36 inch rectangular mantel liner gives a defined stainless steel interior for a wood range hood, so the ventilator sits in a shaped metal shell instead of exposed wood. The liner is part of the Premium Rectangular Wood Range Hood Liners from VMI, Inc., which focuses this piece on wood range hoods rather than general duct parts. The mantel-style rectangular layout matches a traditional wood mantel hood profile, helping the ventilator nest into a consistent opening. Being categorized as a Range Hood Liner places this product as the inner metal chamber that pairs with a separate ventilator, so it forms the capture area that protects the outer hood structure. The 36 inch identification supports planning around a 36 inch hood run, keeping the liner matched to that width family for layout and cutout decisions.
The rectangular mantel liner format gives a defined metal box for a wood range hood opening, so installers can frame the hood shell around a known opening rather than improvising each interior shape. The 36 inch designation focuses the layout around a typical 36 inch cooking width, which simplifies cabinet design and alignment over a matching range or cooktop width class. Because this product is a stainless steel liner, the interior of the hood uses a stable metal surface around the ventilator instead of raw wood panels, which supports a consistent edge for finishing cuts and joint alignment. Being designed for the Air-Pro 06WP, 06E, 07WP ventilators, the liner geometry aligns with that ventilator family, so the fan housing sits within a matching stainless boundary that guides cutouts and clearances.
This wood range hood liner is intended for installations that use Air-Pro 06WP, 06E, or 07WP ventilators, so it fits projects built around that specific ventilator family. The rectangular mantel format supports traditional mantel-style wood range hoods, where a defined metal interior is preferred behind decorative trim and molding. The 36 inch designation directs it to 36 inch hood layouts, making it suitable when cabinets and appliances are organized around that common width. As a Range Hood Liners class product, it serves as the interior shell of the hood, giving the ventilator a shaped cavity rather than relying on loose paneling. Being a premium rectangular wood range hood liner from VMI, Inc. aligns it with wood hood projects where the ventilator and liner are planned together.
The VMI 9045 SUS mantel liner part number ties this specific piece to a repeatable stainless liner geometry, which helps shops reproduce the same hood interior across multiple builds. The stainless steel construction creates a rigid, uniform interior face for the Air-Pro ventilator body, which supports repeatable cutout sizing when building multiple hoods around 06WP, 06E, or 07WP ventilators. The rectangular shape simplifies layout because sides and transitions follow straight lines, which helps when transferring measurements to wood components or templates. Being identified as a wood range hood liner keeps its role focused on pairing a metal interior with a wood exterior, so builders can separate decorative carpentry from the stainless cavity that defines the ventilator space. The mantel liner description further narrows expectations to mantel-style hood designs, which helps align this liner with projects that use that profile.
