Not sure if I have useful advice, other than to definitely do it. I think we have a professional level overhead hood (it has 4 fan switches, 2 of which have dual speed settings). We used to cook Indian food, which is why we got it when we did the kitchen remodel. Now we do mostly American food. Definitely eliminates the odors (and smoke is not an issue either) and even controls odors from the oven about 4 feet away. Also, we had to do a lot of surgery to the house to run the duct. It's pretty long, and we cut through a beam (but it was not structural). Going on 15 years now with no issues we're aware of. Very happy with the performance.
