This VMI 48-inch maple arched double panel wall mount range hood is a decorative wood shell designed to frame the cooktop with a classic arched profile in a wide-format footprint. At 48 inches wide, 40-1/2 inches tall, and 21-1/4 inches deep, it suits larger cooktop installations where the hood needs to carry visual weight across the wall. It ships ready-to-finish so the final stain or paint is applied on-site to match the surrounding cabinetry. The liner and ventilation insert are sold separately.
A 48-inch hood shell reads differently than a narrower unit. It spans the width of a pro-style or dual-fuel range and carries the eye across the wall in a way that a 30 or 36-inch shell cannot. The arched double panel detail reinforces that scale, using two raised panels and a curved arch to create a furniture-quality focal point rather than a plain box. The result is a hood that holds its own in a kitchen with tall uppers, thick crown, or detailed door profiles.
Maple is a close-grain hardwood that takes stain evenly and paints to a smooth, consistent surface. Because this shell ships ready-to-finish, the shop or installer decides the final color rather than working around a factory coat. That matters most when the hood needs to match an existing run of cabinets or a custom paint color. The double panel face is milled in maple throughout, so the grain and profile hold up to the same finishing process used on the surrounding doors and drawer fronts.
This is the right choice for a kitchen where the range is 36 to 48 inches wide and the design calls for a traditional or transitional look with a custom finish. Cabinet shops building out a custom kitchen can finish this shell in the same step as the cabinet doors. Designers specifying for a client who wants paint or stain to a specific color code will find the ready-to-finish maple accommodates that without the guesswork of matching a prefinished surface. Because the liner and ventilation insert are ordered separately, the ventilation can be sized to the cooktop output and duct configuration independently of the shell selection.
Neither. This is the decorative wood shell only. The liner and the ventilator that moves the air are sold separately and should be specified to suit the cooktop and duct layout.
The shell ships ready-to-finish, meaning the maple surface is prepared but not coated. Stain, paint, or another approved finish is applied on-site by the installer or finisher.
A 48-inch shell is typically paired with a 36 to 48-inch wide range or cooktop. The ventilation capacity is determined by the liner and insert selected, not by the wood shell.
The arched double panel adds two raised panels with a curved arch at the top, giving the hood a more traditional furniture-style profile compared to a flat or straight-valance shell.
At 48 inches wide in ready-to-finish maple, this VMI arched double panel shell gives a large-format kitchen a custom-finished hood that matches the cabinetry rather than contrasting with it.
