Omega National 36"W Hickory Select Series Wall Mount Range Hood, Broan Compatible Liner Included - R1636HUF1

Hickory Grain Character And a Liner Ready for Broan

This Omega National Select Series wall mount range hood shell brings the bold, open grain of hickory above the cooktop in a 36-inch-wide canopy profile. The shell ships with a Broan-compatible liner included, so the decorative enclosure and the liner arrive together, ready for the ventilator that moves the air.

Key Features

• Solid hickory construction delivers the pronounced grain variation the species is known for, distinct from softer or more uniform wood options.
• 36-inch width and 24-inch height suits standard wall-mount positions above a matching cooktop run.
• Broan-compatible liner included so the shell and liner arrive as a matched pair, ready to accept a Broan ventilator.
• Wall-mount position installs against the wall above the range, canopy style.
• Ready-to-finish surface accepts stain, paint, or a custom finishing system applied on site to match the surrounding cabinetry.
• Select Series designation from Omega National, a brand known for decorative wood hood products in multiple species and profiles.

Where the Hickory Shell Fits the Kitchen

A range hood with hickory faces reads differently than one in maple or cherry. The species carries wide color variation within a single board, from near-white sapwood to amber and tan heartwood, with a pronounced open grain that catches stain in a way smoother species do not. In a kitchen built around rustic, craftsman, or transitional cabinetry, that character is the point. The 36-inch canopy width positions over a standard range or cooktop and anchors the wall above it without competing with surrounding upper cabinets.

Because this is a decorative wood shell, it frames the space and houses the ventilation hardware. It does not move air on its own. The Broan-compatible liner is included in this package, and the ventilator that provides actual airflow is selected and ordered separately to suit the cooktop and the room.

Finishing a Ready-to-Finish Shell

The shell arrives unfinished, which is the right starting point for a kitchen where the hood needs to match the cabinet species and stain exactly. Finishing on site means the color can be pulled from the same batch used on the cabinet doors, so the hood reads as part of the cabinetry rather than an appliance added after the fact. Hickory's open grain tends to absorb stain unevenly without a grain filler or conditioner, so the finishing sequence matters. A painter or finisher familiar with open-grain hardwoods will get the best result. Paint is also an option if the design calls for a painted range hood accent against stained or natural wood surrounds.

The Right Specification for This Shell

This hood suits a project where hickory is already in the material palette, the cooktop position calls for a 36-inch wall-mount enclosure, and the design calls for the hood to be finished to match. It pairs with a separately sourced Broan ventilator that mounts into the included liner. Cabinet shops finishing a custom kitchen in hickory can treat this as the hood component that ties the run together. Designers specifying a rustic or craftsman kitchen will find the canopy profile clean enough to carry the wood character without an ornate valance competing with the grain.
