Safety distance between hob and
cooker hood (S)
When planning the installation height
of your cooker hood, the minimum
safety distances between the top of
a cooker or hob and the bottom of
the cooker hood are as follows,
unless a greater distance is
specified by the manufacturer of
your cooking appliance:
450 mm above electric hobs
and cookers
650 mm above gas hobs
and cookers
650 mm above an open grill or
deep fat fryer
See "Warning and Safety"
instructions for further information.
– When deciding on the safety distance
between the hob and cooker hood,
please note that a distance of 650
mm above electric cookers/hobs may
be preferable to give more working
space under the hood.
– Account should also be taken of the
height of the person who will be using
the hood most often. The person
should have sufficient space to work
comfortably at the hob, and also be
able to reach the hood controls with
ease.
– Please be aware that if positioned too
high, extraction will be inefficient.
– If you want the top of the cooker hood
telescopic extension piece to be
mounted flush with the ceiling, make
sure there is adequate space below
the appliance for working. See
maximum/minimum appliance height.
