Seems to me that either the Broan or the Zephyr could work okay for your application. There won't be any code requirements for hood power -- the "needing more CFM" is simply a rule of thumb for a worst case scenario that assumes you have all five burners running on the maximum possible heat. Are you figuring on running five woks at a time or five pasta pots on full boil at once? Where regulations may apply is with make-up air (MUA). For places that have . codes requiring MUA, the requirement generally kicks in at around 400 cfm. Even without regulations, it is a very good idea to check out your house to be sure that when you "really suck up the air out of the kitchen" you are not backdrafting fire places, gas furnaces or gas water heaters. I do not have any first hand experience with Broan QP430 but I note that it is a couple of inches less deep than the Zephyr, so it won't extend quite as far over the front burners. (Actually, if you can swing the space, the recommendation here would be to get a 36" hood for better capture over a 30" range.) I have had a 36" 650 CFM Zephyr Cylcone for about 13 years without issues. I used it over a GE dual-fuel range for the first 10 of those years and then over pro-style NXR since then and it has been pretty much good for my needs. Curries are about the only thing that seems to have lingering aromas, but that is pretty hard to control no matter how good your hood. The old Zephyr is similar to the current Hurricane except that the Hurricane is a couple of inches taller and has a bit of a canopy form that will help a little with collection of vapors. My Zephyr uses the same of grease capture system that bobbykauaiboy describes for the current Hurricane, and I can testify to its effectiveness. About three years ago, when I had to relocate the ducting run (long story, don't ask) and the ducting had been in daily use for decade, I found no real grease build-up. There was barely even a thin grease film in the ducting upstream from the hood. So, I agree with bobbykauaiboy on the effectiveness of Zephyr's grease capture design. My older Zephyr also fits in the category of "not the quietest" so I'm not sure how meaningful that 2 sones rating is for the Hurricane. Not sure what to make of the Spagna Vetro manufacturer blurb above. Apparently Houszz is encouraging this kind of thing. (Oh-oh, there goes the chronic-old-fart warning alarm.) Been years since I recall seeing any gw posts about the brand. Try a search using "gardenweb + spagna vetro" and see what turns up. If you are not Canadian, note the "ca" web address. The only other thing I can recall about the brand is that, like many Euro-style designs, they only project about 18" out from the wall, barely more than an OTR. With a 900 CFM fan, you will definitely want to look into MUA.

Well, growing up with a father who was a State Farm agent for 40 years, and my having worked for State Farm for many years, I look at having massive tall trees right next to one's house in hurricane areas as a claim waiting to happen. At some point, local towns and cities are going to have to stop planting massively tall trees in these locations, and stop allowing local residents to plant them, too. We need to get our heads out of the sand, and accept what is happening, and we have to adjust our priorities. Yesterday, on CNN they were showing a pine tree right next to a house and the tree was hanging right over it, blowing nearly sideways!! They were saying it was looking like it was going to fall over any minute on the house. How can people live like that! .No amount of shade is worth that. And besides, planting a 100-150ft tall tree......... for shade? Really??? Good grief. My sister lived in Florida for a long time, and she lived on a large property with hundreds of pine trees. Her home looked positively swamped out, but she had shade. lol It was like midnight 24/7 at her house! She was in heaven. I'm the complete opposite. I crave light, and heat. My sister had several trees come down, but none that were right up against her house. She was lucky in that regard..

That is not true, arcy. i don’t know where you get your information(I can guess), but it is flat-out wrong. This is what my dear friend of 40 years wrote Wednesday. She lives in Asheville, her children and sisters all live all live within the devastated area. *********** Thank you to all of you reaching out to check on us. We are fine. Our power returned on day 6 but we don’t have water or internet access. If might be weeks before we get water. We have learned a new meaning of the word “survival” and we are so grateful for what we do have. I am using my sister’s Hotspot to write this. Federal, State and local government have done an outstanding job and we have resources and help pouring in from all over the country. FEMA and volunteer organizations have been here providing for those in need. I’m touched by the humanity shown amidst all of the devastation and destruction around us. Please pray for those who lost their lives (72 in our county so far) and the 200+ people in Buncombe County who are still missing. Love you all! ❤️ ************** Perhaps you should consider using legitimate sources for information.

Roses unlimited has updated their website with a statement about impacts from Hurricane Helene. I copiied and pasted the statement below: To all our customers We were affected by Hurricane Helene early Friday morning Sept. 27. We had heavy rain, sustained winds of 40mph with wind gust up to 70mph to 100mph. The greenhouses suffered minor damage. There are numerous large trees down. We have had no power, no phone service, spotty cell service and spotty internet access. If you had an order that should have shipped out the week of Oct 1st we will gladly issue a refund. The extended loss of power has left us with no water and we cannot run the greenhouse fans or the rooting bed. With a generator we are now able to get water to the plants. The rooting bed is being seen to manually. This natural disaster will cause some issues with our inventory for 2025. We will have loss in our rooting bed. We may have no power until Monday Oct. 7th. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers. And to all of those who suffered greater loss we are praying for all. Thank you: Roses Unlimited
