Fontenay model

A. For the Fontenay model, choose an overhead canopy with the following optimum specifications: 63″ wide (67″ for Fontenay  island applications) x 24-27″deep.

B. Blowers should be rated at 900-1300 cfm, with 10″ round ducting, or equivalent. Size should be measured by the style and quantity of cooking, i.e. Asian stir-fry (vaporized grease) requires higher performance blowers than French reduction (steam). C. Hood can be mounted to wall or ceiling 30″-36″ (from hood base) off cooktop. Check with your hood company for specific requirements.

Please see here for more detailed ventilation guidelines.

Art Culinaire/Lacanche USA now distributes Lacanche hoods.  For other recommended hood dealers, please see the list here.
