Rangehoods

Robam rangehoods are built for kitchens where the cooking gets serious. If a wok session has ever set off your smoke alarm or left the house smelling like dinner for a day, your rangehood wasn't built for the heat. Robam engineers its rangehoods around high-heat, high-smoke cooking such as stir-frying, searing and deep frying, with extraction reaching above 2400 m³/hr on the most powerful models.

Don't assume you have to trade power for fit. The range covers canopy, integrated, undermount and side-suction rangehoods in 60cm, 75cm and 90cm widths. Every model can be installed ducted, and most can also run recirculating. You can match a Robam rangehood to your cooktop and cabinetry without dropping to a weaker unit.

Not sure where to start? Compare ducted rangehoods and recirculating rangehoods, or browse gas cooktops and induction cooktops to pair with your new hood.

Buying Guide

Airflow — How Much Suction Do You Actually Need?

Airflow, measured in m³/hr, is the biggest factor in how well a rangehood clears smoke, steam and grease. Robam's range falls into three bands:

  • Under 2000 m³/hr suits lighter, lower-heat cooking.
  • 2000–2400 m³/hr covers the high-suction band most households need.
  • Above 2400 m³/hr is built for frequent wok cooking and heavy smoke.

If high-heat cooking happens most nights in your kitchen, filter by airflow rate above and shortlist the top band first.

Ducted vs Recirculating — Which Installation Suits Your Kitchen?

Ducted rangehoods vent smoke and odours straight outside through ducting, and they're the more effective option where your layout allows it. Recirculating rangehoods filter the air and return it to the room. That makes them the practical choice for apartments, mid-floor kitchens and renovations without a route to an exterior wall. Every Robam rangehood in this collection supports ducted installation, and most also support recirculating.

Configuration — Canopy, Integrated, Undermount or Side-Suction?

The right choice depends on your cabinetry and whether you want the rangehood seen or hidden.

Sizing — 90cm, 75cm or 60cm Rangehood?

Your rangehood should be at least as wide as your cooktop, and ideally slightly wider, so it captures the full spread of smoke and steam. A 90cm rangehood suits a full-width 90cm gas or induction cooktop. A 60cm rangehood pairs with smaller cooktops and compact kitchens. The 90cm range is Robam's largest, covering canopy, integrated and side-suction styles.

Filter Maintenance — Keeping Suction at Full Strength

Grease filters clog over time, and a clogged filter cuts suction no matter how powerful the motor is. Clean your filters regularly. On recirculating installs, replace the carbon filter at the interval in your model's manual. Genuine replacement filters are in rangehood accessories.

Finish — Matching Your Kitchen

Robam rangehoods come in Glossy Black, Glossy White, Matte Grey and Matte Black. You can match a dark, all-white or contemporary matte kitchen, or let a canopy hood stand out as the feature piece.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size rangehood do I need for a 90cm cooktop?

Your rangehood should be at least as wide as your cooktop, so a 90cm cooktop needs a 90cm rangehood at minimum. Going slightly wider gives better coverage, especially if your cooktop sits close to a wall or corner.

What's the difference between a ducted and recirculating rangehood?

Ducted rangehoods vent smoke and odours outside through ducting and are the more effective option where installation allows. Recirculating rangehoods filter the air and return it to the kitchen, which suits apartments and kitchens without a route to an exterior wall.

What airflow rate do I need for wok cooking?

If you wok cook, deep fry or sear at high heat regularly, filter this collection by airflow rate and start with models above 2400 m³/hr. For lighter everyday cooking, the 2000–2400 m³/hr band covers the high-suction range most households need.

How much clearance does a rangehood need above a gas cooktop?

Australian gas installation standards generally require at least 650mm between a gas cooktop and the rangehood above it. Electric and induction cooktops typically need at least 600mm. Always check your model's installation manual, as some models require more.

Which rangehood suits a small kitchen?

Undermount and integrated rangehoods are the most compact options, since they sit beneath or inside cabinetry rather than projecting into the room. Pair a 60cm model with a 60cm cooktop for smaller kitchens.

What is a side-suction rangehood?

A side-suction rangehood is mounted lower and closer to the cooktop than a standard hood, drawing smoke in from the side before it rises past your face. It's a strong option for high-heat cooking where smoke builds quickly.
