Steve’s Year-Round Wisconsin Kitchen Dream Come True

Hood: PLJW 105 T2

“We always dreamed of having an outdoor kitchen. Living in Wisconsin, we couldn’t justify it when raising our family. As our children moved out, we could now justify it. We are in the backyard virtually daily in the nice weather. The covered area where our grill is can be used whether rain, snow, or sun! We love it, this wouldn’t be possible without a good vent hood. Proline was our choice!” 

What a delightful kitchen! This space truly embodies a rustic charm that’s both welcoming and inspiring. The stainless steel range hood sits proudly above the grill, blending modernity with the traditional wood and stone elements. It’s a testament to how design can bring together different textures to create a cohesive and functional space. The wood beams overhead evoke a sense of strength and history, while the natural stone wall adds texture and depth. This kitchen doesn’t just tell a story, it invites you to be a part of it—whether you’re flipping pancakes or simply enjoying the ambience with a cup of coffee.

Joshua’s Ultimate Grilling Paradise: Powered by Proline

Hood: PLJW 105

“This outdoor kitchen including a 36″ LP gas griddle, a 42″ LP gas grill and a Large green egg was designed and centered around Proline’s PLJW 105.60T2 (2,000 CFM) hood. With various settings, it’s easy to select the right setting for the job at hand. If we’re hosting friends and family on a holiday or big game day we may need all 2,000 CFM to control the smoke which all 3 cooking surfaces put off. The hood not only looks amazing but its ease and functionality really complete this outdoor kitchen area. Townsley Construction out of Central Florida did a great job building this for us!”

What a great blend functionality with the serene backdrop of nature, providing an ideal setting for al fresco dining. The range hood, with its sleek design, is subtly imposing yet integrates smoothly with the hexagonal backsplash, enhancing the outdoor culinary experience. The combination of natural wood furniture and contemporary appliances fosters a convivial atmosphere, perfect for poolside gatherings or intimate family meals in the open air. It’s a space that promises the creation of memories as much as meals, a true testament to thoughtful exterior design.

Beyond the Backorder: Shawn’s Custom Kitchen Solution

Hood: PLJI 102

“Custom-built outdoor kitchen and cabinets for our screened-in back porch. Ordered a range hood and made our own chimney as a custom shiplap design with a matching paint scheme to house to finish off the kitchen.”

*We don’t recommend placing a Green Egg under one of our current model hoods

Looking at this space, the first thing I’m struck by is how the range hood becomes a focal point, marrying functionality with aesthetics. It’s an inviting scene, with the warmth of natural light spilling in, complementing the earthy tones of the cabinetry. The layout invites social cooking experiences, and I can just imagine laughter mixing with the sizzle of the cooking. There’s a lovely balance here; it feels like a space that’s not only designed to look good but to be lived in and enjoyed.

Gina’s Breath of Fresh Air: Her Proline Transformation

Hood: PLFW 755

“My outdoor kitchen is the place to be since I purchased the Proline range hood. I swear there was an invisible wall that would smoke the area so badly you’d have to run inside to breathe. Since we installed the Proline Range hood, no need to run in, the air is clear. The functionality and quality is fantastic! I’m loving it!”

This patio kitchenette exudes a sense of sophisticated relaxation. The modern range hood sits as a centerpiece of efficiency, promising delightful outdoor feasts. Below, the built-in grill and cabinetry offer a sleek and unobtrusive presence, harmoniously balancing the leisure of the plush seating. The wicker chairs with crisp white cushions, accented by navy pillows, invite one to sit back and savor the ambiance of open-air luxury. The paving ties the space together with its earthy tones, grounding the modern amenities in nature’s embrace. It’s a nook that combines the comforts of indoor living with the refreshing touch of the outdoors, perfect for both unwinding and entertaining.

Quiet Power, Bright Nights: Valarie’s Outdoor Kitchen Masterpiece

Hood: ProSI

“I built this beautiful outdoor kitchen for my wife Valarie. I used two of your Proline 36” Island range hoods to complete it. I placed one over the main gas grill and one over the flat-top grill. I absolutely Love these hoods and they light up the areas for evening cooking beautifully. The exhaust fans are powerful and quiet and do a fantastic job! I recommend your range hoods to all my friends and family. We love to entertain and these are a great addition to our outdoor kitchen!!”

This outdoor kitchen boasts a warm, inviting ambiance with its rich wooden ceiling and complementary cabinetry, creating a cohesive look. The twin range hoods add symmetry and sophistication, while the array of stainless steel appliances suggests a haven for the avid grill master. It’s a space where functionality meets rustic charm, designed for the seamless transition from cooking to leisure, encouraging gatherings that linger long into the evening under the gentle breeze of the ceiling fan.

Cabo Dreams to Backyard Reality

Hood: ProSW

“We added a pool and outdoor kitchen in 2020 trying to recreate a vacation to Cabo. We were advised to make sure we installed a Commercial Grade hood ventilation system for the cooking area. After researching MANY different manufacturers, we selected your product due to performance reviews, specifications, and price. We specifically purchased two 36” 1800 CFM Ducted Wall Mount Range Hoods by Proline Range Hoods. Our outdoor living area has been a work in progress with our Proline Range Hoods being a focal point, as we believe the photos indicate. We are very pleased with our choice and the results!”

As one steps into this expansive outdoor area, it’s clear that it’s crafted for leisure and luxury in equal measure. The dark, rich tones of the wooden cabinetry and ceiling beams present a striking contrast against the lighter walls, cultivating a sense of classic elegance that is both grounding and uplifting. The dual range hoods, with their commanding presence, suggest that this space is more than capable of catering to large gatherings, making it as much a social hub as a culinary one.

The ornate tile backsplash behind the grills infuses the area with a Mediterranean flair, creating visual intrigue and drawing the eye. This decorative element not only elevates the space’s style quotient but also serves as a conversation starter, reflecting the homeowner’s taste for design that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

Comfort is clearly a priority, evidenced by the plush seating arrangement that invites guests to sink in and relax. Whether it’s watching a game on the television or engaging in post-dinner conversation, the space is designed to accommodate and encourage extended enjoyment.

The integration of modern appliances with timeless design elements is seamless. There’s a balance here between the traditional and the contemporary, achieved without compromising on the convenience that modern technology offers. For example, the ceiling fans ensure a cool breeze on warmer days, enhancing comfort without detracting from the overall ambiance.

This is more than just an outdoor kitchen; it’s an extension of the home. It bridges indoor sophistication with the casual charm of outdoor living. The space is a testament to thoughtfulness in design, from the layout to the choice of materials and finishes. It speaks to those who appreciate the finer things in life without losing touch with the simple pleasures – like a meal cooked under the open sky, surrounded by friends and family.
