3. Ducted vs. Ductless Configuration
Your range hood supports both ventilation methods:
- Ducted (Vented): Air is extracted through ductwork and expelled outside your home. This method offers the most effective removal of smoke, odors, and moisture.
- Sense conductes (recirculant): Air is filtered through optional charcoal filters (not included) to remove odors and then recirculated back into the kitchen. This is suitable when external venting is not feasible.
