Vent-A-Hood Wall Mount Hood Insert

This unit is designed for custom cabinetry integration, but you must ensure your enclosure can accommodate the specific dimensions of 52.37 inches wide by 22.5 inches deep. It is best to have your cabinet maker review the installation specifications before finalizing your hood design.

A 1200 CFM blower is quite robust and is typically intended for professional-style ranges or heavy-duty cooking setups. If you do not frequently use high-heat cooking methods like searing or wok frying, you may find this capacity exceeds your daily ventilation needs.

This model operates at 6.6 Sones. While Vent-A-Hood's patented blower system is engineered to be efficient, 6.6 Sones is audible—roughly equivalent to the sound of a normal conversation or a quiet office environment—so you will notice the fan when it is running at its highest setting.

Yes, this hood requires a 12-inch diameter duct. Because this is a high-capacity unit, using a smaller duct size will restrict airflow, reduce efficiency, and likely increase noise levels, so it is critical to install the correct ducting.

The filters are designed for convenience and are dishwasher-safe. You can simply remove them and run them through a standard cycle, making regular maintenance straightforward.

The insert is designed to be secured within your custom cabinetry structure. Because every custom enclosure is built differently, you will likely need to source specific fasteners or framing support based on the material and construction of your custom hood surround.
