Cooker hood chimney

Aug 22, 2016 3 Replies

I have just removed the cooker hood. The chimney is just a U channel some 3 sides at 6 inches or so. Shouldn't there be an insert that slides the height into the ceiling, or at least a plate to circle the square?


Most non-recirculating cooker hood have a circular duct to the outside and a square trim to cover the duct so that it looks pretty (if it's visible.)

Bloody landlors scrimping at everyone's expense. There is supposed to be a covered section though so that nothing runs into the wall

Weatherlawyer pretended :

There should be a sealed duct of some sort, rising to the ceiling and out. The U shape is just a trim cover..
