A range hood for a microwave includes a range-hood mount and a pair of hood slides coupled to the range-hood mount. Each hood slide includes portions that are configured to move relative to the range-hood mount between a retracted position and an extended position. The range hood further includes an expandable hood extension coupled to the pair of slides and configured to move from a collapsed configuration, when the pair of slides are arranged in the retracted position, to an expanded configuration, when the pair of slides are in the extended position.

A ventilation system includes a main housing defining an internal region and a blower contained within the internal region. The ventilation system is positioned adjacent to a room of a building structure and is configured to draw air out of the room to provide ventilation. The ventilation system further includes a grille secured relative to the main housing using an attachment feature.
