SIZE GUIDE

The following pictures indicate how to choose the appropriate size for your custom range hood:

Wall Mount Range Hood Size Guide:
-Range Hood Height : Ceiling Height - A - B(Stove Height)
-A (distance from cooktop to bottom of range hood): 30"-36"
-Range Hood Width : as Wide as cooktop or 3"-6" Wider
-Range Hood Depth : 21"-24"

Island Mount Range Hood Size Guide:
-Range Hood Height : Ceiling Height - A - B(Stove Height)
-A (distance from cooktop to bottom of range hood): 30"-36"
-Range Hood Width : 3"-6" Wider than cooktop
-Range Hood Depth : 27"

HOW TO CHOOSE THE PERFECT RANGE HOOD SIZE

Follow our professional guide to find the perfect Width, Depth, and Height for your Fobest custom range hood.

1. Range Hood Width: The "Overlap" Rule
To capture all smoke and odors effectively, your range hood should ideally be slightly wider than your cooktop.

Wall Mount Installation: We recommend a hood that is 3" to 6" wider than your cooktop (e.g., a 36" hood for a 30" range). At a minimum, it must be as wide as the cooktop.

Island Mount Installation: Because islands are subject to more cross-drafts, your hood must be 3" to 6" wider than the cooktop to create a proper "capture area."

2. Range Hood Depth: Maximizing Coverage
The depth ensures that the front burners of your stove are fully covered.

Standard Wall Hoods: Typically 21" to 24" deep. This provides a sleek look while covering the primary cooking zones.

Pro-Series & Island Hoods: We recommend a depth of 27" for high-output professional ranges or island setups to ensure no smoke escapes the sides.

3. Range Hood Height & Mounting Distance
Finding the "Sweet Spot" (Distance A in our diagrams) is critical for performance and safety.
The Mounting Height (Distance from Cooktop)
The Standard: Your hood should be installed 30" to 36" above the cooking surface.
Too Low: Risk of heat damage to the internal components and obstruction of your cooking view.
Too High: The CFM (airflow) will lose efficiency, allowing steam and grease to dissipate before reaching the filters.

Calculating the Total Hood Height
To determine how tall your custom hood should be, use this simple formula:
Hood Height = Ceiling Height - Mounting Height (A) - Stove Height (B)
Note: Standard Stove Height (B) is usually 36".

*Example Scenario:
Ceiling Height: 108" (This is a standard 9-foot ceiling).
Stove Height (B): 36" (The industry standard).
Mounting Height (A): 33" (Picking the "Sweet Spot" between 30" and 36").
Hood Height = Ceiling Height(108" - Mounting Height (A)33" - Stove Height (B)36"
Result: 39"H

VENTILATION

-Remote Motor : As an ideal venting method for a quieter kitchen,Remote Blower mounted inside of venting ducts for fresher air and quiet environment.
-Ductless Conversion : With charcoal filters, Ductless Conversion venting options equipped with remote control achieve the purpose of recirculating air through the range hood for ductless kitchens.
-Hood Only : After ordering, please email us with the dimension or specification of your ventilation. We will check for compatibility with the range hood for you.  ✉ : info@fobestappliance.com

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Will the finish change when I select a different material on the website? A: To maintain authenticity, our preview photos remain as real finished products. However, your order will be custom-built exactly to the finish and material you select in the menu.

Q: Can I customize the color of the rivets? A: Yes! Every part of our brass range hoods—from the crown to the pot rail—can be customized to your specific color preference.

Q: Will my hood turn green or dark over time? A: No. Thanks to our protective clear coat, all hood body and accents are sealed. They will not develop a patina or oxidize.

Q: Do I need to apply any wax or polish to the finish? A: No. Our finishes are maintenance-free. Traditional metal polishes can actually damage the protective clear coat, so we recommend only using mild soap and water.

HOW TO ORDER YOUR CUSTOM RANGE HOOD ONLINE: A Step-by-Step Guide

TWO INSTALLATION METHODS 
Installing your new custom metal range hood is simple and efficient with our two recommended mounting methods. Whether you're a contractor or a DIY homeowner, this step-by-step guide will help you complete your kitchen upgrade with confidence and safety.

1. Direct Wall Mounting Using Wall Anchors or Expansion Bolts
Overview: The Top and back of the custom hoods are open. Drill mounting holes through the back of the range hood and secure it directly into the wall using heavy-duty anchors or expansion bolts.

Installation Steps:
1. Mark the Installation Height: Measure and mark the desired installation height — typically 30–36 inches above the cooktop depending on your ceiling height and hood model.
2. Drill the Holes: Hold the hood up to the wall. You can drill anywhere on the hood’s flat back panel to mount it on the wall.

2. Bracket or Hook Mounting
Overview: Secure brackets or heavy-duty hooks on the wall. The hood is then hung onto these brackets for fast setup and easy removal.

