Why Kitchens Need Ventilation.
Fresh salmon fillets are reason enough. But that's really just a start. Because cooking smoke and greasy build-up are more than unpleasant. They're unhealthy. In fact, cooking churns out airborne contaminants like nothing else in the home can. This concentration of contaminants requires effective ventilation. That's where Broan comes in. As the residential ventilation leader, Broan offers more range hood kitchen ventilating solutions than anyone.
From high-performance ducted models, to the most effective non-ducted units ever made. And they're all built to Broan's demanding quality standards.
So you can count on them to help keep your kitchen cleaner for years to come. Built-in lighting means you can count on your Broan range hood to keep your kitchen brighter. Some units even include a convenient nightlight feature.
There really is a difference with Broan. It's in the details.
Convenient options help assure a custom fit. For the unique demands of cooktops in islands and peninsulas.
Ultimate styling complements virtually every cooktop style. Mounts behind most built-in cooktops in island, peninsula and wall mount installations. The unit mounts flush with the cooktop when not in operation, and is activated by light pressure on the cover which automatically raises a motor driven air intake chimney 7" above the cooktop. The elevated chimney enables smoke and vapor to be captured at the top of most cooking vessels. A touch on the top of the chimney retracts it to its down position. Washable aluminum filters. Fits 3 1/4" x 10" duct.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Chrissy A total worthless product
Purchased this downdraft to replace the GE monogram downdraft that was 16 years old. This Broan downdraft does not suck the smoke in and set off my alarm every single time I fried or cooked anything that has a little smoke like frying chicken wings or burger. Called manufacturer and they also agreed that this downdraft is very weak in sucking air. I ended up open the window and doors every night, and disable the smoke alarm that is located near the kitchen.

Poor packaging, was all scratched up when it arrived. Very loud when on, would get a external blower with this unit.
If your replacing a existing unit, the down draft is off center.
