Photo Gallery Update – In-Cabinet “Shade” Designer Range Hood

When a kitchen remodel calls for a ventilation hood that’s high quality, reliable, quiet, and can be concealed inside a cabinet, the “Shade” range hoods from Italian range hood manufacturer Futuro Futuro definitely fit the bill.

The “Shade” range hoods, available in 36″ and 48″ widths, are specifically designed for installation inside cabinetry. With compact dimensions and pre-drilled holes, their installation is a breeze. Powerful yet whisper-quiet blower has 4 selectable speeds, from 150 to 940 CFM, to accommodate a variety of cooking conditions.

A touch-sensitive electronic control panel is mounted on an angled part of the hood body, so controls can be accessed even without opening the cabinet doors. For maximum convenience, an optional wireless remote control can be added. Dishwasher-safe filters, an extensible glass panel that protects cabinetry from heat and moisture, and bright halogen lights round out the impressive features of these sleek and compact range hood units.

We’ve just added a dozen exciting new photos to the image gallery for these models – check out the ultramodern kitchen designs featuring the “Shade” range hoods (as well as their prices, features, and more) on the individual product pages:
