Bosch cooker hood dimensions: Your guide to size, height & installation.

The width of your cooker hood is the most important dimension for effective extraction. To capture steam, odours, and airborne grease efficiently:

• Match or exceed your hob width - a hood that is too narrow will struggle with outer burners.
• Consider a wider hood for induction hobs - a hood that is the same width or wider than the hob ensures reliable extraction when cooking across the cooking surface.
• Choose from Bosch' range of widths - designed to suit all common hob sizes.

Recommended hob & hood sizes:

• 60 cm hob: 60 cm or wider hood
• 80 cm hob: 80 cm or wider hood
• 90 cm hob: 90 cm or wider hood
• Other sizes available: 50 cm, 70 cm, 80 cm, 120 cm

Ensure maximum performance and fresher kitchen with the right Bosch hood dimensions.

The correct height of your cooker hood above the hob is essential for efficient extraction and safe cooking . Installing it too low or too high can compromise performance and, in the case of gas hobs, pose a safety risk.

• Install safely: position your hood at the correct height above the hob - 45 cm for electric or induction. Always follow the instructions in your Bosch hood installation manual.
• Maximise performance: too low blocks cooking space and creates safety risks. Too high reduces extraction efficiency, leaving steam and odours behind.
• Fit perfectly: choose a hood depth that covers all front burners and ensure ceiling height allows correct installation for chimney hoods.

Tip: Correct width, height and depth together ensure your Bosch cooker hood performs at its best while keeping your kitchen safe and comfortable.

Whether bold wall-mounted, discreet built-in, or elegant ceiling models, each hood delivers efficient extraction, thoughtful design, and seamless performance to suit your cooking space.

• Wall-mounted cooker hoods A striking focal point for your kitchen, these hoods attach to the wall above your hob. Available in common widths from 60 cm to 90 cm, they combine powerful extraction with iconic design. Ideal when you want a statement piece.
• Built-in cooker hoods Seamlessly blend your hood into your kitchen cabinetry for a minimalist look. Designed to fit standard cabinet widths of 50, 60, 70, and 90 cm, these hoods are perfect when you prefer a discreet, space-saving solution.
• Ceiling cooker hoods Flush-mounted into the ceiling for an elegant, unobtrusive solution. Ideal for larger kitchens or open-plan layouts, these hoods deliver effective extraction while keeping your kitchen design clean and sophisticated.?
• Venting hob Experience seamless cooking with a Bosch venting hob — removes steam and cooking odours at source through a built-in extraction module, keeping air clear as you cook without the need for a separate overhead hood.

Tip: Your kitchen style and hob location will help you decide which Bosch hood is right – whether a classic wall-mounted design, a hidden integrated model, or a sleek ceiling solution.

Getting the right size is important, but for the best performance, consider how efficiently your hood extracts air, how quietly it operates, and the ventilation system it uses.

Key considerations

• Extraction rate: ensure the hood can move enough air — ideally at least ten times your kitchen's volume per hour.
• Ducting vs recirculation: ducted hoods send air outside for maximum odour and moisture removal, while recirculating hoods filter and return air to the kitchen, ideal where external venting isn't possible.
• Noise level: Bosch hoods combine powerful extraction with exceptionally quiet operation for a peaceful cooking environment.
