Best® Range Hoods Deliver Professional Style, Performance

Hartford, Wis., May 1, 2009 – To respond to homeowner demand for an island hood tailored for a more professional cooking style, Best® has introduced a new addition to its line of kitchen ventilation products. The IP29 Series of Professional Island Range Hoods offers an elegant combination of form and function apart from the typical professional style range hood.

"The IP29 Series is the best solution for homeowners to improve indoor air quality," according to Brian Wellnitz, marketing manager, kitchen ventilation, Broan-NuTone. "There is no other upscale product out there that combines so many features yet maintains an unparalleled level of simplicity. This is the perfect solution for homeowners with professional-style taste and/or professional-style cooking needs."

The IP29 Series is the first range hood to offer the LinkLogic™ System. LinkLogic uses the INSTEON™ platform to allow homeowners to communicate with other enabled ventilation products in the home. With LinkLogic, homeowners also have the option of a remote control device to operate the range hood, ideal for those who have difficulty reaching the control panel on the hood.

Available in 42-inch and 54-inch widths and a 32-inch depth, the IP29 Series features a seamless welded design which creates a flawless appearance and a professional grade stainless steel finish which gives it lasting quality and durability.

• Advanced LCD display electronic push button control which provides many capabilities including last setting memory – remembering primary blower speed, air-refresh setting and multiple speed and light settings
• Six to eight halogen lamps for a brilliant cooking environment
• A drywall trim kit for custom design of the flue extension, allowing homeowners to create their own unique signature on their kitchen's centerpiece
