Product Line Overview
The Vent-A-Hood product line consists of two series of ducted, and one line of duct-free ventilation. A quick review of the major differences, outlined below, should help to narrow your search for the Vent-A-Hood model that will best suit the type of appliance you have, as well as your unique cooking habits.
Ducted Ventilation: These two series of ventilators both involve the highly efficient principles of centrifugal ventilation but they differ distinctly in their CFM ratings and, therefore, ventilation capacity.
- The “Classic" Series. Our term at Shady Oak Distributing for the unique Magic Lung® ventilation system.
- The "K" Series. “K" Series products all have a “K" in the model number.

Duct-Free, Air Recovery System (ARS) Ventilation: It is always preferable to vent a range hood to the outside. When that isn't possible, the best method for removing cooking contaminants from the air is, hands-down, the Vent-A-Hood 4-Phase Air Recovery System. This patent-pending system removes virtually all grease, odors, steam and smoke. In short, it's the only duct-free ventilation system that actually does something!
