A 36-Inch Maple Canopy Hood Shell for a Finished, Built-In Look

This Omega National Estate Series canopy range hood is a 36-inch decorative wood shell in maple, wall-mounted and supplied ready-to-finish so it matches the surrounding cabinetry. A Broan-compatible liner is included.

Key Features

• 36-inch width and 24-inch height suit a wide range installation with generous visual presence above the cooktop.
• Maple wood construction accepts stain or paint for a finish that coordinates with the kitchen.
• Ready-to-finish surface ships unfinished so the wood can be stained, painted, or sealed on-site.
• Broan-compatible liner included bridges the decorative shell to a compatible Broan ventilation unit.
• Wall-mount canopy design positions the hood against the wall above the range in a classic canopy profile.
• 6-7/8-inch depth keeps the shell proportional without projecting far into the kitchen.

Where This Hood Works

The canopy profile is the most traditional wall-mount hood form: a tapered or boxed enclosure rising from the range to the wall or soffit above. At 36 inches wide, this shell suits a standard 36-inch range or a pair of wall ovens, and the 24-inch height gives the installation the scale to read as a focal point rather than an afterthought. Because it mounts to the wall and connects to adjacent cabinetry, it fits naturally into a run of upper cabinets on either side without requiring a full mantel build-out.

Wood, Finish Prep, and the Liner

Maple is a close-grained, consistent hardwood that takes stain evenly and paints cleanly, making it a reliable choice when the surrounding cabinets are maple or when a painted finish is planned. This shell ships unfinished, so the finish is applied after delivery to match the exact stain color or paint of the kitchen. The Broan-compatible liner ships with the shell. It provides the internal housing that a Broan ventilation unit seats into, so the shell and ventilator work together as a complete installation. The ventilation unit itself is selected separately based on the cooktop output and the duct path.

Who Specifies This Shell

Cabinet shops finishing a maple kitchen often specify this shell when the client wants a coordinated hood rather than a stainless appliance. The unfinished maple means the shop can apply the same stain or finish used on the cabinet doors, and the result reads as a custom piece rather than an off-the-shelf product. Designers working on traditional or transitional kitchens use the canopy form because it pairs with raised-panel doors and crown molding without competing with them. For a renovation where the range is already 36 inches, this shell drops in without reworking the cabinet layout.
