I am installing a wall mount chimney range hood over my gas cooktop. Does anyone know the recommended/average height for this type of hood? Lets say from the cooktop to the bottom of the hood? There is nothing in the installation manual, and I've seen heights ranging from 30-36 inches up to 40.
Thanx!
BTW..It's a Luxair hood with 900cfms if that makes a diff

It looks like 26-30 inches is recommended. See here: Lux Air Range Hoods (http://www.ventingdirect.com/index.cfm/page/browse:category/categoryID/12032)
