The tools you have in your kitchen can affect your cooking experience significantly. One helpful kitchen appliance that is often overlooked is a vent hood. Here are a few of the top reasons why you should consider a vent if you’re remodeling your home. 

Why You Should Install A Vent Hood

1. Better Air Quality

One of the main benefits of having a vent over your stove is that it circulates air and draws up odors, smoke, airborne splatter, and other irritants from cooking. You can also reduce carbon monoxide buildup from regular cooking by turning on the vent over your range. 

2. Extra Lighting 

When cooking, you need to see what you’re doing. Vent hoods are one of the few kitchen appliances that feature lighting for your stove, helping you see better for food preparation and cooking. The extra light can also reveal dirt or grime that is hard to spot and may otherwise not be cleaned as efficiently. 

3. Regulate Temperature 

Ovens and stoves can create a bubble of heat in the kitchen that may make it uncomfortable to cook in. Vent hoods direct heat and steam up and away, keeping the cooking and preparation areas cooler and more tolerable. 

4. Increases Home Value

Buyers and renters expect modern appliances in their home, especially in the kitchen. As such, not having a range vent in your house can decrease the value. Equally necessary is having a vent that is clean and in good working order. 

5. Cleaner Kitchen Area

Because vents draw up grease and other pollutants, your countertops, walls, and other appliances will stay cleaner longer. Time spent cleaning the kitchen will be much shorter as a result, giving you more time to enjoy cooking and less time worrying about a mess.
