A Maple Wood Hood Shell Built for Broan Ventilation

This Omega National Signature Straight wall mount range hood is a decorative maple wood shell that frames the cooktop with a clean, straight-line profile and arrives ready for a custom finish. It includes a liner matched to Broan ventilation, so the shell and the air-moving components work as a coordinated system.

Key Features

• Maple wood construction offers a tight, consistent grain that takes stain and paint evenly for a finished look that can match existing cabinetry.
• Signature Straight profile delivers a clean, contemporary silhouette suited to transitional and modern kitchens.
• 30 inches wide at a 22-7/8 inch height and 19 inch depth, sized for standard wall hood installations above a 30-inch cooktop or range.
• Broan-compatible liner included so the shell arrives ready to accept a Broan ventilation unit without a separate liner purchase.
• Wall mount position installs against the wall above the cooking surface, with the liner and ventilator handling the air-moving work.
• Ready-to-finish with no prefinish applied, so stain, paint, or a custom finish can be applied on site to match the kitchen.

Where This Shell Fits in a Kitchen Design

The Signature Straight is the right choice when the kitchen calls for a wood hood that reads as cabinetry rather than an appliance. Its straight-line profile works with flat-front, shaker, and transitional door styles without competing with the surrounding millwork. Because the shell arrives unfinished, it can be matched precisely to the stain or paint used on the rest of the kitchen, which is the main advantage of a ready-to-finish maple product over a factory-finished unit. The 30-inch width aligns with standard range hood sizing above a 30-inch cooktop, and the wall mount position keeps the installation straightforward against a standard kitchen wall.

Maple, Unfinished, and Ready for the Jobsite

Maple is a preferred species for painted and stained cabinetry because it mills to a smooth surface and does not have the open grain or pronounced figure that can interfere with a uniform finish. This shell arrives with no prefinish applied, which means the finishing work happens on site after the hood is installed. That sequence lets the finish be matched directly to cabinet door samples or paint colors, and lets the painter blend any seams between the hood and adjacent cabinet panels. The liner is already included, so the components that need to be on hand before finishing are in the box.

Who Specifies This Hood and When

Cabinet shops, designers, and contractors specifying a wood hood for a new kitchen build or a remodel will find this shell most useful when the cooktop is 30 inches wide, the surrounding cabinetry is maple or a wood that takes a similar finish, and the design calls for a straight rather than arched or decorative valance profile. Homeowners finishing their own kitchens can specify this as the decorative wood component and pair it with a separately selected Broan ventilator. The ventilation unit that moves air is purchased separately; the liner included with this shell is the piece that connects the two.
