Tratto - glass and stainless beauty

The Tratto rangehood by Faber is a stunning hood that matches up well with a lot of cooking surfaces and room designs. For instance in this kitchen picture (courtesy of Euro-line Appliances) you see a traditional kitchen with dark counter tops and a gas cooktop, and neutral backsplash tiles. The Tratto which combines glass and stainless steel offers a "light" look in the kitchen because of the curved glass canopy section. As opposed to much larger canopy hoods on the market, the Tratto will still be the center of attention but yet won't detract too much from the wonderful kitchen design because it is a thin unobtrusive canopy. With a powerful 600 cfm pro motor, halogen lights and baffle style filters, the Tratto will perform very well over most cooking surfaces including pro gas cooktops/stoves - as seen in this photo.

Notice the additional design elements that incorporate the diamond edge of the Diamante, with the marble tiles on the backsplash that are also diamond shaped.

Synthesis rangehood - traditional and contemporary

The Synthesis rangehood by Faber is a traditional canopy style rangehood that features a 500 cfm motor. It is available in 30 or 36 inches widths and in black or white or stainless finishes. The hood has simple angles and a flat front nose that matches up well with a lot of different cooking brands. The Synthesis is shown in this picture over a DCS range which has a bull nose front and matches up well with this hood. Because of the simple lines on this hood, a contemporary kitchen could also match up very well with this hood style.

With 19.5 inches in depth, the hood covers most of a pro surface front to back. As with any of Faber's rangehoods, we recommend that hoods be hung at least 30 inches over a pro gas stove like the one in this photo. For more information visit the Synthesis page on our website.

Faber in a Green Building Project

Faber has been used in many LEED ® green certified building projects around the US and Canada. One of those projects is the Cyan located in Portland, OR. The Agio fits in perfectly in this modern, quaint kitchen that is designed for efficiency and minimalism. Basically this wall of appliances has everything you need in a small space in order to prepare your foods while using luxury appliances that are designed with energy efficiency in mind. As you can see with the Agio you have the ability to replace the front face of the hood with your custom drawer front to match your cabinetry. When pushed in the Agio completely integrates with the cabinets, when pulled out the hood turns on and effectively vents your kitchen odors, grease, steam and smoke. For more information visit the Agio product page.

Scirocco - disappearing downdraft

The Scirocco by Faber is a unique rangehood that is placed behind a cooktop and with a push of a button the hood completely disappears except for a stainless top strip. Push the button again and the hood rises 9.5 inches showing 2 dishwasher safe stainless accented grease filters. There are several safety features on this hood that are not found in other brands. When the filters are removed from the hood, the hood will not go back down until the filters are placed back in the hood. That way no accidents can happen with "little" fingers getting caught in the hood. Also to prevent finger pinching, the top trim strip will "pop" off so your fingers will not catch under the trim.

For the money, you cannot buy a better a downdraft rangehood. The value compared to the competition is incredible, check it out yourself. With a powerful 600 cfm motor and a variable speed motor and no brand label on the top of the hood, you can mix and match with any brand cooktop and save money in the process.

Perla design elements

Designer Photo - aligned with upper cabinets

The Orizzonte by Faber is a designer hood with multiple fan speed settings, an LED read out screen, multiple light settings and a auto shut down timer. The coolest design feature of the hood is the recommended height off the cooking surface. As seen in the photo, the Orizzonte is installed 18" off the counter, or the same height as the upper cabinets. This creates a fluid design where the hood becomes part of the cabinet lines in your kitchen. See more about this hood at www.faberonline.com
