ing of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equip-

ment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment

How much distance should there be between my cooker hood and my hob? Verified

This can very a bit depending on the brand, but in general a cooker hood should be placed at least 65 centimeter above a gas hob and at least 50 centimeter above an electric or induction hob. This is to improve fire safety
