Meet Vent-A-Hood, The Global Leader In Kitchen Hood Vents

(0 comments)

Nothing illustrates a brand’s place in its industry than when its marquee model becomes synonymous with every model on the market. Vent-A-Hood's lineup of kitchen hood vents has become the de facto term for all range hood and island hood vents, residential and commercial. Learn more about the company that has led the kitchen ventilation industry for decades. 

The Magic Lung® Blower System

Vent-A-Hood’s position as the top kitchen hood company is built on its patented Magic Lung® blower system. Instead of relying on mesh or baffle filters to trap grease, this technology uses centrifugal filtration to retain grease inside the blower. The grease liquifies and collects in a removable tray.

The system has several advantages over comparable kitchen hood vents, including:

  • No filter: Because the grease collects in the tray, a mesh filter is unnecessary. This significantly reduces the need to clean the blower. 
  • Noise reduction: Pulling air through a filter requires a strong fan motor. When combined with the sound of restricted air, the motor makes other range hoods much louder than even entry-level Vent-A-Hood models. 
  • Fire safety: The centrifugal design prevents grease from entering the blower’s ductwork, lowering fire risk. 
  • Easy-to-clean: Vent-A-Hoods are very easy to clean. Remove the blower housing plate, wash it by hand or in the dishwasher, and replace the tray.

Popular Vent-A-Hood Kitchen Products

Vent-A-Hood offers several variations of its range hoods, with specific models designed to meet the needs of unique spaces and applications. Today, they make under-cabinent hoods, wall-mounted hoods, island hoods, and liner inserts. It’s one of our most popular home kitchen appliance brands. 

What Are Vent-A-Hood Inserts?

Linear inserts allow homeowners to create a custom Vent-A-Hood. They’re comprised of the functional components of the system and can be built into a custom hood canopy, usually using Vent-A-Hood parts. 

The Premium Kitchen Hood Range

Vent-A-Hood is usually considered a premium kitchen brand, much like Bertazzoni, and has earned a stellar reputation for durability, quality construction, and ease of use. Vent-A-Hood prices vary based on the model, dimensions, and materials, with premium residential kitchen hood vents starting around $800. Commercial products are typically more expensive. 

What Is the Warranty On Vent-A-Hood?

Most Vent-A-Hood products come with a five-year warranty, although it’s worth checking your exact model. Note that Vent-A-Hood’s warranty does not cover blower wheel damage, damage from faulty installation, incidental damage, or damage during shipping. As Traverse City’s Vent-A-Hood dealer, we’ll handle your warranty claim - just get in touch.
