A range hood is a kitchen ventilation appliance installed above the stove to extract cooking smoke, grease, heat, and odors. It helps improve indoor air quality and keeps your kitchen cleaner and more comfortable.

Both are ventilation tools, but a range hood is made specifically for kitchen use—targeting smoke, grease, and heat. Extractors are more general-purpose and often used in bathrooms or laundry areas to reduce humidity.

A perfectly crafted kitchen range hood can last up to 10 to 15 years, depending on how frequently you cook and how well you maintain it. Grease buildup, poor ventilation, or lack of regular cleaning can all shorten its lifespan. High-quality range hoods, especially those equipped with durable motors and stainless steel construction, typically have a longer lifespan.

If you're looking for a long-term upgrade, consider investing in a high-end range hood from Arspura, which features advanced technology and a low-maintenance design, offering superior performance and enhanced durability.

We recommend using a 6-inch (150 mm) round duct or a compatible rectangular equivalent for optimal airflow and quiet operation.

For best performance, install the hood 690–740 mm (27.17"–29.13") above the cooking surface. Installing outside this range may affect suction efficiency.

Ducted hoods provide stronger airflow and are ideal for frequent or high-heat cooking. Ductless models are easier to install and more flexible for apartments or interior kitchens without vents. Choose based on your kitchen layout and ventilation needs.

It depends on kitchen size, layout, and cooking habits. Smaller kitchens may benefit from under-cabinet models, while open layouts are better suited for island or wall-mounted hoods. Arspura offers a variety of designs to match every space.

Your hood should be at least as wide as your cooktop—typically 30" or 36". For heavy-duty cooking, a hood up to 6" wider can offer better coverage.

Installation can range from $200 to over $1,000 depending on the model, kitchen setup, and ductwork. Ductless models are generally simpler and more budget-friendly to install.

Yes. Arspura offers:

• Basic Installation – $199
• Full Installation – $299 (includes removal of the existing hood). 

We also provide clear DIY instructions for self-installation.

Most installations take between 1 and 3 hours, depending on whether the unit is ducted or ductless and your kitchen configuration.

Yes. Our hoods are designed for DIY-friendly installation. However, we recommend using certified professionals for proper mounting and warranty protection.

CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) measures how much air a range hood can move in one minute. While a higher CFM rating sounds better, it doesn't always mean better performance. What truly matters is how efficiently the hood captures and removes smoke, grease, and odors, which also depends on air speed, hood design, and kitchen layout. 

Instead of focusing on numbers alone, choose the right kitchen range hood based on your cooking habits. For heavy frying or frequent cooking, a higher CFM (around 500+) may help. For light daily use, a moderate CFM with strong airspeed and good filtration is often more effective.

Arspura IQV hoods are engineered with high-efficiency airflow and ultra-fast capture speed—so you get real performance, not just big numbers.

Wipe the surface regularly with a damp cloth, clean the oil cup as needed, and check for blockages. There’s no need to clean internal parts thanks to the sealed, filterless design.

Arspura ships to the 48 contiguous U.S. states. Currently, we do not ship to Alaska, Hawaii, or U.S. territories.

No. Arspura hoods are engineered for quiet operation even at high speeds. Advanced motor systems minimize noise without sacrificing power.

We offer a 45-day return window. Returns due to damage or defects are free. A 10% restocking fee applies to unopened returns; 20% (up to $200) if the packaging is damaged.

We ship most online orders within 1 business day. Delivery usually takes 5–7 business days. Local dealer delivery may vary but typically arrives within 2–3 days.

All Arspura range hoods include a 5-year warranty for the full unit and a 1-year warranty for consumable parts like lights. We stand behind the quality of our products.

Yes. Our 13 m/s air speed is specifically engineered to handle the intense smoke and grease generated by wok cooking, stir-frying, and high-heat searing better than standard US brands.

Yes. All Arspura models are ducted range hoods. Venting outside is the only effective way to remove heat, moisture, and PM2.5 pollutants from your kitchen.

CFM measures how much air moves; Air Speed measures how fast it moves. Arspura focuses on speed (13 m/s) to capture smoke before it spreads, offering superior containment for gas stoves.

It's simple. Since there are no mesh filters to scrub, you only need to wipe the glass panel daily and periodically empty the oil collection tray (hand wash recommended).

Standard units fit 8-9 ft ceilings. For higher ceilings, we offer specific chimney extension covers. Please check the product specifications to see if your installation requires an extension kit.
