This VMI rectangular liner is the metal insert that bridges a wood hood shell and a compatible Air-Pro ventilator, finished in Black to coordinate with dark cabinet hardware and interior color palettes.
A wood range hood is assembled from three distinct parts: the decorative wood shell that frames the space, the liner that sits inside and provides structural housing, and the ventilator that does the actual air moving. This liner is the middle layer. It seats inside the wood shell and holds the Air-Pro ventilator in position so the full assembly functions as a finished, integrated hood. Without a correctly sized and finished liner, the shell and the ventilator cannot connect properly.
The rectangular form and the specific hole dimensions are matched to the Air-Pro ventilator models listed, so the ventilator drops into the liner and the liner drops into the shell as a cohesive unit rather than a loose assembly of parts.
The Black finish on this liner is visible inside the hood opening and along the interior surfaces that frame the ventilator. In kitchens with matte black or dark hardware, two-tone cabinetry, or darker wood stains, the Black liner keeps the hood interior from reading as an interruption. It is a detail that registers most when the hood sits above a light-colored range or contrasting backsplash, where the interior of the shell is in plain view during cooking. Kitchens built around lighter hardware or warmer wood tones are better served by one of the other finish options in this liner family.
Cabinet shops and designers specifying a custom wood hood with an Air-Pro ventilator will select this liner when the kitchen calls for a dark interior finish. It is also the right choice when a homeowner is retrofitting an Air-Pro ventilator into an existing wood shell and wants the liner finish to match updated hardware rather than carry over a finish that no longer fits the space. Confirm the ventilator model from the compatible list and verify the shell dimensions against the liner's overall width and depth before ordering, since the liner is matched to both the ventilator and the shell opening.
No. This is the liner only. The Air-Pro ventilator and the decorative wood hood shell are separate purchases. This liner connects the two.
The Air-Pro 011, 01A, 021, 02A, and 04. Confirm the model number on the ventilator before ordering.
The liner sits inside the wood shell, so the Black finish is visible along the interior surfaces that frame the ventilator opening. How visible it is depends on the shell design and how open the hood face is.
Yes. This liner family is offered in additional finishes. Select the finish that matches the hood interior or the surrounding hardware.
Specify this Black-finish liner when the ventilator is an Air-Pro from the compatible series and the kitchen calls for a dark interior that holds together with the rest of the hardware.
