What to do if my Excelsior Ventilation Hood is not venting out properly?
If your Excelsior Ventilation Hood isn't venting properly, ensure the distance between the cooktop and the hood's bottom is within 120mm and 1350mm. Confirm there's only one elbow or bend in the ducting. Check that all joints are correctly connected, sealed, and taped. Also, ensure the power is set to high speed when cooking heavily.
Why does the blower on my Excelsior Ventilation Hood seem weak?
If the blower on your Excelsior Ventilation Hood seems weak, verify that the duct size used is at least 150 mm, as the range hood won't function efficiently with an insufficient duct size. Also, inspect the duct for clogs and ensure the damper unit opens correctly. A tight mesh on a side wall cap unit could restrict airflow. Make sure the ducting is free of multiple bends, because more than one 90° bend will restrict airflow.
Why Excelsior Ventilation Hood vibrates when the blower is on?
If your Excelsior Ventilation Hood vibrates when the blower is on, it might not be secured properly to the ceiling.
How to fix an Excelsior Ventilation Hood that does not operate after installation?
If your Excelsior Ventilation Hood doesn't operate after installation, check if it's plugged in, ensure all power is turned on, and verify all electrical wiring is properly connected. You can also swap out the light assembly with working ones to see if defective bulbs are the cause.
