Default Extractor fan ducting 125mm to 100mm

Do you really want to do this? The kit will expect 125mm and by cutting that
down to 100mm you will be severely restricting the airflow. I have just
taken delivery of a new cooker hood with 125mm outlet and while I agree that
it's more difficult to get 125mm ducting stuff than 100mm - especially with
the ducting in aluminium which I wanted because it's going to be visible -
it is possible. Try:


It depends.
IIRC, the restriction is about 2.5 times for 100mm pipe.
So if you'r using 1m of 100mm pipe, it'll be similar to 2.5m of 125mm
pipe.
