sg_retroguy 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2007 Hi all,I am seriously considering an OPEN KITCHEN concept; however, we also cook. We are considering the cooking stove section to be encased with glass on both sides (like how you see in some food courts).Could you folks advise on the best hood that can suck up the oily fumes?I was told Fujioh is the best - it is difficult to compare with the other brands. Would love the owners of Fujioh to advise, please.Would the hood really suck up all the oil? Will the house be oily? Any advise from members that have open-kitchens?Thanks.

Mousehunt 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2007 Firstly, you need to have the correct expectation. I currently use a high end model of Fujioh where the suction is about 88%? I can say that it really suck well if install correctly.However, note that it doe snot suck the oil 100%. So there are bound to have some oil vapor escaping to the air.So you still need to mop the floor and clean the kitchen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raincole 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2007 Did you install it at 500mm, able to support? Did you tell the capentry guys and they are able to do the kitchen cabinet right for you?How is your support like? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mousehunt 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2007 (edited) Yup. They did it for me. But currently mine is the triangular (side view) type of hood. So it may not be 500mm. The new hood I get from Fujioh is those normal ones.What do you mean by support? Edited July 17, 2007 by Mousehunt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The new hood I get from Fujioh is those normal ones.What do you mean by support?Are you using model 800MK2? This is the one with 88% absorption rate. The installation height is 500mm (which is lower than the market recommended height of 750mm). If not 500mm, is it still able to absorp the oil fumes?Support: Support using the kitchen cabinet or wall? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So far the performance has been impressive for me compared to what my other friends have.My hood is all supported by the wall. I do not like to be supported by the cabinets. It is just too risky for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is just too risky for me.It seems like from most forum posting, Fujioh seems to be the popular choice for people that are concerned with the oil problem.Any advice from others on Open-Kitchens?I am also toying with the possibility of having those hawker stall type gas burners - to have good fire for cooking.

Mousehunt 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2007 Aiyoh. You got it all wrong. My current model is 900. The one you saw in the pic is also 900. But in the past, Fujioh 900 looks like the current 800MK2. The one that i have it now is FX900.http://www.fujioh.com.sg/cookerhoods.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
