Island hoods hang from the ceiling over a cooktop with no wall behind it. With air moving in from every side, an island hood has more trouble catching smoke than a wall hood of the same airflow, so a little more airflow and a hood wider than the cooktop both help. They are heavy, so plan for solid blocking in the ceiling.
