchen cabinet to cover up but looks like end up I may need to destroy everything and rebuild my kitchen cabinet.... so now just retain as what the orginally was.. just need to make sure I just mop the kitchen floor without pouring water to clean it...if I need to do so, then I hv to remove stuff inside my the cabinet... rclxub.gif

Well, the one you are using is kinda basic, any hood in my shop will b able to do a better job than that smile.gif

If you need more tips or advise, get the measurements of your cabinets. height of ceiling and etc. I could suggest something to solve your problems. Ask to speak to zean since i already seen your cabinet photo and remind me about the issues

Dear Zheilwane

Sorry for late reply. I've done the measurement as follows:

1) height from feiling to basin is 193cm,=76inch ;
2) width for gas stove (already bought a movable ones but not show in picture) is 92.5cm=36inch ;
3) deep is 59cm,=23inch,
4) tall from marble table to basin is 21cm=8inch

Hope to receiving your further comments and advises. Thanks

It is possible to install a ducted hood with your measurements. If you are planning to change the tiles, you can remove the old exhaust fan. For hob, if you do not wan to change the table top, just cover it and make it to be the same height as your kitchen sink. by standard, the height of the sink should be 840mm or 33".

hi
1) I didn't plan to change my tiles so the exhaust fan can just remain there
2) I prefer to change the table top but the problem is can I get the same door replacement as the existing door?
Hardware shop got selling this kind of kitchen door?
3) The cover box is a good idea but plaster ceiling I think is not necessary.

Could you please send me a quotation for all these including the instalation of a ducted hood ? Thanks

The door, actually you can get from kitchen cabinet companies, you can PM some of the sellers here in lowyat, check them out in the kitchen cabinet thread.

For pricing, you will need to drop by my showroom to select the models according to your preference. DO drop by quick as Rubine and Fotile price will increase next month

Hi zheilwane, unable to drop by these two weeks due to busy, can pls pm the brochure/ price to me? Thanks
