ABSTRACT:
A range hood (2) mounted above a kitchen range (4) includes one or more storage shelves (6, 8) in the hood. An adjustable tilt-out front panel (22) is adaptable to include openable doors (24) for accessing the shelves, and is operated by a user between a position flush with adjacent cabinetry (20) or the like, and an extended position increasing the vapor collection area above the range. A gravity operated baffle (30) maintains integrity of the collection area liner by covering the additional collection area when the front panel is in the tilted-out position or any position inbetween. The housing (14) for the hood has an upper portion (16) and a lower depending portion (18) adjustably mounted to the upper portion to provide an adjustable overall vertical height. A hood mounting system provides built-in three dimensional adjustment and allows an installer to restrict adjustments to a single plane at a time for final fine tuning adjustment.
