                 g ,

                    Are you concerned about the hood itself or the cabinet surrounding it ??  If it is the wiring and electrical installation then , in many states your license generally will not allow you to do electrical or plumbing unless it is your own house .If a person was not licensed or insured they can be litigated . We can install ready made U.L. approved fixtures , but do no wiring for a client . Follow the clearances for cumbustible surfaces provided by the mfg . spec sheet .

                        good   luck                    dusty

   I would imagine any electician would be delighted to get a call to hook up a vent hood.

   It's about the easiest connection there is................. assuming the romex is hanging there, ready to pulled into the hood's wiring box.

   If you were to actually use the whole hood and cover it in  wood, then there's is probably not a problem(or, is there???)

   "Vent A Hood" makes liners for custom hoods.  We have used quite a few over the years.  But, they aren't cheap.

   There are also a few companies that make wood hoods such as Omega Industries Inc.  Try here    http://www.omegaind.com/php/products.php?p=pl&cid=282e:
