F113tch Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 With MVHR fitted, is it recommended to use a hob extractor that is vented to outside, or should you only consider a recirculation style of extractor please? Thanks, Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyshouse Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Blow greasy yuk outside, use a good non return flap or actuated valve, I don’t like grease or greasy steam in my MVHR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Either an option. You just need to use a decent damper flap (ideally actuated) with vent out. We went for recirculating because of difficulties getting the duct through the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Valley Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 (edited) A powerful recirculating hood will remove the nasties before it gets in your MHVR unit. We didn't want a hole in the outside wall so went down this option. The MHVR vent is 4 feet away from the recirculating unit and 8 feet from the vent exit. Our induction hob is an island and hoods are limited if not against a wall. We went for a large Cookology 100cm ceiling unit Edited April 4, 2022 by Happy Valley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
