Overview
No ductwork required is the point of the Broan-NuTone BUEZ124WW, a 24-inch under-cabinet range hood with a 2-speed fan, incandescent lighting and a replaceable charcoal filter.
Because it's non-vented, it relies on a replaceable charcoal filter rather than an exhaust duct, which is the tradeoff to understand going in: it manages smoke and steam rather than removing it from the house entirely. Several reviewers specifically chose it as a lower-cost, easier-to-install replacement for a broken microwave range hood combo, since it only needs mounting and wiring, not ducting to the roof.
- 24-inch ductless under-cabinet design
- 2 fan speeds with separate light switch
- Replaceable charcoal filter
- EZ1 two-bracket install system
Who it's for
Works well for kitchens without existing ductwork that need a straightforward fan-and-light unit over the stove, especially as a replacement for an old hood. Less suited to anyone wanting strong exhaust power that actually removes smoke and odor from the kitchen, since a ductless filter unit can't do that.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Reviewers consistently describe installation as quick, several completing it in 20 to 25 minutes including unpacking and wiring, and say the fan and lights work as expected while updating a kitchen's look. The main complaint is that suction is adequate rather than powerful, and that a light bulb cover isn't included, leaving the bulb and mesh filter visible underneath the hood.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Installs without existing ductwork
- Two-bracket system makes solo installation manageable
- Replaces old plug-in hoods cleanly
- Suction is light, not strong venting power
- No light bulb cover included
- Bulb sold separately
Performance notes
Two fan speeds and a separate light switch let you run just the light or add airflow as needed, with the incandescent bulb providing up to 75 watts of illumination. Because there's no duct, the fan draws air through a replaceable charcoal filter rather than venting it outside, which reviewers describe as adequate for light steam but not strong suction. Installation uses a two-bracket EZ1 system that holds the hood in place while wiring is finished, which multiple reviewers completed in 20 to 25 minutes.

How long does installation take?

Does it include a light bulb and cover?
The bulb is sold separately, and at least one reviewer noted no light cover was included, leaving the bulb exposed under a mesh grille.
