GE Venting Systems & Hoods

Telescopic Downdraft System

The telescopic downdraft is a venting alternative to a range hood installed over a cooktop. When not in use the downdraft vent retracts down into the cabinet, leaving only a thin hinged cover showing. When needed it rises to a level about even with the top of most pans.

This type of vent is ideal when the cooktop is installed in a kitchen island or peninsula, and can be installed behind most gas sealed burner cooktops and electric smoothtop and induction cooktops.

Slide-Out Range Hood

The slide-out hood is a venting alternative to a typical range hood installed over a cooktop. When not in use this kitchen hood slides back nearly flush with the front of the cabinet, leaving only a thin, 1-inch strip visible. When cooking, pull it forward and turn it on. It even has a cooktop lamp.

These kitchen hoods are preferred by many homeowners for their lack of visual impact on the kitchen design.

Standard Range Hood

The typical range hood as supplied by many builders removes heat, smoke and odor from the kitchen, with venting performance from 160 CFM to nearly 400 CFM. The blower may have 2 to 4 speeds and variable lighting levels.

Standard hoods are also available in a non-vented version. These hoods are not vented to the outdoors. Instead the cooking odors and grease are captured, filtered and re-circulated back into the kitchen.
