Maytag Range Hoods

Maytag Range Hoods at Plesser's Appliances

Maytag range hoods, available at Plesser's Appliances, handle cooktop ventilation in under-cabinet and wall-mounted canopy configurations, built to the same durability standard as the brand's cooking equipment. Offered in fingerprint-resistant stainless steel and finishes that coordinate with Maytag ranges and cooktops.

Sizing Capacity to the Cooking Surface
Hood capacity should be matched to the output of the range or cooktop below, and hood width should meet or exceed the cooking surface so capture extends past the outer burners. Undersized ventilation shows up as lingering odor and grease film on cabinets. Ask about recommended capacity for your specific cooking surface rather than working from width alone.

Under-Cabinet and Wall-Mounted Options
Under-cabinet hoods mount beneath an existing upper cabinet, preserving the storage above and keeping a low profile. Wall-mounted canopy hoods replace the cabinet entirely for more capture area and higher capacity. The layout and how much storage you can give up determine which fits.

Filtration and Lighting
Removable grease filters clean in a dishwasher on many models, and LED or halogen lighting illuminates the cooking surface at multiple levels on select configurations. Multiple fan speeds handle everything from simmering to high-heat searing. Confirm filter type and lighting for your model.

Ducted or Recirculating
Hoods can typically be configured to duct externally through the wall or roof, or to recirculate through a charcoal filter where ducting is not possible — useful in a condo or on an interior wall, though ducted always performs better. Confirm which configurations your model supports and what the recirculating kit requires.

Duct Routing, Height, and Installation Planning
Duct diameter, run length, and elbow count all reduce delivered capacity, so design for the shortest straight route out. Mounting height above the cooking surface and clearance requirements need to be settled before installation. Talk to the team at Plesser's Appliances about capacity, duct routing, and mounting requirements alongside your range decision.
