Omega National Wood Range Hood Shell Built for Red Oak Kitchens

This Omega National Signature Straight wall mount range hood is a 36-inch-wide decorative wood shell crafted in red oak, designed to frame the cooking area and coordinate with red oak cabinetry. A Sirius-compatible liner is included so the shell is ready to accept a compatible Sirius ventilation unit.

Key Features

• Red oak construction gives the shell a pronounced, open grain that stains and finishes in step with red oak cabinets throughout the kitchen.
• Signature Straight profile delivers a clean, upright silhouette that works with traditional and transitional cabinet styles.
• 36-inch width suits standard 36-inch range or cooktop installations.
• Sirius-compatible liner included so the shell arrives ready to receive a compatible Sirius ventilator, purchased separately.
• Wall mount position at 22-7/8 inches tall and 19 inches deep for standard wall installations above the cooktop.
• Unfinished wood allows the shell to be stained or painted on-site to match the surrounding cabinetry exactly.

Matching the Woodwork Above the Range

Red oak has a distinctive open grain and warm undertone that stains differently than maple, cherry, or alder. When the surrounding cabinets are red oak, a hood shell in the same species finishes to the same depth and grain character, so the hood reads as part of the cabinet run rather than a contrasting element. The Signature Straight profile keeps the lines simple: straight sides and a clean valance that do not compete with door styles or crown molding elsewhere in the kitchen.

An Unfinished Shell Ready for the Job Site

The hood arrives unfinished, which is the right condition for custom cabinetry work. The finisher can sand, stain, glaze, or paint the shell alongside the surrounding cabinets in the same finishing sequence, producing a consistent sheen and color match that a pre-finished product cannot deliver. At 19 inches deep and 22-7/8 inches tall, the proportions suit a standard wall installation between the upper cabinets and a ceiling-mounted or wall-mounted position above a 36-inch cooking surface.

Who Specifies This Hood and Why

Cabinet shops finishing a full red oak kitchen specify this shell when the design calls for the range hood to disappear into the cabinetry rather than stand out as an appliance. Custom finishers value the unfinished state because it gives them full control over the final color and sheen. Designers working with traditional or transitional red oak kitchens will find the Signature Straight profile versatile enough to carry both raised-panel and shaker door styles. The included Sirius-compatible liner means the mechanical ventilation question has a defined answer: select the Sirius ventilator that suits the cooktop, and the liner is already there to receive it. The ventilator itself is sold separately and sized to the cooking appliance and room requirements.
