Plasterboard box, installation inside the stretch ceiling, fakes - prompted options that will help not spoil the kitchen interior with corrugated or plastic hood pipes.
Everything affects the overall impression of the interior. Including technical details that many pay little attention, especially if this is the first repair and it takes place without a designer. Corrugated or plastic tube from drawing in the kitchen and there is such a detail. Leave it into sight, of course, it is possible, but it is not aesthetic. Telling disguise options.
Note: Connecting an exhaust to general ventilation is not always possible. In detail about what cases it can be done, we told in the article.
1 Take a decrease in plasterboard
This method is suitable, even if the kitchen set is already installed. Plasterboard is good because you can make a box of any shape, to simulate with it the protrusion on the wall or continuation of a multi-level ceiling. It can also be covered with the same paint, arrange a tile or wallpaper as the walls, and make it less noticeable.How to make kilutes
- On the walls and ceiling, they put markings with a pencil where the box will pass.
- Metal guides are fixed.
- Then they are trimmed with sheets of plasterboard.
- The seams are treated with putty, the box is ground. Next, you can apply any coating.
Consider that if you have to repair a corrugated or plastic pipe from the exhaust, most likely the box will be necessary to break.
2 Get up over the upper boxes headset
If the kitchen is small, then, as a rule, the space above the upper boxes is not viewed. This means that the pipe from the drawing can be laid directly on the top cabinets, closer to the wall. Materials and installation services can be ordered from the manufacturer of the exhaust.
3 Hide behind the rawfall
Podded pipe over the upper boxes can be added the rawfall. It is usually ordered from the manufacturer of a kitchen headset, in the same color and style as the facades of the cabinets.
Such a solution has one more advantage except decorative. So the top number of cabinets visually continue under the ceiling, and this visually increase its height - relevant for small kitchens in typical houses.
To secure the panel, use the construction brakes - this is the easiest and fastest way. But providing a possible removal of this panel in case of repair work.
4 Hide in a suspended or stretch ceiling
Since when installing suspended and stretch structures, it is necessary to lower the ceiling, it is desirable that the initial height is more than 2.6 meters.
In advance, before installing the ceiling, plan the kitchen project to understand where the extract will be installed, as the headset and the technique will be mounted after. It is also important to make sure the pipe tightness that you plan to hide. And it is important to take into account that such a way is less convenient: if problems with hood arise, you have to remove the ceiling.
5 Hide the entire work area in the invisibility kitchen
You can go on, and solve the problem radically, issuing the invisible kitchen. This is especially true in studios with an open plan, where the kitchen space is viewed from all the points of the singular room. Hidden cuisine implies only a noticeable dining area, and all technical components are extracting with all communications, a stove, sink - hide behind the facades (sliding or swinging).
Invisible kitchens are especially well suitable for the classic interior, as modern equipment and refined details often argue in the classics. They can be hidden. But, in general, this solution is perfect for any style: minimalism, loft, scandy - if you want to get rid of visual noise.
