An extractor hood or range hood is a device containing a mechanical fan that hangs above the stove or cooktop in the kitchen. It removes airborne grease, combustion products, smoke, odors, heat, and steam from the air by evacuation of the air and filtration.
Famous quotes containing the word hood:
“No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees,
No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds—November!”
—Thomas Hood (1799–1845)
