42” Range Hood

When choosing a size, a 42” range hood is about the middle of the pack. If you’re beginning a new kitchen remodel or construction project, choosing a high-end range hood from CopperSmith is an excellent way to take your project over the top.

A range hood is an essential appliance in every kitchen. Cooks of all levels will appreciate its ability to remove smoke, grease, odors, and fumes and improve the air quality. They’re also excellent for helping to illuminate the cooktop/range, which provides additional light for cooking and ambiance.

A good range hood is functional and attractive and adds a touch of style to your kitchen. There are many range hoods on the market, but a 42” CopperSmith selection delivers all the functionality of a standard hood.

You must understand how to choose the proper size before selecting your 42” range hood from CopperSmith. However, before choosing the appropriate size, we’ll highlight why you should consider the only brand for any high-end kitchen project or for anybody that does serious cooking.

What Sets CopperSmith 42” Range Hoods Apart from Other Brands?

Specific characteristics set CopperSmith apart from the competition. A combination of style, durability, and top-tier operation make CopperSmith metalware one of the premier names in the construction and renovation industry. Consider the following standout specs of a CopperSmith 42” Range Hood.

42” Range Hood Construction Material

Hardware made from 18-gauge steel is the most common type of hardware used in a kitchen remodel. This includes sinks and range hoods.

Commercial kitchens often use 16-gauge stainless, but they are not used in new homes as a generic option. Because it is more affordable than 16-gauge stainless steel, many home builders and general contractors choose the 18-gauge version of stainless steel.

When it comes to durability and longevity, 16-gauge is superior. The 18-gauge stainless steel is thinner and less durable than its 16-gauge counterpart.

16-gauge kitchen appliances can withstand daily wear without cracking, scratching, or deterioration. Installing components made from 16-gauge stainless steel will save you money over the long term, compared to 18-gauge steel's shorter life span.

The Living Finish

Most of the 42” range hood's straps and rivets are made from polished, living brass. Living finished brass, which transforms brass materials into living, breathing art, is a highly sought-after cosmetic component in brass selection.

The brass will age naturally as time goes by. It slowly changes, creating a unique, raw look that’s a constant work in progress. This look brings a beautiful new level of cosmetic brilliance to any kitchen or construction project.

This brass has excellent cosmetic properties. It also has high antimicrobial properties. The brass is organic and can kill 99.9% of bacteria within two hours.

This includes:

·       MRSA

·       Staph

·       Influenza A

·       E-Coli

·       Coronavirus

·       More

CopperSmith 42" range hoods deliver sanitation, visual, and functional benefits for anyone who chooses to have one installed.

Cosmetic Elements of CopperSmith 42” Range Hoods

Ordering a 42” range hood allows customizing each piece from the ground up. Various construction materials exist as the primary material used to build each hood. The surface finish is also customizable, along with the straps and rivets.

It’s worth remembering that the overall surface finish is customizable apart from the straps and rivets. You could potentially use two different materials to finish each. Two distinct surface finishes are usually recommended for contrasting purposes depending on the material used.

The following list contains all possible configuration options for your 42” range hood from CopperSmith (this includes different finishes and textures):

• Aluminum Mill: This finish has a flatter and darker look than the living finish stainless steel.
• Natural Brass: This living finish brass design allows the organic elements of brass to alter the look of the metal as time passes, leaving you with a continuously morphing centerpiece to your kitchen. This finish begins as a caramel-like color.
• Natural Copper: Natural copper is another living finish metallic offering with a much duller look than you’d expect from copper. This finish gives off a pastel brown color in its organic state.
• Brass Antique: The lighter amber of the natural brass color gets a touch of brown as this finish speeds up the natural aging process.
• Brass Dark Antique: This finish is just a shade or two lighter than the brass antique offering above, putting off almost a walnut-type color.
• Brass Light Antique: This brass finish lightens up considerably, fading away from the browner colors and back into a darker amber color.
• Brass Matte: This finish is flipped back lighter than the original brass, putting off almost a dull gold color.
• Copper Antique: This version of copper incorporates more of the red shades you’re used to. You could call this one close to crimson.
• Copper Bronze: This unconventional copper finish gives off an almost charcoal grey color for a unique but beautiful option.
• Copper Dark Antique: This goes into a deeper crimson, hitting an almost cherry-like shade.
• Copper Light Antique: This finish is much lighter than the two previous and is very similar to a rose gold color.
• Copper New Penny: This one isn’t just a clever name. It matches the new penny color to a T.
• Copper Old Coin: The same situation perfectly represents an older, duller copper penny color.
• Copper Rose: This beautiful mix perfectly blends copper and red and delivers a Dr. Pepper-red color.
• Copper Red Fire: Textures are incorporated at this point. This is more of a crimson color with a hand-hammered texture.
• Stainless Steel Black Enamel: This is one of the more exciting finishes. This would look amazing in the proper kitchen in almost a pastel black.
• Brass Polished: This is a hand-hammered texture with a standard brass finish.
• Copper Rustic: This mosaic texture is nearly black, with hints of copper shining through.
• Brass Aged: Another stone mosaic pattern with the raised texture perfectly colored with white between the marks.
• Stainless Steel White Enamel: Another unique option – is white enameled stainless steel.

Crown Profile

After selecting your finish and materials, you choose whether you want a crown profile. This is a shape along the top portion of your 42” range hood. These come in the same conditions you would expect crown molding, providing additional cosmetic value with the correct configuration. If you decide to place a crown on your 42” range hood, be mindful regarding the distance between your cooking surface and the hood. Because the crown adds additional height to the range hood, you’ll need to compensate for this when you factor in the size of the entire unit

Strap Finish

The strap finish comes next, with different configurations providing straps in the corners and on the front portion of the range hood. Some pretty unique offerings like Copper Verde exist for the strap finish options, providing some one-of-a-kind textures and colors.

Finishing Touches

The rivets style and finish cap most decorative elements off for your 42” range hood. One of the final decisions you’ll make is whether you’d prefer a wall-mount or island-mount, then it’s on to the fan and ventilation set up.

Quality Fan and Ventilation for Your 42” Range Hood

One of the final steps to finalizing your 42” range hood order is selecting a top-tier fan and ventilation setup. Without the proper ventilation, the operational value of your range hood is lost.

Luckily, CopperSmith has various ventilation and fan components, offering options for wall and island mounts and silencing equipment to make your range hood unit nearly noise-free.

Fan Liner and Motor

These two pieces are directly responsible for ushering the grease particles, heat, and smoke out of your kitchen. When combined, the fan liner and motor provide next-level ventilation, removing excess heat to make it more comfortable in your kitchen.

In addition, our fan liner and motor systems are excellent at eliminating cooking smells from the area. By quickly removing any traces of grease and heavy smells, your furniture and curtains in the region remain free from any long-term stains and odors.

You’ll find the two LED bulbs equipped with the fan liner and motor extremely convenient, providing additional light to your cooking area for greater visibility. Remote operation options add extra convenience to your range hood.

Silencing components guarantee quiet operation and eliminate any shaking from clunky fans that end up damaging your hood over an extended period. Each fan and ventilation system setup is top-of-the-line and crafted for durability.

We stand behind our warranty, providing a no-hassle guarantee on all ventilation systems. Our top-of-the-line systems ensure your 42” range hood stays in full-functioning operation for years to come.
