Why is my range hood white?
This is a protective layer that is placed on all of our range hoods to prevent shipping
damage. This should be easy removable by peeling it off.

What size hood should I choose for CFM purposes?
1. You must determine the output of the cooktop burners of your range; this is
measured in British Thermal Units (BTUs).
2. You should provide 100 CFM of airflow per linear foot of range. To determine
this, divide the BTU rating of your range by 100. This will give you the rating of the
Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM’s) rating needed of your range hood. For example: If
your range is 35,000 BTUs, your range hood should have a rating of 350 CFM’s or
greater.
3. To determine the size of the range hood for satisfactory capture, it is recommended
to go at least one size larger than your range, about 3˝ to 6˝ wider. At minimum, it
should be the same size of your range. The range hood width should cover 100% of
the back burners and 50% of the front burners.
4. The height of your range hood should be between 30˝ to 36˝ above your
cooktop. Example: 60,000 BTU’s = 600CFM’s
