How to buy a Range Hood

Posted by Rustica House on

Buying a range hood from Rustica House is easy. Once you located on myrustica.com site your preferable range hood and clicked the appliance image or link below it you will be taken to the detail page. Upon readying thoroughly hood description including information provided in bullets take a look at the menu below the price. In many respects it is similar for all our kitchen hoods. It includes a copper range hood, zinc stove hood, iron vent hood, pewter oven hood and made of tin exhaust hood category. Options such as range hood size, color, texture or version are same for all metal range hoods. As well as Note window that you can use to add extra information about custom work.

How to buy Rustica Range Hood

  1. Hood size defines width from left to right in the widest points. If the hood design includes decorative elements such as nails, rivets and/or moldings, they are part of the measurement. If you are ordering a range hood for example for wall installation and space between the cabinets is 36", you need to purchase 36" hood and use Note window to indicate that your available area is 36". The hood will be made slightly smaller in order to avoid any problems with installation. After all, any Rustica range hood is custom made individually and the dimensions are approximate.
  2. Hood height identifies the distance from the bottom edge to the top. If the hood model you are interested in includes a chimney or any other decorative elements such as a crown molding, those are included within the range hood height.
  3. Hood version specifies whether you are looking for a wall mount or kitchen central island range hood. The latest type costs a little bid more as it has all four walls finished and decorated the same way. While a wall mounting hood has only three wall finished and the back is flat. The latest can vent back to the house wall or kitchen ceiling. An island hood vents to the ceiling only as its the only connection to the house structure it is attached to. Keep in mind, the hood is heavy. Use proper screws to connect the hood iron structure to the ceiling joists.
  4. Insert option offers three choices.
  • You can buy rustica range hood without any equipment attached nor made ready for it. Select None.
  • Our economy insert included. We well the units that consist of 200 cubic feet per minute (CFM) capacity fan, light and filters. The ventilator has two speed switch what not only is meant for setting more or less air moving out of the room but also by lowering the RPM reduces the noise significantly.
  • We can customize the hood for the buyer's own ventilation equipment. In that case, you need to select Insert customized and use note window to identify your equipment brand and model number. This option carries $200 extra cost to cover material needed to customize the hood. Please keep in mind the insert dimensions need to be smaller than the hood itself. For example if you are buying 48" wide hood it means it has that width outside. Inside it is much smaller due the material thickness it is made of including iron frame which alone removes about two inches from available space inside. Beside, we need to prepare chassis that will hold your insert in place. They require a few extra as well. So the best choice for 48 hood would be the insert that is no larger than 42." The remaining space undernith the hood we fill with the metal used for building the rest of the hood, eg. copper, zinc, iron or pewter.

All above mentioned options are same for all our hoods regardless the metal they are made of. Options described below are specific for each metal so they will differ depending on the hood you are selecting for your kitchen. The material the range hood is made of is always shown as part of the page title as well as indicated in the hood description text.

Range Hood options depending the material

  1. Copper range hood can be fabricated sooth or hammered as well as the zinc. In addition, we offer stressed type hammering which is shown on one of the hood page photos. A pewter range hood can be hammered or smooth, iron hood and tin hood smooth only.
  2. Finishing colors are distinct for each metal. Copper can be made with honey, coffee, antique and natural patina. Also it can be hand polished to brand new US penny look or oxidized which makes the metal green. Natural is achieved in slightly different way than the rest of patinas. We place the copper sheet in a fire pit and heat it to the high temperature which in turn brings all the minerals changing color. In effect, copper range hood surface will have a lot of different tones ranging from yellow, gold, orange, to dark brown and black. It is the most rustic range hood finish. Antique or vintage as it is called sometimes is made of light patina washed with dark paint. It makes the hood old looking. It is similar to dark coffee but has less colors, it is more duel. A zinc hood can be shipped in natural metal look, dark or polished. In all three cases, this metal is rustic. Even natural zinc looks that way as we send it with a fine sandpaper prior to varnishing to prevent discoloration. It makes also easy to clean. A pewter range hood is offered in natural or polished. The first choice looks similar to zinc, however polished aluminum the pewter is made from is way more shining. Iron hoods are marketed with the patina finish or natural iron shown on the detail pages without options. Finally, Rustica tin hoods are for sale in natural or rustic which is achieved by washing metal with copper sulfate water solution and then covering with laquier.

At the bottom of the form with choices, there is a Note window. You use it for typing text. For the most part, it is meant for insert specification or any other instructions you may consider important. We manufacture Rustica range hoods on individual bases as made-to-order. It makes easy to modify their designs, change for example straps from copper to zinc including their finishing. Please bare in mind, we require at least four weeks to produce the range hood and deliver to any US mainland address. During high volume season the production process may be longer and extended with shipping to six weeks.
