Mounting your
Extractor
When the extractor is to be installed
above an electric hob, the minimum
distance between the hob and extractor
must exceed 600mm (650mm is
recommended).
When the extractor is to be installed
above a gas hob, the minimum distance
between the hob and extractor
must exceed 700mm (750mm is
recommended).
If the instructions provided with your
gas hob state that the required distance
between the hob and extractor must
be greater than 700mm, then that is the
distance that should be observed; this
is a legal requirement and may lead to
your hob being disconnected from the
gas supply and the installation being
reported under RIDDOR (the height
should be measured from the top of the
burners).
