Integrated Hoods Ireland

Seamless Kitchen Design Meets Powerful Extraction

Why You'll Love Integrated Hoods

• Hidden Design That Protects Your Aesthetic – Built-in cooker hoods sit neatly within your kitchen units, preserving the clean lines of your cabinetry. Integrated extractor hoods are ideal for maintaining aesthetics in modern kitchens, letting your kitchen design speak for itself rather than being interrupted by bulky appliances.
• Powerful Extraction Where It Counts – With measured extraction rates in cubic metres per hour indicating how effectively a hood clears air, these hoods remove steam, smoke, and cooking odours at the source. Models range from 240 m³/h for everyday cooking up to 850 m³/h for demanding hob setups.
• Space-Saving for Compact Kitchens – Unlike chimney or visor hoods that protrude into the room, integrated hoods blend seamlessly into overhead cabinets. Telescopic hoods are visible only when in use, retracting completely when cooking is done.
• Built to Last with Premium Materials – Dishwasher-safe grease filters can be cleaned in a dishwasher, and robust stainless steel construction ensures years of reliable performance. Warranty and reliability tend to vary widely across budget and premium integrated hood brands, so choosing quality matters.
• Simple, Intuitive Operation – Multiple fan speed settings let you match extraction intensity to your cooking. Many integrated cooker hoods feature built-in LED lighting that illuminates your hob surface, and controls range from a mechanical slider to touch panels depending on the model.

How Integrated Hoods Work

1. Seamless Installation Within Your Cabinet Your integrated hood is designed to mount inside the upper kitchen cabinet directly above your hob. It sits flush with surrounding cabinetry, completely hidden from view when not in use. Integrated hoods should be assessed for their ducting options and ease of installation before purchase.
2. Powerful Extraction During Cooking Switch on, select your fan speed, and the hood draws steam, smoke, and grease-laden air upward through metal grease filters. Integrated cooker hoods can operate in recirculation or extraction mode - vented models push air outside through 150 mm ducting, while recirculation mode filters air before returning it indoors using carbon filters.
3. Clean, Fresh Air With No Visible Disruption The result is clean air and a kitchen free from lingering odours, with filtered air returned or expelled depending on your setup. Your kitchen design remains completely uncompromised. Overall kitchen size affects the choice of ducted versus recirculation extraction methods.

Who Integrated Hoods Are For

Ideal for:

Frequently Asked Questions

How do integrated hoods differ from traditional chimney hoods? A chimney cooker hood mounts visibly on the wall with a decorative flue, while an integrated hood hides completely within your kitchen cabinets. The result is a sleek, uninterrupted look with no silver canopy on display. Both deliver effective extraction, but integrated models are designed to blend with your kitchen units rather than stand out.

What size integrated hood do I need for my hob? Match the hood width to your hob - common sizes include 60cm and 90cm. Integrated cooker hoods have extraction rates suited for kitchen size, so a compact kitchen may only need 300–400 m³/h, while larger open-plan spaces benefit from 600–850 m³/h. Our Hoods Buying Guide breaks this down further.

Can integrated hoods be installed in existing kitchens? Yes. Built-in cooker hoods fit neatly into upper kitchen cabinets in both new-build and renovation projects. Retrofitting ducting may require some work through cabinetry or external walls, but most standard kitchen cabinets accommodate a 60cm model without major modification.

How often should I clean the grease filters? Metal grease filters should be washed periodically - typically every 4–8 weeks depending on cooking intensity. Dishwasher-safe filters make this straightforward. Carbon filters should be replaced every few months to a year if you're using recirculation mode. Wiping surfaces and control panels prevents residue build-up between deeper cleans.

Do I need ducting or can I use recirculation mode? Integrated hoods can operate in recirculation or extraction mode. Ducted extraction is more effective, venting air outside through standard 150 mm ducting. Recirculation mode uses carbon filters to clean air before returning it to the room - a practical option where external ducting isn't feasible.

What's included with purchase at Mullen Domestic? Every hood comes with grease filters, mounting hardware, and LED lighting as standard. Carbon filters for recirculation are typically sold separately. We include free local delivery across Northern Ireland, and our team is available to advise on installation requirements.
