Today the design blog focuses on another Iron Wood Cabinet Company submission via Jason Syberg. Jason has this to say about his cabinetry, design statement and the reason for using the Faber Tratto hood:

"I designed and built these cabinets for Scott Ross owner of Timberhaven Homes in Kelowna BC. Scott builds some of the most beautiful homes I've seen. I had done a number of cabinet packages for Scott, so I was honoured when he asked me to do his personal home. The house is situated in Vinyeard Estates near Mission Hill Winery overlooking Okanagan Lake and acres of vineyards! We used rift cut white oak with a dark walnut stain complimented with white quartz countertop, and glass and metal details. The kitchen was finished off with high quality appliances such as Faber's Tratto glass and stainless range hood to create a modern, timeless look that will always be in style."

The Tratto hood blends in well into this well crafted kitchen. The glass shelving,white countertops and white tiles on the backsplash all compliment the minimal design of the Tratto. With 600 cfm's, stainless baffle filters, 2 level halogen lighting and electronic LED controls, the modern kitchen is enhanced by the hoods modern amenities.  Thank you once again to Jason at Iron Wood Cabinet Company and to Scott Ross of  Timberhaven Homes for sharing!

Stilo Wall hood in a stunning Canadian lakeside house

Many thanks to designer and cabinet fabricator Jason Syberg of Iron Wood Cabinet Company who used our Stilo wall hood in this beautiful lakeside kitchen located in Peachland, BC Canada, in the Okanagan lake region.

Jason had this to say about his kitchen design and how the Stilo wall hood fit:

"I designed and built this cabinet package for my own house. I wanted to use natural elements, wood, glass, and metal and have them showcased against a white backdrop. I combined quarter sawn walnut, aluminum and frosted glass doors, paint grade millwork, white quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances including a Faber Stilo hood fan to create a clean modern look that complemented the amazing lake view this property had."

The Stilo because of it's sleek Italian design has always blended well in a contemporary setting. The hood compliments the entire kitchen and the clean lines of the hood match up with the horizontal lines of the cabinetry. And if Jason, a kitchen professional used our hood in his OWN HOME, that means he trusts Faber to be used by his clients! For more information see our website.

The focus of today's Faber blog is a beautiful and very stylish kitchen design by Roost Interior Design of Ashville, North Carolina. Leslie Huntley of Roost Interior Design describes the kitchen design and how Faber fits into the kitchen:

"The homeowners (who are avid cooks) picked the Faber hood because it had the correct capacity to pair with their gas range. We all liked the look of the hood (we were mixing traditional and contemporary in the space so it fit right in). The homeowners do a lot of research on which appliances are the best for busy kitchens, so the fact that they chose a faber means a lot!"

We definitely agree with Leslie and the homeowners that the Stilo Isola matches up well in this transitional design with modern white, sleek cabinetry and the traditional wood flooring. The bold red island plus the stainless masterpiece above it stands out in this kitchen and gives the kitchen a focal point and a "pop". The Stilo Isola hood fan with 600 cfm Pro blower, advanced controls and baffle filters are able to stand up and take the heat from the pro gas stove below.  For more information on Faber hoods visit our website and visit Roost Interior Design to see more of Leslie's designs. Special thanks to Matt Rose Photography

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.

Below is a video link discussing the new controls:
