Stone Hoods For All

Are you a kitchen and bath showroom owner?
A certified kitchen designer?
A contractor?

As it been difficult to find a showroom where your clients can see a pre-cast stone kitchen hood?
Here are just a few reasons why?
?A cast ?cement? kitchen hood can weigh over 900 pounds. They are made out of several pieces and will require a framed structure on which they are installed. Standard kitchen showroom walls will not support these hoods.

?Installation requires several different licensed expensive contractors.
?A designer or architect, a framing contractor, a dry-wall contractor and finally a mason or a tile contractor to assemble the puzzle.
?The ?cast stone? is ordered and fabricated to specification. This takes 3 to 4 weeks.
?The showroom becomes a messy construction site for 3 weeks.
?Once constructed, model change would be prohibitive.

FINALLY THERE IS AN ANSWER

?Made from reclaimed crushed travertine stone.
?Light enough to be mounted like a kitchen upper cabinet.
?Uni-body construction.
?Installed in less than 1 hour.
?No framing or drywall needed.
?Accepts all blower brands.
?Can be faux finished, stained, burnished or left alone in its natural color.

EURO CAST DESIGN presents its line of ultra light weight cast travertine kitchen hood.

These decorative kitchen hoods come in several different designs and sizes. All our models are manufactured in one piece. Our largest range hood is the Josephine ornate R-48. With a beautiful carved mantel its lifting weight is only 280 pounds, roughly a quarter of the weight of a similar cast stone cement unit. In fact some of the more traditional wood range hood would weight that much. With the proprietary system that Euro Cast Design developed, we are able to offer the consumer for the first time a real stone hood that will fit in 36? wall space.

Available for 8, 9 and 10 foot tall ceilings we have the ability to customize the unit?s height if needed. Customize these kitchen hoods is easy. Although there is only one color available (natural blond travertine) you can change its color buy using translucent water base latex glazes. These glazes will not mask the texture and the feel of stone. Making your own glaze is simple. Add more or less pigment or liquid tint of your choice so you obtain and control your own color scheme. Remember that you can always add or darken a color more easily then lightened it.

You can also incorporate other plant-on decorative elements such as relief tiles or mosaic. We had a customer add an inlay of mosaic with metal coated accents tile. Of course you could always commission Euro Cast Design to do a one of a kind carved relief range hood to your proper specification.
