Broan-NuTone Adds More ENERGY STAR Range Hood Choices
Broan-NuTone reported the introduction of six new ENERGY STAR-certified range hood models in its 2024 program highlights. The company framed the additions as more energy-efficient choices for kitchen ventilation and described related training and marketing efforts to help customers identify certified products.
An ENERGY STAR label gives shoppers a defined point of comparison, but it does not replace a full product check. Hood width, capture area, sound level, ducting options, and installation requirements still affect whether a model suits a particular kitchen. The U.S. ENERGY STAR ventilating fan criteria include requirements for airflow efficiency and sound, and models must be certified before the label is used.
For anyone renovating, the practical step is to shortlist hoods that fit the hob and installation plan, then compare certified options within that shortlist. This keeps energy use in view without losing sight of day-to-day cooking performance.
