Omega National Wood Hood Shell for Alder-Matched Kitchens

This Omega National Arched Series wall mount range hood is a decorative alder wood shell designed to frame the cooking area and coordinate with alder cabinetry. At 36 inches wide, it ships unfinished and includes a Sirius-compatible liner, so the ventilation unit can be specified separately to suit the cooktop.

Key Features

• Alder wood construction with a clear, unfinished surface ready to accept stain or paint to match the surrounding cabinetry.
• Arched raised-panel design adds traditional depth and shadow detail to the hood face.
• 36-inch width suits standard 30-inch to 36-inch range or cooktop runs.
• Sirius-compatible liner included so the compatible ventilator can be sourced and installed without fabricating a custom liner.
• Wall-mount position attaches directly to the wall above the cooking surface.
• Not prefinished, giving the installer or finisher full control over the final color and sheen.

Where This Hood Shell Works

The Arched Series is the right choice when the kitchen calls for a traditional profile over the range. The raised panel face and arched valance read as furniture-grade millwork rather than an appliance enclosure, which makes it a natural complement to inset or raised-panel cabinet doors in the same space. Because the shell arrives unfinished, it can be stained to pull out the open grain characteristic of alder or painted to blend with a painted kitchen. Either path keeps the hood looking like it belongs rather than like it was added after the fact.

Alder, Unfinished, and Ready for the Job Site

Alder is a fine-grained hardwood that accepts stain evenly and takes paint cleanly, which is why it appears frequently in traditional and transitional kitchen programs. The clear, unfinished surface on this shell means the finishing step happens on site or in the shop alongside the rest of the cabinetry, so the hood matches the door color exactly rather than approximating it. The shell dimensions are 36 inches wide, 24-7/8 inches tall, and 19 inches deep, sized for a wall-mount installation above a standard residential range.

Who Specifies This Shell

Cabinet shops finishing a traditional or transitional kitchen order this shell when the design calls for an alder hood that matches the box wood and finishes with the rest of the job. Designers specifying a custom look over a 36-inch range will find the arched panel profile easier to integrate than a stainless appliance hood. Contractors handling a remodel where the cabinets are already alder can match the species and finish on site. In every case, the ventilation unit is a separate selection: the included Sirius-compatible liner handles the connection between this decorative shell and the power pack, but the ventilator that actually moves the air is ordered independently to match the cooktop output.
