COMBINED HOODS AND HOBS
These single unit 'hob in hoods' feature powerful induction cooking and an integrated hood in the centre which extracts cooking fumes down.
Its design provides great flexibility as there are no limitations on where it can be placed within the kitchen, it can be installed in front of a window or on an island.
This is a great option if you want to install your oven elsewhere in the kitchen as space must be left beneath the HOBD's for the installation requirements.
DOWNDRAFT HOODS
Downdraft models can be hidden beneath your worktop when not in use and then at the touch of a button will rise up ready to extract away cooking odours and vapors.
These are perfect for minimal kitchen designs and can be used in island units.
CEILING AND ISLAND HOODS
Both Ceiling and Island hoods are ideal if your hob is to be installed on a kitchen island unit. They will help keep large open plan kitchens odour free.
A Ceiling hood is perfect if you want a minimalist look as it will sit flush into the ceiling.

AUTO-VENT
Smeg's innovative Auto-Vent system connects the hob to the hood and controls the extraction fan speed automatically to suit the cooking temperature and power settings on the hob itself.
LIGHTS
All Smeg hoods now include energy efficient LED lights. These lights are long lasting, save money and perfectly illuminate the work surface below. They can be switched on regardless of the fans, and used simply to create ambience lighting in the kitchen.
