Getting a rangehood installed...

So, after many years of not having had/used a rangehood in our kitchen, we finally decided to have one installed. Which leads to the following shot...

I never realised until now how noisy these things are. It's like standing in front of jet engine, and that's standing behind a closed door on the opposite end of the room! Oh well, I guess there has to be some price to pay for eliminating steam, preventing it from condensing on the windows and walls and running down to eventually start causing damage to something.
