Built-in cooker hood - which model is worth choosing?

A built-in kitchen hood is an appliance with a remarkably long list of advantages. The most notable include its functionality and its completely discreet nature, which allows for a cohesive and seamless kitchen design. A built-in hood is therefore suitable for nearly any type of interior — from modern to classic.

What to consider when choosing a built-in kitchen hood?

Before purchasing a built-in kitchen hood, it's important to consider the parameters you need. If you want a quiet hood, choose one with a low decibel level. This will allow you to comfortably talk on the phone or listen to music while cooking. A great solution could also be a hood with an external motor, which can be placed in the attic or outside the building. In this case, the only sound you’ll hear is the gentle hum of air being drawn in, making the kitchen even more comfortable to be in.

The next step before purchasing is to calculate what hood extraction capacity is required for your kitchen, based on its volume. The larger the room, the higher the extraction capacity the hood will need to filter the air effectively.

When installing a built-in hood, you’ll also need to consider its dimensions. At GLOBALO, many models come in several sizes, allowing you to perfectly match them to the width of your cabinet.

Types of built-in hoods

Built-in kitchen hoods can differ not only in their parameters and materials but also in their construction. The most common types are:

• completely concealed — hoods that are flush with the bottom of the cabinet,

• partially visible — where a small part is visible below the cabinet, sometimes adding to the kitchen’s appeal or facilitating easier operation,

• with an external motor — where the turbine is placed outside the room.

The variety of options available allows you to choose a hood that fits perfectly with any kitchen cabinetry.

Built-in kitchen hood — what type of controls?

Built-in hoods come with various control mechanisms. The most common options include:

• mechanical buttons,

• knobs,

• touch panels,

• remote control.

Each of these solutions has its advantages. Classic buttons are easy and intuitive to use. Knobs are easy to feel, so the hood can be operated while standing upright, and it can be installed deeper into the cabinet. A touch panel makes the hood surface smooth and easy to clean, while a remote control allows for convenient operation from various places in the kitchen.

Recommended built-in kitchen hoods

Which built-in hood should you buy? Here are a few recommended GLOBALO models that operate quietly, efficiently, and seamlessly fit into your kitchen surroundings.

Agendero 80

The Agendero 80 built-in kitchen hood is designed for cabinets 80 cm wide. At just 44 dB on its first setting, it’s one of the quietest hoods on the market. It features a practical display and easy-to-use soft-touch buttons. The lighting is energy-efficient, and the Agendero is available in three finishes: white, black, and inox, allowing you to match it with other kitchen appliances and furniture.

Loteo 60

Available in two colour options, the Loteo 60 is a beautifully designed cooker hood with excellent performance. It features a powerful motor with a capacity of 525 m³/h, making it ideal for larger kitchens. The Loteo is operated via a touch control panel or optionally with a remote control. It includes perimeter extraction, which increases suction pressure and makes the hood even more efficient at capturing cooking fumes. The Loteo is highly popular among those looking for an elegant yet durable appliance for their kitchen.

Silentio 60

Silentio 60 is a cooker hood without a motor, making it an excellent choice if you want to enjoy near-total silence and tranquillity in your kitchen. The device is designed to work with an external motor, which can be placed in another room or outside the building. As a result, the only sound you'll hear in the kitchen is the gentle hum of air being extracted. To complete the setup, you'll need to purchase a TW or TZ family motor. Like the Loteo hood, the Silentio also features perimeter extraction, which enhances its efficiency. A significant advantage of this hood is its compact size. With a casing height of just 10.5 cm, it is one of the smallest built-in cooker hoods available on the market.

Spedtero 60

Spedtero 60 is designed for those looking for a completely discreet built-in cooker hood. The trapezoidal body allows for easy installation of hinges in the cabinet. Spedtero is equipped with tactile knobs, ensuring easy and convenient control. The hood is available in two timeless colours — white and black. Optionally, the appliance can be stylishly adorned with coloured knobs in copper or gold tones.

Thanks to the wide variety, everyone can find a built-in cooker hood that perfectly suits their kitchen.
