Broan® Elite Range Hoods Bring True Professional Style, Performance to Any Kitchen

Hartford, Wis., May 1, 2009 – Homeowners are finally able to achieve the professional, modern kitchen of their dreams with the new Broan® Elite E64000 and E60000 series of range hoods. These hoods provide an out-of-the-box solution that transforms any kitchen into a professional yet stylish cooking environment designed for culinary appreciation.

"The Broan Elite 64000 and 60000 Range Hoods are two of the quietest range hoods in the industry, operating at two Sones or less at normal speed and have a unique combination of features that are more attractive than many of its competitors," according to Brian Wellnitz, marketing manager, kitchen ventilation, Broan-NuTone. "Setting Broan apart from the competition is the Heat Sentry® feature, which monitors for excessive heat and automatically turns the unit on high when needed. This feature is offered on both models and ensures proper household ventilation and years of trouble free operation."

Both models offer additional ventilation choices with several external blower options ranging from 280 to 1,500 CFM in all widths. In those cases, when proper ventilation to the outdoors is not possible, a recirculation kit is available. Each range hood also features bright halogen lighting; pro-style, dishwasher-safe baffle filters with a removable grease drip rail; and variable speed controls.
