This Omega National Modern Tapered wall hood is a 42-inch decorative wood shell in red oak, designed to bring the warmth of real wood above the cooktop and blend into surrounding cabinetry. It is a hood shell, not a ventilation unit: it provides the architectural form, and a ventilation insert does the air-moving work.
The Modern Tapered profile draws the eye upward and gives the hood a lighter visual weight than a boxy or mantel-style design. That geometry suits kitchens with clean lines, flat-front cabinetry, or a Shaker aesthetic where the goal is architectural interest without ornament. At 42 inches wide, this shell covers a wider-than-standard cooktop run and fills the wall between upper cabinets without crowding the space. Because it is the outer enclosure, it can be spec'd independently of the ventilator, letting the designer or installer select the blower to match the BTU load and the space while matching the woodwork to the room.
Red oak is a common choice when the cabinet box or door species is also oak, since matching grain character across the hood and the boxes gives the kitchen a consistent material story. The open grain of red oak accepts stain evenly but reads differently under a clear or lightly pigmented finish than a close-grained species like maple would. The shell ships unfinished, which means the finishing step happens on site or in the shop after delivery. That allows the finisher to pull a stain sample from the cabinet doors and match directly, rather than working from a factory color that may drift slightly from the installed doors. The Broan-compatible liner is included and ships with the shell.
This shell is the right specification when the project calls for a real-wood hood that the finish carpenter or cabinet shop can stain to match the rest of the kitchen. Designers working on a remodel or new construction can specify it alongside the ventilation insert as separate line items, sizing the blower to the cooktop independently. Cabinet shops ordering for multiple jobs can finish the shell to match the door batch rather than accepting a factory color. For a homeowner finishing their own kitchen, the ready-to-finish construction means the hood color is fully in their hands.
No. This is the decorative wood shell. The Broan-compatible liner is included and accepts a Broan ventilation insert, which is selected and ordered separately to match the cooktop and ventilation requirements of the space.
Yes. The shell ships unfinished and can be painted or stained. Red oak's open grain will show through lighter paint sheens; a primer-sealer and a filled finish coat produce a smoother painted result.
42 inches wide, 30 inches tall, and 19 inches deep.
