Range Hoods 101

How can range hood inserts improve your kitchen design?

What is a range hood insert?

A range hood insert is an appliance that lifts into your custom hood structure. Range hood inserts can lift into both wall mounted and island range hoods. They are a subtle, beautiful addition to your kitchen – and they keep it clean too!

Many kitchens have an extremely unique design. While in the past decades making custom features for your kitchen was very hard and expensive, the internet and technology advancement made possible to create incredible designs for cheaper and faster. Because of that, many kitchens come with a case ready to add a range hood that conceals it, and make it more inline with the design. After all, it’s not every design of range hood that will fit every kitchen.

That is why the range hood insert (also known as range hood liner) was invented.
