Hi all,
Looking for some advice on both the legal requirements and practical requirements for hanging my range hood.
I am coming up with two conflicting bits of information regarding the building code. I'm hanging the hood above a gas hob. Some places state 600mm above the hob, others 650mm. Forums also lead to the conflict, can anyone link me to the actual regulation so I can see which it is?
I mainly ask because the manual for my hood states it should be hung 600mm above both gas and electric.
Would hanging it higher affect its efficiency? I would prefer it 650mm or even 700mm high just personally, regardless of code but worry it would not be as effective.
Thanks for any advice/ help with this.
