Viking Professional 5 Series Wall Hood

Yes, this model is designed for ducted installation. You will need to ensure your kitchen setup supports external venting to properly exhaust smoke and odors.

The heat lamps are a separate feature designed specifically to keep food warm on your cooktop while you finish preparing other dishes. They operate independently of the dimmable LED task lighting, which is intended for visibility while cooking.

The integrated heat sensor monitors the temperature at the cooktop and automatically adjusts the ventilation speed to match the intensity of your cooking. This ensures optimal air quality without you needing to manually toggle the fan settings.

No, the commercial-type baffle filters on this unit are not dishwasher safe. They should be cleaned by hand using warm, soapy water to maintain their effectiveness and appearance.

This wall-mount hood measures 36 inches wide, 18 inches high, and 12 inches deep. Be sure to measure your available wall space and verify your ceiling height before installation.

Yes, while the heat sensor provides automatic adjustments, you retain full control over the hood's operation. The illuminated, retractable knobs allow you to manually adjust the fan speed and lighting settings as needed.
