Why is my KOBE CHX9130SQB-1 Range hood not venting out correctly?

There are several reasons why your KOBE range hood might not be venting correctly. It could be installed outside the manufacturer's recommended clearance (adjust the clearance between the range hood and cooktop to 26”-30”, or 30”-36” for island range hoods). Insufficient make-up air inside the house can also be a factor, so try opening a window. Obstacles in the duct work or using a pipe size smaller than suggested can also cause this issue. Make sure to remove any obstacles and change the ducting to the manufacturer's suggestion.