Installation Steps:
1. Measure and mount heavy-duty brackets/hooks securely into the wall 
2. Prepare the Hood for Hanging: Carefully measure and drill matching holes into the back of the hood at the same height and spacing as the wall mounts.
3. Hang the Hood: Carefully lift the hood and hang it onto the mounted brackets. Use a level to ensure it sits evenly.

MAINTENANCE
Designed for both performance and convenience, your stainless steel range hood features smooth surfaces and removable filters that make routine cleaning quick and easy.

Regular Cleaning:
Simply wipe down the hood with a soft cloth dampened with warm water.
For stubborn spots, use a mild detergent or a vinegar-water solution.
Always dry the surface immediately to prevent watermarks and keep it looking polished.

Avoid Abrasive Cleaners:
Do not use steel wool, abrasive sponges, or cleaners containing chlorine or bleach.
These substances can scratch or dull the stainless steel finish.

Follow the Grain:
When cleaning or polishing, always wipe in the direction of the grain to maintain the smooth, sleek appearance and avoid micro-scratches.

With minimal upkeep, your stainless steel kitchen hood will continue to perform efficiently while maintaining its modern aesthetic.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RANGE HOOD VENTILATION FOR YOUR KITCHEN
Selecting the proper ventilation system is the most critical step in designing an efficient and clean kitchen. At Fobest, we offer three distinct ventilation paths engineered for performance, durability, and style.

Quick Comparison: Ventilation at a Glance

1. Internal Motor (Motor In The Hood)

The Internal Motor is the industry standard, where the blower system is integrated directly into the hood liner.
-Powerful Suction: Available in configurations ranging from 600 CFM to 1260 CFM.
-Convenience: Easier to install and maintain as all components are accessible within the kitchen.
-Ideal For: Homeowners who want a professional-grade exhaust system with a straightforward installation process.

2. Remote Blower (Motor In The Attic)

By moving the motor away from the kitchen and into the attic or roof space, we drastically reduce ambient noise without sacrificing an ounce of power.
-Silent Performance: You only hear the rush of air, not the mechanical hum of the motor.
-Maximum Airflow: Optimized for large kitchens, delivering a consistent 1260 CFM across all hood sizes (36" to 60").
-Ideal For: Open-concept living areas and gourmet kitchens where conversation and peace are just as important as the cooking.

3. Ductless Conversion (Recirculating Option)

For homes where exterior ducting isn't an option—such as high-rise condos or historic renovations—the Ductless Conversion is the perfect alternative.
-Air Purification: Uses advanced charcoal filters to scrub grease and odors before recirculating clean air back into the kitchen.
-No Renovations Needed: Skip the wall and roof cutting; this system is designed for simple, non-invasive setups.
-Ideal For: Apartment dwellers and kitchens without access to external venting.

Understanding the Specs: Sizing Your Ventilation
Choosing the right CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) depends on your range hood size and cooking style. Below are the technical standards for our vent systems:

For 30" & 36" Hoods

-Internal Option: 600 CFM (Requires 6" Round Ducting)
-Remote Option: 1260 CFM (Requires 8" Round Ducting)
-Lighting: 2 x 3W LED Lights for focused task lighting.

For 42", 48", 54" & 60" Hoods

-High-Volume Airflow: Up to 1260 CFM to handle high-BTU professional ranges.
-Expanded Illumination: 4 x 3W LED Lights to cover the entire cooking surface.
-Ducting: Requires 8" Round top venting to ensure peak efficiency.

How to Choose the Right CFM for Your Range Hood

CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) measures the air volume your hood moves. To find your ideal match, consider your stove type and cooking habits:
-Gas Ranges: You need 100 CFM for every 10,000 BTUs of total burner output. A high-output 60,000 BTU stove requires at least 600 CFM.
-Electric Ranges: A general rule is 10 CFM per inch of stove width. For a 30" cooktop, a 300 CFM motor is sufficient.
-High-Heat Cooking: If you frequently sear, fry, or use a wok, we recommend upgrading to our 1200+ CFM internal or remote blower options to ensure smoke and grease are cleared instantly.

Why Fobest Ventilation?

SUS304 Stainless Steel Construction: Every vent and liner is built with premium-grade steel for maximum heat resistance and longevity.
Ultra-Quiet Technology: Our Single Chamber motors are designed to operate efficiently at 4 different speed settings.
Easy Maintenance: Removable, dishwasher-safe grease filters come standard across all models.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What duct size do I need for a 1260 CFM motor? A: For high-airflow motors (1150-1260 CFM), an 8-inch round duct is required to prevent backpressure and excessive noise.

Q: Is a higher CFM always better for my kitchen? A: Not necessarily. While higher CFM provides more power, it’s important to match it to your stove’s heat output. A 1200+ CFM motor is perfect for high-BTU professional gas ranges, whereas 600 CFM is often the "sweet spot" for standard daily cooking, balancing high efficiency with lower energy consumption.

Q: How high should the hood be installed? A: For optimal performance, the hood should be installed between 30” to 36” above the cooking surface.
