Vent-A-Hood JDH354/C3 SS Designer Concave Wall Mount Hood with Magic Lung Blower 54-Inch Wide in Stainless Steel
The Vent-A-Hood JDH354/C3 SS Designer Series 54 in wall-mount range hood pairs a graceful stainless steel concave silhouette with 900 CFM airflow, 1350 CFM Equivalent performance1 and Magic Lung centrifugal ventilation. Rated at 6.3 sones, or approximately 57 dB, on high speed, it combines powerful capture with reduced operating noise. A SensaSource heat sensor automatically raises blower speed as cooking temperatures climb, while four 2700K warm-white LEDs with dual-level dimming support focused prep lighting or softer ambiance.
The large open canopy gathers smoke, heat, odors and grease at the cooking surface, then separates grease without conventional mesh or baffle filters. Removable dishwasher-safe collection and blower components make ongoing care more straightforward.
Key Features
900 CFM Magic Lung Ventilation
Magic Lung takes a different approach to clearing cooking vapors. The open canopy draws in smoke, odors and heat, while centrifugal force separates 99% of grease from the airflow rather than depending on restrictive mesh or baffle filters.
Quiet 6.3-Sone High-Speed Performance
Removing filter restrictions helps the blower maintain strong airflow with less noise than conventional filter-based systems. Even at its 900 CFM high setting, the hood carries a 6.3-sone, 56.8 dB sound rating.
Filter-Free E-Z Clean Maintenance
There are no ventilation filters to scrub or replace. The E-Z Clean grease collection tray, snap-apart blower housing and blower wheels can all be removed and placed in the dishwasher, simplifying the messiest part of hood care.
SensaSource Automatic Heat Response
When cooking temperatures rise, the SensaSource heat sensor increases blower speed automatically. Ventilation can adapt to extra heat without requiring a manual adjustment while you are tending the cooktop.
Enhanced Fire Safety
Magic Lung removes grease before the airflow reaches the ductwork. This design helps limit grease accumulation in the duct and reduces the associated potential for flame spread.
Four Dimmable 2700K LED Lights
Four warm-white LED lights illuminate the cooking area, while dual-level dimming lets you switch between brighter task lighting and a lower setting for entertaining or everyday ambiance.
Designer Series Concave Silhouette
The curved stainless steel canopy gives Vent-A-Hood JDH354/C3 SS a graceful profile suited to decorative wall-mount installations. Optional matching duct covers can conceal ductwork above the hood for a more finished transition to the ceiling.
Covered Outdoor Installation
Vent-A-Hood JDH354/C3 SS is suitable for a covered outdoor cooking area when connected to a GFCI-protected branch circuit, extending its ventilation performance beyond an indoor kitchen.

Footnotes:
1 CFM (cubic ft/min) measures ventilation power. Because Magic Lung moves air more efficiently than other brands, use Equivalent CFM for comparisons.
Matching wall-mount duct covers are optional and sold separately.
Choose a hood at least as wide as the cooktop, or 3 in-6 in wider for optimal performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
No. Magic Lung technology uses centrifugal force to separate 99% of grease from the airflow instead of relying on conventional mesh or baffle filters, so there are no filters to scrub or replace. The E-Z Clean grease collection tray, snap-apart blower housing and blower wheels are removable and dishwasher-safe for easier maintenance.
-
For optimum ventilation performance, the bottom edge should be mounted no more than 30 in above the cooking surface.
-
A minimum 10 in round duct, or 79 sq. in. equivalent, is required for the 900 CFM blower configuration. Use smooth galvanized metal ductwork vented outdoors; do not reduce the duct size or use flexible or corrugated duct. A VP562 standard transition is included.
-
The high-speed sound rating is 6.3 sones, or approximately 56.8 dB. Magic Lung technology reduces operating noise by moving air without restrictive mesh or baffle filters.
