I had purchased hafele hob 10 months back... I got it serviced 6 times... Now i requested for replacement with new one... Still they have not attended my request...

Seems weird not to incorporate it into the design -- I'm all about having things "look intentional" rather than working around them later. Like could the island have connected to this, rather than extending past it? or been L-shaped, so there's room for an extra stool, and also a wall cabinet? Anyway, hard to discuss that in the abstract without kitchen plans. I'm with miacometlady's original advice to not worry about it right now, and decide how to deal with it once the bulk of your kitchen is in place. You might find that you hardly notice it, with all the beautiful new finishes, or it might seem obvious to put some stainless or glass shelves there, or maybe simple is best and one simple hanging picture does the job. Don't stress about it until After. :)

The distance between chimney and hob needs to be 26"-30" : 65cm-80cm. placing it above the window, suction power is reduced, placing it in middle of the window, will make the window ineffective. Island chimneys are best suited to be positioned in middle of the room, the duct running through false ceiling. also they fall in the expensive category. it is best that you move the hob position to side of the window, or totally to the other side and do chimney core cutting there.

Hi, please find some references from our work. You could connect with me for further assistance on the design. Regards Ar. Manjusha Adhav - Kamble
