Faber Range Hood Accessories

For taller than average ceilings.

Most stainless steel wall mount and island mounted canopy hoods have a high ceiling chimney kit available. The upper chimney cover that comes with the vent hood is replaced with a taller chimney cover kit to accommodate a higher ceiling. Most hoods can reach 11’ high ceilings when using this kit. See installation instructions for specific dimensions.

Available for the following hoods: Orizzonte, Tratto, Tratto Isola, Stilo, Stilo Isola, Diamante, Diamante Isola, Classica, Gemma, Glassy, Glassy Isola, Tender, Dama, Dama Isola, Perla, Fortezza Isola

See the technical specs page for information on model numbers and dimensions. For installation, follow the normal installation instructions, using the high ceiling chimney kit in place of the upper chimney that came with the hood.

Used for installations where ductwork is impossible or impractical.

Every Faber hood except for the Scirocco, has the ability to be recirculated or converted to ductless. It is highly recommended that professional style cooking always be vented to the outside.

Ductless conversion kits are available for all island canopy, and wall canopy/chimney kitchen hoods. Each ductless conversion kit consists of: a lower chimney cover with holes for venting back into the kitchen, vent grates for the holes, thick, high quality charcoal filters to absorb odors, and a ductless diverter piece to channel air back thru the vent holes in the chimney. Replacement charcoal filters can be ordered for all range hoods. It is recommended that charcoal filters be changed every 6 months as their absorption power decreases over time. See below for information on charcoal filter kits.

The following hoods use a ductless conversion kit for venting back into the kitchen: Orizzonte, Tratto, Tratto Isola, Stilo, Stilo Isola, Diamante, Diamante Isola, Synthesis, Tender, Dama, Dama Isola, Perla

For any hood that is installed directly underneath or inside of a wood hood or cabinet, charcoal filters only are used to recirculate the hood. A set of 2 filters is the only part that comes in a recirculating kit.

The following hoods use only a recirculating charcoal filter kit for venting back into the kitchen: Mirror, Matrix (comes with a ductless grate, no extra ducting required), Magnum, Pellicano, Inca Pro 30, Inca HC SS, Inca Smart, Jewel, Velvet, Cristal HC, Cristal 24, Agio (no extra ducting required)

How the kits work:

Hoods that use the ductless conversion kit require absolutely no ductwork at all to bring air back into the kitchen.

Hoods that are recirculating (except the Agio, Cylindra, Cylindra Isola, Matrix, and Mirror), require a small amount of ductwork to divert the air to the top of the cabinet or the face or side of the soffit. However, the ductwork does not have to exit the home, but rather return the air back into the kitchen. Click here to see a picture of a Cristal HC with a recirculating installation. Click here to see the ductless Agio with no ducting required.

The charcoal filters for all hoods should be replaced approximately every 6 months depending on usage as the charcoal’s odor absorption decreases over time.

See the technical specs page for specific model number information, which hoods take a ductless conversion kit, or charcoal filter kit only and to find specific instructions for installation. Replacement charcoal filter information can also be found there.

Create a finished look under our Faber Collection Built-In hoods.

A Liner is a stainless steel shell that is installed underneath an insert hood. Faber liners are available in 30” and 36” widths. The liner accessory for the Inca Smart and Inca HC is adjustable in depth from 16” – 17 7/8”. The liner accessory for the Inca Pro 30 is adjustable in depth from 21” – 25”.

There are many reasons why liners should be used with every built - in range hood:

• They are 4 inches tall which provides additional capture area under the range hood to capture cooking odors.
• Local building codes may require that exposed wood above the stove be covered by metal.
• Stainless steel is easier to clean than wood.
• The life of the cabinetry is extended since the exposure to cooking contaminants is reduced underneath the cabinet.
• The liner gives a more complete and integrated look to the insert hood.

Available for the following hoods: Inca HC SS, Inca Smart, Inca Pro 30

See the technical specs page for specific model information within the individual specification sheets and installation instructions.

The stainless steel faceplate accessory on the front of the Agio gives an upscale look.

Available for the Agio tiltout range hood only. The stainless front kit replaces the black or white glass front with a stainless steel panel. The kit is available in 24”, 30” and 36”.

Transitions two duct holes into one larger duct to make ductwork less complex.

For the Maestrale and Fortezza Isola have duct transitions for use on the 48” versions, this transition is placed on top of the range hood duct openings which are two – 6” holes for ductwork. The transition converts the two duct holes into one 10” round opening to vent your range hood to the outside of the house.

The duct transition accessory is available for the Maestrale and Fortezza Isola range hoods.

Two different decorative chimney cover options are available for the Maestrale.

The Maestrale comes without chimneys in the box, an under-cabinet mounting is the only choice right out of the box. If you prefer a chimney cover above the Maestrale you have two optional accessories. The Telescopic chimney cover and the Full Width Duct Cover.

The telescopic chimney cover is 23 5/8” wide, 7 7/8” deep and has two pieces of chimney that slide in and out of each other to accommodate a ceiling height of 8 – 9 feet.

The full width duct cover is 12” high and 12” deep and is available in 30”, 36” and 48” widths. This duct cover is intended to match up with the same size width Maestrale range hood.

For cold weather environments, tightly insulated homes or in high rise condominiums with ventilation restrictions, sometimes hoods under 300 cfm's are required by local building codes to prevent removing too much air from inside the home. The CFM reducer kit allows almost the entire collection of hoods to be converted to below 300 CFM.
