Kitchenaid Range Hoods

KitchenAid Range Hoods at Plesser's Appliances

KitchenAid range hoods, available at Plesser's Appliances, are designed to match the brand's ranges, rangetops, and cooktops in width, styling, and finish. The lineup includes wall-mounted canopy hoods, island hoods, under-cabinet models, and downdraft ventilation across a range of capacities.

Sizing Capacity to the Cooking Surface
Hood capacity must be matched to the output of the range or rangetop below, and KitchenAid's dual-tier and commercial-style burners produce far more heat, moisture, and grease-laden air than standard residential burners. Hood width should meet or exceed the cooking surface. Ask about the recommended pairing rather than working from width alone.

Four Configurations for Four Layouts
Wall-mounted canopy hoods sit against a wall above the range with the most capture area. Island hoods mount from the ceiling and are finished on all sides. Under-cabinet models fit beneath existing uppers and preserve the storage. Downdraft rises beside the cooktop where nothing can hang overhead. The layout dictates the configuration.

Filtration, Lighting, and Controls
Removable grease filters handle capture and clean regularly, with LED lighting illuminating the cooking surface and multiple fan speeds covering simmering through high-heat searing. Baffle filters where offered are more effective and easier to maintain than mesh. Confirm filter type and lighting for your model.

Styling Matched to the Range
The hood is the second most visible appliance on a cooking wall, and a mismatched one undercuts an otherwise coordinated installation. KitchenAid hoods carry finish and styling options matched to the cooking lineup, so the pair can be specified together at order. PrintShield finish on select models resists fingerprints.

Duct Routing, Blowers, and Installation Planning
Duct diameter, run length, and elbow count all reduce delivered capacity, so design for the shortest straight route. Blower options and whether a blower ships with the hood vary — confirm what is included. Mounting height and, on high-capacity installations, make-up air requirements need settling with your builder before framing.
