The best width for a trimmable wood chimney should closely match the width of your range hood for both functional and aesthetic reasons. Width impacts the visual balance above your cooktop and ensures proper coverage for venting. Common widths include 11-3/8" for 30" hoods, 17-3/8" for 36" hoods, 23-3/8" for 42" hoods, and 29-3/8" for 48" hoods. Choosing the right width ensures a snug fit and a professional look. For example, the RCH30MUF1 fits 30" hoods with an 11-3/8" width, while the RCH48MUF1 is designed for 48" hoods at 29-3/8" wide. With various widths available, you can select a chimney that aligns perfectly with your hood.
