What goes into range hood pricing
A range hood can add tremendous value to your home. Most importantly, it protects the quality of the air you breathe, filtering out harmful gases and airborne irritants as well as controlling the odors released during the cooking process.
Second, a hand-crafted range hood contributes to the aesthetic appeal of your home. Resting above your stove, over your island, or nestled beneath a cabinet, your World CopperSmith range hood will be a gorgeous centerpiece to admire for years to come.
Adding to the value of your home
If you are looking to list your house, either soon or in the future, a range hood will add concrete resale value to the space. Not only is it a supremely useful amenity, improving the overall performance of your kitchen - an artisan range hood also creates character and elevates the design of your home.
Is a range hood worth it?
Range hoods are an investment, but what you pay upfront will buy you years of clean air and a game-changing design centerpiece for your kitchen. If you wish to improve the functionality and beauty of your home for your family, or for potential future sale, a range hood is absolutely worth it.
Do all stoves need a hood?
Without a proper hood, you will inhale airborne pollutants from your cooking, including carbon monoxide and formaldehyde. While you may not notice the effects of this in the short-term, long-term exposure to these irritants can worsen asthma and lead to a host of negative health outcomes.
For the protection of your and your family's health, a functional range hood is a must.

To understand pricing, let's go over the variations of range hoods.
Range hoods
A range hood is a kitchen appliance that hangs above your cooktop and eliminates airborne contaminants via a combination of filtering and air extraction. Range hoods are also commonly referred to as vent hoods and stove hoods.
Ducted
A ducted hood removes contaminated air completely, venting through a duct to the outdoors (never a basement or attic). These hoods are lower maintenance than ductless and are most conveniently located on exterior walls, as in wall-mounted range hoods.
Ductless
A ductless hood forgoes an outdoor vent, filtering your kitchen air and recycling it back into the space. This requires a heavy-duty charcoal filter that must be replaced every few months. Ductless hoods are popular for island range hoods or kitchens located in interior rooms.
The majority of CopperSmith's range hoods can be made ductless. With more versatility and decreased range hood installation cost, ductless hoods are a great option for many of our customers.
Convertible range hoods
A convertible range hood is one that possesses both ducted and ductless capability. Some find the versatility to be valuable for their home.
Wall-mounted
A wall-mounted range hood, also called a chimney hood, is perhaps the most popular design. The vent hood is mounted on the wall directly above your stovetop, where it can capture all of the gases and irritants released in cooking.
Island
An island range hood is installed in the ceiling above a kitchen island range or oven. This exhaust hood can be ducted or ductless, depending on how much ductwork you're willing to install.
Under-cabinet
An under-cabinet range hood, similar to a wall-mounted variant, is located above your stovetop.
What makes a cabinet-insert range hood special is that it tucks underneath your existing cabinetry. Cabinets above stovetops are exposed to moisture and grime, which will accelerate the material's deterioration. A cabinet range hood protects your cabinets while adding elegance to your kitchen's design.
Installation
At CopperSmith, we are committed to creating a top-quality range hood with your exact specifications. We do not offer an installation service, but our installation guides have all the details needed for a professional to get the job done.
You can expect installation costs to range from around $200-$600, depending on your location and the complexity of your installation.
How do you install a stove hood?
To install a range hood, we strongly recommend you hire a professional HVAC or plumbing technician.
Someone with experience and training can install range hoods with ease and precision, ensuring your ductwork and vent hood placement are perfect.
Range hood installation costs vary, and some procedures, like island range hood installation, can be slightly more complicated. Thankfully, it's easy to get a quote through many reputable online services.
What should I look for when buying a range hood?
You'll want to look for a range hood that a) performs the function you need [in terms of air filtration] and b) fits into and elevates your kitchen's aesthetic. Our expert team is here to help on both fronts.
If you're unsure of the CPM (cubic feet per minute, a measure of vent power) requirements for your kitchen, we can evaluate your needs and make an accurate recommendation.
With exhaustive customization available, we can help you make the design choices that will perfectly suit your kitchen, creating an indelible piece of art at the center of your home.
