That’s pretty cool

I have a real problem with this test, as anyone who understands how hoods work knows there is a big difference in sound depending on the ducting. You test a ventahood that was twice as big and with twice as much ducting than the other competing brands. This is not apples to apples test. I’m not sure of what use this is. The ventahood model tested there had two 10” round ducts exiting allowing air to move freely out of the hood which would make it far quieter than the others regardless of whether magic lung system works or not.

Ventahood sure seemed a lot louder in the showroom.

Too bad they do not come in large capacity.

I suspect that this video was paid for by Vent-a-Hood. Not accurate and it's misleading. Normal speech is BETWEEN the range of 60-70 dB - NOT 70 db. Besides, I question on why the hoods are not configured as they would be installed, elevated to the proper height in an average kitchen space and surrounding materials. Additionally, you'll notice that the Vent-a-Hood has two flues instead of one, as shown for the rest of the models.

All the hoods are in the same environment (rug, walls, etc). So the rug is irrelevant in terms of comparisons between hoods. It becomes relevant if you are comparing sound in an actual installed kitchen environment. But this experiment is comparing the sound between hoods at it's highest setting.

Are we sure this test is correct? the hood is place on an area rug and it's known that the area rug or curtains absorb sound. so the test result may be lower than it's installed on the wall. right????

i have had a Vent-a-Hood since last August. i love it excellent performance and quiet. it is well worth it to spend a bit more to have the best! dealer and installer were both excellent also.
