A kitchen chimney, also known as a smoke exhaust hood or kitchen hood, is a ventilation device installed above a stove or stove in the kitchen. Its main function is to remove smoke, odours, grease, and heat generated during cooking and direct them outside the kitchen, improving indoor air quality and maintaining a comfortable cooking environment. A kitchen chimney typically includes a canopy or range hood, a fan or blower, and a duct system that carries the air outdoors or circulates it through filters.
