When building a custom hood for a liner, always follow all applicable construction codes and standards.
See the illustrations and table below to locate your liner choice and use corresponding custom hood
base dimensions. For the liner installation, only the bottom of the custom hood is needed. Do not
finalize the entire custom hood yet, because an opening is needed for the insert.
