Omega National Wood Hood Shell for a Custom Maple Kitchen

This Omega National Straight Accent wall-mount range hood shell is a 30-inch-wide maple wood enclosure that frames the cooktop and integrates with the surrounding cabinetry for a built-in look. It is a decorative shell, supplied ready-to-finish, with a Broan-compatible liner included.

Key Features

• Maple wood construction in the Straight Accent style, ready to receive stain or paint to match the kitchen.
• 30 inches wide and 30 inches tall with a 6-3/16-inch depth for a wall-mount installation.
• Straight valance design for a clean, contemporary profile over the cooktop.
• Broan-compatible liner included so the shell is ready to accept a compatible Broan ventilation unit.
• Wall-mount position installs against the wall above the range in a standard hood location.
• Not prefinished, giving the installer full control over the final stain, paint, or finish color.

How This Shell Works Above the Range

A decorative wood hood shell like this one handles the visual side of the installation. It creates the finished enclosure above the cooktop and reads as part of the cabinetry once stained or painted. The straight valance gives the front face a defined horizontal edge that suits transitional and contemporary kitchens, and the 30-inch width spans a standard single-wide range position. The actual ventilation work, moving air and filtering grease, is handled by a compatible Broan ventilator that mounts into the included liner, ordered separately.

Maple, Ready to Finish on Site

Maple is a close-grained, consistent hardwood that accepts stain and paint evenly. Because this shell arrives unfinished, it can be stained to match natural maple cabinetry, painted to coordinate with a two-tone kitchen, or finished in any system the job requires. Finishing on-site or in the shop means the hood color is matched to the actual cabinet finish rather than approximated from a factory swatch. The straight accent profile keeps the grain and millwork clean so the finish is the visual focus.

Where This Hood Fits Best

This shell suits kitchen installations that are specifying a custom or semi-custom maple cabinet run and want the hood enclosure to match in species and finish. Cabinet shops, kitchen designers, and contractors who finish their own site work will find the unfinished maple surface straightforward to work with. At 30 inches wide, it fits a standard 30-inch range or cooktop position, and the wall-mount design keeps the installation in a conventional location without requiring a ceiling connection or chimney extension beyond the shell itself. The Broan liner is in the box, so that part of the compatibility question is already resolved before the ventilator is selected.
