Classica hood in a Transitional New England Kitchen

Todays beautiful kitchen featuring our Faber Classica hood comes courtesy of Nathan J. Reynolds of Insperiors, a Interior Design firm in Rhode Island who helps clients create their dream spaces in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. 

The kitchen design elements, vision and how the Classica fits are perfectly described by Nathan:

"The Classica stainless wall hood offers a high-end look to our North Dartmouth, Massachusetts kitchen design. The chimney style range hood provided traditional design elements, solid performance and an overall great look above the Frigidaire gas slide-in range.

The marble stone tile behind the hood frames the look and creates a strong focal point in the kitchen—accentuating the high ceiling height and beautiful crown molding atop the rich cherry custom wall cabinets. The tiled backsplash takes this kitchen from plain to lovely and layered.

The Classica stainless wall hood is minimalist and functional. I love to include Faber hoods whenever possible in my kitchen designs—as they look awesome and function well. They really do vent better than any other system out there. Plus, they don’t break the bank!" - Nathan J. Reynolds, Insperiors  

This kitchen really does accentuate the best qualities of the Italian styled Classica, the hood is a traditional shaped chimney style model but yet has modern design elements including the simple lines to fit into a transitional kitchen or a traditional one. With 600 cfm, dishwasher safe grease filters, a 3 speed LED electronic control and halogen lighting, the Classica has all the features and functionality you need in a decorative kitchen range hood.

New Blue LED Electonic Control

Even the most basic canopy range hood by Faber now features an updated control set up that enhances functionality, performance and aesthetics across the board. The new Blue LED backlit controls as seen below feature: 3 speeds, a blue LED indicator light to show the current speed and lighting and a 10 minute intensive speed timer that turns the hood on for 10 minutes at the highest speed to quickly eliminate odors.







When compared to the manual slide control on previous models, the new control is a big upgrade while not increasing the hood price.






Finally perhaps the biggest upgrade to Faber's decorative collection canopy hoods are the performance and energy savings in the hoods with the new controls. A new and improved motor is now in the models using the Blue LED control hoods. The previous models used a 500 cfm, 3.7 amp motor. The new models use a 600 cfm motor using 3.2 amps. Gaining 100 cfm's and reducing energy consumption with a 10% lower amperage motor is a win-win situation.
