Company Announcements

Customizable sizes, decorative finishes, and ventilation options bring a tailored statement to kitchen design

SAN FRANCISCO , Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Zephyr, the company that has transformed the kitchen through design, discovery, and customer care, today announced the introduction of the Alto Wall Custom Hood, a customizable ventilation solution designed to complement a wide range of kitchen styles. Featuring a refined, contemporary silhouette and distinctive decorative banding, Alto gives homeowners and designers the flexibility to create a statement piece tailored to their kitchen's aesthetic and cooking needs.

Available in 36-inch and 48-inch widths, the Alto Wall Custom Hood features a sculptural profile with polished stainless steel banding for a sleek, professional look. For added personalization, optional banding kits in polished gold or polished copper allow consumers to coordinate the hood with kitchen hardware, fixtures, and other finishes. An optional 12-inch duct cover, which can be stacked to accommodate taller ceilings, extends the tailored look with coordinating decorative banding.

Designed to deliver performance as distinctive as its appearance, Alto pairs with a selection of Zephyr Monsoon ventilation inserts, sold separately, offering blower options ranging from 300 CFM to 1,300 CFM. Compatible inserts include the Monsoon Mini, Monsoon Mini II, Monsoon I, and Monsoon Connect, allowing homeowners to select the ventilation power and features best suited to their cooking needs.

The Monsoon Mini offers a 300-CFM blower with three-speed mechanical controls, dual-level LumiLight LED lighting, and hybrid baffle filters. For greater ventilation power, the Monsoon Mini II delivers up to 600 CFM, while the Monsoon I offers additional performance options, including an optional 1,200-CFM blower. The Monsoon Connect features a 700-CFM PowerWave™ blower with an optional 1,300-CFM dual blower, professional stainless steel baffle filters, tri-level LumiLight LED lighting, and proximity touch controls. Select Monsoon inserts also feature Zephyr's exclusive Airflow Control Technology™ (ACT™), which allows installers to limit maximum blower output to meet local code requirements.

"Alto is designed for kitchens where every detail matters," said Dean Striler, President of Zephyr. "With its sculptural silhouette, customizable finishes, and versatile ventilation options, it gives homeowners and designers the freedom to create a look that's uniquely their own without compromising performance."
