Downdraft Vent
Downdraft vents are designed a little differently than updraft vent hoods. Instead of being placed over the cooktop or range like an updraft vent hood would be, a downdraft vent is built into a base cabinet. Vents placed on the sides and back of the cooktop are used for removing the contaminated air from the kitchen. If your kitchen has an island top, this form of ventilation might work best for you. Also, the appearance is les gaudy compared to an overhanging hood. The major downfall with downdraft vents is that they can only exhaust fumes that are right next to the vent. On estimate, expect the vent to cost about $500.
