Excellent
LOVE this suana. Maya and Norse Steam Team were amazing to work with!
Summerset vent hoods in widths from 36 to 72 inches sit alongside the brackets and covers that finish the install on this ventilation page. If you grill under a patio roof or a pergola, start with a hood wider than the grill and plan where the duct will go. The right width and wall spacing put the hood over the cooking area.
Why a covered grill needs a Summerset vent hood
A Summerset outdoor rated vent hood removes smoke, grease, heat and cooking odors from above the grill and pushes them outside through a duct, providing protection for the ceiling and the walls of the cover. Plan for an outlet and a duct run when you build the cover. You can compare brands in our outdoor vent hood collection.
Widths from 36 to 72 inches
The 36 inch one has a single motor moving one thousand cubic feet of air a minute. The larger hoods have two motors moving two thousand cubic feet of air a minute, twice the airflow of the 36 inch one. All have four speeds, with two LED lights on the 36 and four on the larger widths.
For Summerset grills, the 36 inch hood suits a 32 inch grill, and the 42 suits a 36. The 48 suits a 40 to 44 inch grill or a 36 on a breezy patio. The 60 covers a big grill with a side burner beside it. The 72 covers a whole cook line with a griddle or double side burner.
Brackets and duct covers that finish the install
A 4 inch or 8 inch spacer bracket moves the hood over the grates on a deep counter or behind a thick backsplash. Matching brackets fit the 36, 42, 48 and 60 inch widths and hide behind the hood. Each hood mounts on the wall or under the cover, and the 72 comes with its mounting bracket.
A duct cover is a 12 inch tall stainless steel sleeve that hides exposed ducting above the hood. Choose the one for the 36 inch hood or the one fitting the 42 to 72 inch widths. Stack two or three for a higher ceiling, or add them after mounting. Plan the rest of your outdoor kitchen too, and find panels that let air out of the island itself among the Summerset accessories.

Vent hood questions
Do I need a vent hood for an outdoor grill?
You need a hood when a solid cover traps smoke, grease and heat above the grill. It pulls them away and sends them outside through a duct, while a grill in the open needs no hood. Check local code because some towns treat covered patios like indoor rooms.
What size Summerset vent hood do I need?
Choose a hood wider than your grill. The 36 suits a 32 inch grill, the 42 suits a 36, and the 48 suits a 40 to 44. The 60 covers a grill and side burner, and the 72 covers a cook line with a griddle or double side burner.
What are the spacer brackets for?
The brackets move the hood 4 or 8 inches out from the wall over the grates on a deep counter or behind a thick backsplash. Each supported width has matching brackets that hide behind the hood. Fit them during installation to position your Summerset vent hood.
