Are you familiar with downdraft vents? Include you knowledge in our defintion by clicking the EasyEdit button.
Instead of being placed over the cooking area, a downdraft blower is built into a base cabinet. It exhausts air by pulling it down through vents placed on the sides and back of the cooktop or you can buy a separate blower with a vent that raises up behind the cooktop while you’re cooking and then lowers out of view when you’re done. This vent is great for cleaning air around island cooktops, where a hood wouldn’t work. They also enhance decorating possibilities by providing a more subtle ventilation method than an overhanging hood.
