troubleshooting
NOTHING WORKS (Control Panel not lit, Blower not working)
Solution 1: Turn on power at circuit breaker panel or fuse box. Check for
tripped breaker or blown fuse.
Solution 2: Make sure hood main power switch is on.
LIGHTS NOT TURNING ON
Solution 1: see “nothing works”
Solution 2: Swap out lights to determine if bulbs are defective.
RANGE HOOD VIBRATES WHEN BLOWER IS ON
Solution: Make sure the range hood has been secured properly to the ceiling
or wall.
BLOWER SYSTEM SEEMS WEAK
Solution 1: Increase the fan speed, ensure that it is at a high enough setting.
Solution 2: Make sure the ducting is sized correctly. Range hood will not
function efficiently with insufficient duct size (IE, 9” duct over 8” hole)
Solution 3: Check to see if duct is clogged or if damper unit (half-circular
flapper) is installed incorrectly. A tight mesh on a side wall cap unit might
also cause restriction to the air flow.
AIR NOT VENTING OUT PROPERLY
Solution 1: Make sure there is at least 28” (71 cm) between the stove top
and the bottom of the hood
Solution 2: Reduce the number of elbows and length of duct work. Check to
ensure all joints are properly connected, sealed, and taped.
Solution 3: Make sure power is on high speed for heavy cooking.
