vent hood

Stovetop air cleaner

A vent hood is an appliance mounted above a stove or cooktop to remove smoke, steam, grease, and cooking odors from the air.

It contains a fan that pulls air up through filters and either exhausts it outside or recirculates it after filtering.

Also called a range hood or exhaust hood: The vent hood kept the kitchen from filling with smoke.
