Rangehood installation

Rangehood Installation Melbourne

A rangehood is one of those kitchen appliances that works invisibly when it’s right and becomes a constant irritation when it isn’t. Too small for the cooktop, positioned poorly, ducted incorrectly — or simply not working because the previous installation was done by someone who wired it without a licence.

For homeowners in the middle of a kitchen renovation, the rangehood is often one of the last things confirmed — but the duct routing, the electrical supply, and the structural support all need to be considered early. Changing them later is expensive.

Luno Electrical installs rangehoods across Melbourne as part of kitchen renovations and as standalone replacements. We advise on duct routing options for your specific kitchen layout, confirm the electrical requirements of your chosen model, and complete the hardwired connection with a Certificate of Electrical Safety.

How It Works

  1. Tell us your rangehood model and kitchen layout — we’ll advise on duct routing options and confirm the electrical requirements.
  2. We provide a fixed price for the electrical connection, including any circuit work needed.
  3. We complete the hardwired connection, test the fan on all speeds, and issue a Certificate of Electrical Safety.

A rangehood that isn’t working properly allows cooking moisture, grease and odours to accumulate in your kitchen, damaging cabinetry and affecting air quality. In a poorly ventilated kitchen, moisture from cooking accelerates the deterioration of joinery and can contribute to mould issues.

A rangehood installed without a licensed electrician has no Certificate of Electrical Safety — meaning your appliance warranty may be void, your home insurance may not cover an incident related to the installation, and the work must be rectified before a property sale.

Your rangehood removes cooking odours and moisture effectively, operates quietly on the right speed setting, and sits flush with your overhead cabinetry exactly as designed. The duct routes cleanly to the exterior. There’s a Certificate of Electrical Safety in your documentation folder.

Commercial Kitchen Extraction

Commercial rangehood and extraction fan installation is a core part of our commercial kitchen and hospitality fit-out work. Commercial extraction systems have higher electrical demands and specific compliance requirements — we advise on the correct circuit rating for your system and ensure the installation meets Building Code requirements for commercial food preparation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Rangehood installation involves a hardwired electrical connection that must be made by a licensed electrician in Victoria. A Certificate of Electrical Safety is required on completion and is a condition of most rangehood warranties. The physical mounting can be done by a cabinet maker, but the wiring connection requires a licensed electrician.
A ducted rangehood extracts air to the outside through ductwork — far more effective at removing heat, moisture, cooking smells and grease. A recirculating (ductless) model passes air through carbon filters and returns it to the kitchen. Ducted is the preferred option where the duct routing is achievable; recirculating is used where duct access isn't possible.
Rangehood installation (electrical connection only, assuming an existing supply point is nearby) typically costs $150–$280. New wiring from the switchboard, or a complex installation requiring co-ordination with cabinetry, will cost more. We provide a fixed price after reviewing your kitchen layout.

What our customers say

Andrew and the team installed a Tesla wall charger at my home. They did an outstanding job and went over and above to make sure everything was done professionally and worked properly. Before finding Luno I spoke to many electricians and they often hadn’t done an electric car home charger installation before and didn’t seem to know what was involved. Andrew and the team at Luno quickly put me at ease because it was clear they knew how to install electric car charging. Would highly recommend.

Andrew and Alex were very professional and friendly, they took measures to not leave mess and tidied up after themselves. They were thorough in asking if we wanted switches changed etc to look the best. We love our new fans and bathroom heating light. Thank you
