From what I have read most times you pull not push air. Personally for bulb cooling with a hood I would use both push / pull to keep it cool.

a quick fan question

how do you do both pull/push with 2 fans ?

 

[qbert]

If you are running a single ventilation line then push through the hood. If you separately ventilate the light, it doesn't matter nearly as much.

Why? Because hood's have lots of small air leaks. If you pull through the hood you will suck out smelly air after the filter (unless you're pushing through the filter at the end of the vent run).

You could seal the hood, but that's a big pain. You will want to be able to get in and out for cleaning and bulb replacement.
