Ilve Range Hoods

Ilve Range Hoods at Plesser's Appliances

Ilve range hoods, available at Plesser's Appliances, are designed to match the brand's ranges and rangetops in width, color, and trim — which matters more here than with most hoods, since a stainless hood over a colored Ilve range undoes the whole effect.

Designed to Match the Range
The hood is the second most visible appliance on a cooking wall, and on an Ilve installation it is the piece most likely to break the composition. Ilve hoods carry the same standard and custom color palette and chrome, brass, bronze, or copper trim as the ranges, so the pair can be specified as one unit at order.

Sizing Capacity to the Cooking Surface
Hood capacity must be matched to the output of the range or rangetop below, and Ilve's brass burners produce far more heat, moisture, and grease-laden air than standard residential ones. Hood width should meet or exceed the cooking surface. Ask about recommended capacity for your specific unit rather than working from width alone.

Wall and Island Configurations
Wall-mounted canopy hoods sit against the wall above the range with the most capture area. Island hoods mount from the ceiling and are finished on all sides for a cooking surface in an island. Confirm which configurations are available in your required width and collection styling.

Filtration, Lighting, and Blowers
Removable grease filters handle capture and clean regularly, with lighting illuminating the cooking surface and multiple fan speeds. Blowers may be internal, in-line, or exterior-mounted, and moving the blower away from the hood is the most effective way to reduce kitchen noise. Confirm what blower is included versus separately ordered.

Duct Routing, Lead Time, and Installation Planning
Duct diameter, run length, and elbow count all reduce delivered capacity, so design for the shortest straight route out. Custom colors are built to order alongside the range, so order both together to keep lead times aligned. Talk to the team at Plesser's Appliances about capacity, duct routing, mounting height, finish, and lead times.
