Including the run up the chimney section of the hood, approx 4m with 2

That should be OK. If you can do the bends using the ducting and curve it rather than using elbows then even better,

Yes. The impeller inside looks like a drum with blades around the edge, rather than like a propeller.

That sounds fairly steep. Have you looked at the Domus catalogue (available as a .pdf file downloadable from their web site (www. domusventilation.com look under 'ducting') and then asked a builders merchant to quote.

(If you know the fan performance, the catalogue also explains how to calculate the suitability of different types of ducting.)
