A ceiling hood with external motor is a space-saving solution without any compromise on performance. By installing the motor externally, you can enjoy increased performance from a larger motor without losing space in your kitchen. This means you can get away with a smaller bulkhead – the boxing that houses the main body of your hood – as you don’t need to allow room for the motor. If you’ve got a compact kitchen but still need powerful ventilation, a ceiling hood with external motor is a clever way to save space while also reducing noise levels in your kitchen.

There are a couple of simple yet crucial reason as to why you should use an external motor rather than an internal motor on your cooker hood.

The answer is yes, a ceiling hood with an external motor will reduce noise in the kitchen. Having a motor that is not inside the kitchen will essentially take the noise out of the ventilation process.
