Using perfect chimney size
◎ There are two sizes of chimney kitchens, 60cm, 
and 90cm. It is important to install an ideal 
chimney for your kitchen so that smoke and 
fumes will not enter your home.
◎ If your chimney is bigger than your stove, you 
can have cooking splattered all over the kitchen 
in no time. If your chimney size is the same as 
your hob size, it must be placed so that the 
entire stove fits inside of the chimney.
◎ If your chimney is small, you can place it just 
under the range of the stove.

Chimney Duct  
Nowadays, the majority of chimneys in the market are 
ductless. In case you are using a ducted chimney, 
go for Stainless Steel or Aluminum Duct. These two 
materials are highly durable and useful for the 
purpose. 
PVC pipes can be an option, but chances of burning and 
melting are always there. So, be careful while 
dealing with it.
Ensure that the pipe or duct must have fewer bends as 
this is very inconvenient. It is better if you try using 
shorter pipes with shallower turns and bends.

Creating Hole for 
Chimney Duct  
The cut out hole for the duct must be 7 feet in the air on the exterior 
wall of the kitchen. Contact a chimney installer in case of no pre-
existing hole. 
Alternatively, if you have an available space then you can use that 
to install chimney ducts as well. If you live in a rented house then 
better to go to Ductless Chimney.

Maintaining the perfect distance between the Hob 
and the chimney
◎ Precision and perfect alignment are crucial when you install 
a chimney stack. The space between your two feet should 
be between 26 to 30 inches.
◎ The presence of an oil collector inside the fireplace means 
there is always a risk of a fire if the distance is less than 26 
inches. However, if your chimney is far away from the oven 
then the suction power of the chimney might not work 
correctly and your kitchen would not be smoke and grease-
free.
◎ The farther you are from the chimney, the more is its 
efficiency. 
◎ Note: Do not ignore the safety precautions while working 
on the kitchen chimney. 6
