Good suction power for a range hood is between 300 to 600 CFM (cubic feet per minute) for standard home cooking. For heavy frying, grilling, or high-output ranges, 600 to 1,200 CFM is recommended. However, if you frequently cook with high heat or have a larger kitchen, you might want a range hood with a higher CFM, up to 900 or more, to ensure effective ventilation. Proper CFM ensures effective ventilation, smoke removal, and odor control based on your cooking habits.
