Mounting your extractor
When the extractor is to be installed above an electric, ceramic
or induction hob, the minimum distance between the hob and
extractor must be at least 450mm.
When the extractor is to be installed above a gas hob, the minimum
distance between the hob and extractor must be at least 650mm.
If the instructions provided with your gas hob state that the
required distance between the hob and extractor must be greater
than 650mm, then that is the distance that should be observed;
this is a legal requirement and may lead to your hob being
disconnected from the gas supply and the installation being
reported under RIDDOR (The height should be measured from the
top of the burners).
IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY INSTRUCTIONS SUPPLIED WITH
THE GAS HOB, THE MINIMUM
DISTANCE BETWEEN THE HOB AND
EXTRACTOR MUST BE AT LEAST
650mm.
The width of any hob must not be
greater than the width of the extractor
installed above it.
