Vent hoods may seem like they are not the most “glamorous” part of kitchen design.  Many do not even understand the importance or benefits of having a range hood in their own homes. Some states even have safety codes and regulations for range hoods, requiring them to be installed in your home. However, interior designers and other house professionals consider range hoods a crucial investment for any kitchen space. These appliances are not only the powerful force behind having fresh clean air, but also an elegant showpiece in the kitchen.

Wall Mount Range Hoods can be a great alternative to a microwave in your kitchen. It has been proven that microwave ventilation does not cover nearly enough stovetop space, nor is it as effective as clearing the air as range hood ventilation. There are always options for places to put your microwave whether it’s down below in a slide-out drawer, built in your cabinets, or on top of your counter space. Range hoods are a beautiful, modern addition to your kitchen in place of your microwave.

8) Decorate It
