How many CFM for Prestige blower?

11 years ago

We have decided on the 36" pro line Prestige blower. The internal blower only comes in 600 cfm and 1200 cfm. We will have a 36" wolf gas oven below. I'm reading that I should ideally have 900 cfm but Prestige does not offer a 900 cfm blower. So do I go with the 600 or the 1200?

If you can afford the 1200cfm, I'd go for the higher one. You don't have to use all that power, but it comes in handy.

You mean 36" wolf gas range, right?

Not just an oven.

Wolf gas range = high power, so I'd go for the 1200.

600 is not good enough.
