Dee W on May 23, 2013Yes, and I really like it; are you thinking of putting one in? The only drawback is the blades need extra cleaning.Helpful Reply

SLS Construction & Building Solutions LLC on May 23, 2013I used to - the only catch is the air flow can disturb the gas stove burners - so we simply turned it off when cooking that way. (Can I ask why you are leaning towards one?) @Dee W - I never really had that issue, do you run your exhaust fan when cooking? Another trick if you do & you have a standard hood / oven - try cooking more on the back burners @Shirley R - anything is possible, recheck all your connections & if all else fails you might just have to call in a electrician or maybe try with a new fanHelpful Reply

Becky P on May 23, 2013I actually have 2 fans in the kitchen. The light over the table isn't centered, so the only choice I had was a fan w/lights. I don't use the fan over the table if we are eating, it will cool off the food. I can't imagine the kitchen without one.Helpful Reply

Dee W on May 26, 2013@SLS Construction Solutions My exhaust fan is too short to cover my stove and I only have one working back burner. lol The other reason is I have 2 opposing windows allowing pollen and such indoors plus a door to the outside so there is all types of stuff in the air besides whatever is cooking.Helpful Reply

DebbieF on Jan 05, 2016I used to have one in the kitchen, it was off center closer to the stove than I wanted. Hardly ever used the lights all they did was collect dust. We removed the fan and lights and put up a ceiling light instead.Helpful Reply
