Maple Artisan Style and a Ready-to-Install Liner

This Omega National Artisan Series wall mount range hood is a 42-inch maple wood shell designed to bring handcrafted character to the space above the cooktop. It ships with a Broan-compatible liner already included, so the decorative enclosure and the hardware that accepts the ventilator arrive together.

Key Features

• 42-inch width in maple brings a distinctive wood grain to a wider cooktop installation.
• Artisan Series design delivers a handcrafted aesthetic that suits transitional and traditional kitchens.
• Wall mount position at 46 inches tall and 19 inches deep fits standard wall-mount installations above a range or cooktop.
• Broan-compatible liner included so the metal liner that seats the ventilator ships with the shell.
• Ready-to-finish maple accepts stain or paint to match the surrounding cabinetry.

Where the Artisan Hood Works Best

A 42-inch hood is the right choice when the cooktop runs wider than a standard 30-inch or 36-inch range, or when the design calls for a hood that fills more visual real estate above the range wall. The Artisan Series suits kitchens that lean toward a crafted, detailed look rather than a sleek modern profile. Transitional kitchens, farmhouse kitchens, and traditional cabinetry programs all read well with this style. Because the shell is maple and supplied unfinished, the finish can be matched exactly to the surrounding cabinet doors rather than approximated.

Wood, Finish Prep, and the Liner

Maple takes stain evenly and holds a painted finish cleanly, which makes it a practical species choice when the finish plan is not yet locked in at the time of ordering. The shell arrives ready-to-finish so the finishing step happens on-site alongside the rest of the cabinetry. The included Broan-compatible liner is the metal inner housing that the ventilator mounts into. The liner eliminates one sourcing step: the shell and the liner are ordered together as a single SKU, and the ventilator that moves the air is selected separately to match the cooktop output and the room's ducting layout.

Who Orders This Shell

Cabinet shops finishing a kitchen package frequently specify this shell when a client wants a wide, wood hood that integrates with the cabinet finish rather than reading as a separate stainless appliance. Designers use it to anchor a range wall with a hood that carries real wood grain and a craftsman profile. Contractors sourcing for a renovation where the finish is still being decided appreciate that the unfinished maple can be matched later without requiring a factory-finished replacement. At 42 inches, the hood also works in applications where a 36-inch shell would look undersized relative to the cabinetry flanking it.
