Vent-A-Hood PRH18-M42 42-Inch M-Series 1035 CFM 304 Stainless Steel Outdoor Range Hood

Since 1933, Vent-A-Hood has been the gold standard in residential ventilation, trusted by homeowners who refuse to compromise on air quality or craftsmanship.

Key Features & Owner Benefits:

  • Powerful M1200 Blower Motor: The M1200 internal blower delivers a full 1,035 CFM of airflow at just 6.6 Sones, providing the power needed to clear heavy smoke, grease, and cooking odors from high-output outdoor grills, professional-style burners, and commercial-grade cooking equipment.
  • Industrial-Grade Stainless Steel Baffle Filters: Professional-grade stainless steel baffles intercept airborne grease before it can enter the ductwork, protecting your ventilation system and reducing the risk of grease-related fire hazards over time. Baffles snap out for quick removal and clean thoroughly in a standard dishwasher.
  • 4-Speed Blower Control: Four distinct fan speed settings give you precise airflow control — from a gentle background setting for low-heat warming to full 1,035 CFM power for high-heat grilling and searing.
  • Professional 27-Inch Capture Depth: A deeper canopy than standard residential hoods provides an expanded capture zone directly above high-output burners, containing smoke, grease, and odors before they escape into covered patio areas.
  • 304-Grade Stainless Steel Construction: Heavy-gauge 304-grade stainless steel resists corrosion, UV exposure, and temperature extremes, ensuring the hood maintains structural integrity and appearance in demanding outdoor environments.
  • VP566 Transition & 10-Inch Round Ducting: The included VP566 transition adapter connects the M1200 blower directly to 10-inch round ducting for straightforward installation with no additional adapters or modifications required.
  • Variable LED Lighting with 2-Level Dimming: Three integrated LED bulbs provide bright task lighting for active cooking and a dimmed ambient setting for evening entertaining, reducing the need for additional overhead fixtures.
  • Outdoor Rated for Covered Patios: Engineered for outdoor installation in covered patio environments with a GFCI-protected circuit, making this hood the definitive choice for luxury outdoor kitchens built to perform and endure.

The Industry Standard in High-Performance Outdoor Ventilation

The Vent-A-Hood PRH18-M42 is a commercial-style ventilation system built for homeowners who operate high-output cooking equipment in covered outdoor kitchens. Since 1933, Vent-A-Hood has focused exclusively on ventilation engineering — a single-category expertise that has produced innovations no full-line appliance manufacturer has replicated.

The M1200 blower motor is the workhorse of the M-Series lineup. At 1,035 CFM with four-speed control, it delivers enough power to handle professional-style cooking equipment, high-BTU gas burners, and large-format outdoor grills while giving the cook precise speed adjustment for lighter tasks. At just 6.6 Sones at high speed, the M1200 keeps noise levels manageable even in open-air entertaining environments where conversation matters.

Industrial-grade stainless steel baffle filters are the M-Series filtration system. Unlike mesh filters that clog quickly and require frequent replacement, stainless steel baffles redirect airflow to separate grease from the air stream, channeling it away from the ductwork. The baffles are removable and dishwasher-safe, making regular maintenance a straightforward task rather than a hands-and-knees scrubbing project.

The entire unit is constructed from heavy-gauge 304-grade stainless steel, rated for outdoor installation in covered patio environments. At 42 inches wide and 27 inches deep, it provides the capture area necessary to handle professional-width cooktops and high-BTU burners without smoke escape. The included VP566 transition connects directly to 10-inch round ducting, and Vent-A-Hood recommends smooth-walled metal ductwork for optimal airflow. Mounting height should be 30 inches above the cooking surface for optimal performance.


5 Reasons to Choose Vent-A-Hood Over Cheaper Alternatives

01

1,035 CFM of Real Power

The M1200 blower delivers serious airflow for high-heat cooking, professional-style ranges, and outdoor grills — power that budget hoods simply cannot match.

304-Grade Outdoor Durability

Heavy-gauge 304-grade stainless steel resists corrosion, UV exposure, and temperature extremes — built to last in demanding outdoor kitchen environments.

04

Dishwasher-Safe Maintenance

05

90 Years of Ventilation Expertise

Vent-A-Hood has done one thing since 1933 — build range hoods. That single-category focus produces a level of engineering no full-line appliance brand can match.
