I ordered the insert listed here that you said would fit. It does not fit. I'm an pissed off. Why can't you guys just suggest which inserts to purchase with your freaking product? It's not easy returning a heavy freight item. Not to mention this throws off the timeline of my entire project. On this question page alone, you've been asked by more than one person to just suggest the proper blower to buy to go into your product. Why can't you just do that? Not to mention that my original question was posted on May 9th and it took you guys 10 days just to tell me that the hood I had picked out would work "to the best of your knowledge". If you're going to build these things for people and charge $1500 for them, why not help get the correct thing to go inside them? You could likely even work a deal with manufactures to give you a cut on anyone you refer to buy their product. Instead, people like me have to try to figure this stuff out on our own because whoever answers here has no idea.

You need a 900CFM system. We can do a listing for that if you would like

Did you get feedback or a solution from the seller on this? I’m about to buy but want to make sure I have the correct insert to match the 48” hood?

Marisa,

We have 350, 500, 900, and 1200 CFM ventilators available. Do you know how much CFM you need?

Our 900 CFM ventilator is designed to fit our 30" and 36" hood models and our 1200 CFM ventilator is designed to fit our 42" and 48" hood models, so you will need the 1200. Below is a link to the ventilator and liner.
