What size range hood do I need for a 48 inch range?

Choose a range hood that covers the full cooking surface, including the front burners. Health Canada recommends that a range hood exhaust fan fully extend over the stove burners for maximum effectiveness. To check depth, measure from the wall to the front edge of your front burners, then compare that distance with the hood's actual depth. Victory lists nominal 48-inch models, so check each model's dimension drawing before choosing.

Can I use a 48 inch wall mount range hood over a BBQ?

Yes, Victory’s Twister BBQ (27 inches deep) and Prestige (32 inches deep) are 48" Wall Mount range hoods designed for BBQs. Victory’s buying guide says a 48 inch hood can be used over small to medium BBQs. The Twister BBQ manual says to measure depth from the wall with the grill lid fully open and to leave enough height for the lid to open. Vent the hood outdoors and check your BBQ maker’s height clearance requirements. The Prestige manual states it is for indoor and covered outdoor spaces.

What size duct does a 48 inch wall mount range hood need?

It depends on the model. Victory’s 48" Wall Mount range hoods list a minimum round duct of 6 inches (Twister), 8 inches (TwisterMAX and Twister BBQ) or 10 inches (Prestige). The Prestige manual lists two 10 inch ducts. Duct size affects airflow, measured in CFM (cubic feet per minute). The Twister spec sheet lists up to 600 CFM on 6 inch duct and up to 750 CFM on 8 inch. The longest acceptable run is 50 feet for a completely straight duct. Each 90 degree elbow uses 9 feet of that, and a wall or roof cap uses 7.

Do I need make-up air for a 48 inch wall mount range hood?

In Canada, whether you need make-up air depends on your province or territory, your municipality and your home, so check with your local building department before you buy. Make-up air is outdoor air brought in to replace the air the hood exhausts. Victory’s 48" Wall Mount range hood manuals warn that running the hood may affect the combustion air that fuel-burning equipment needs. They also tell you to follow the local code authorities. A qualified heating and ventilation contractor can also help. Tell either one your hood’s airflow in CFM (cubic feet per minute) at your duct size and which fuel-burning equipment you have.

What type of duct should I use with a 48 inch wall mount range hood?

Victory’s 48" Wall Mount range hood manuals call for metal or aluminum duct only and recommend rigid duct (solid pipe) where available to maximize airflow. The Twister manual specifically recommends rigid duct instead of flexible duct. Victory’s manuals also say to seal every duct joint with aluminum foil tape. Victory’s Twister, TwisterMAX and Prestige manuals call for insulation wrapped around the duct in colder climates. Your local building department can tell you which duct materials your area allows.

Support mural 48"

The right 48" Wall Mount range hood depends on depth, duct size and airflow in CFM (cubic feet per minute). For kitchens, the Twister is 22 inches deep and the TwisterMAX is 24. For BBQs, the Twister BBQ is 27 inches deep with front-focused suction, and the Prestige is 32 inches deep with two motors you can run separately. Included duct transitions are 6, 8 or 10 inch, but smaller ducts cut airflow, so match your duct to the model. All four list cETLus, UL 507 and CSA C22.2 No. 113 certification.
