Microwave range hoods in Bartlett kitchens
Many Bartlett owners replaced the old range hood with an over-the-range microwave. It has its own vent fan, grease filters and a charcoal filter for recirculating. The fan may switch on by itself when the cooktop below gets hot. That is a built-in safety feature, not a fault. A fan that runs nonstop with the cooktop off, or never runs, is a real problem. A bad thermal switch, a stuck relay or a failed fan motor is usually to blame.
Fixing a Bartlett microwave hood
We test the thermal switch, the relay on the control board and the fan motor. Then we check the filters and the damper on the vent. Most fixes are one switch or one motor. The Bartlett quote is firm before we unbolt the microwave. A switch or motor fitted by us wipes out the $79 diagnostic. Morning or night, we book from 6am to 9pm.
Bartlett range hoods that vent into the room, not outside
Many builder hoods from the 1980s have no duct to the outside. Bartlett grew fastest in the 1980s, so plenty of those hoods are still in place. That kind of hood pulls air through a grease filter and pushes it back out. A loaded filter chokes the fan, so the smoke hangs in the kitchen. A fan that has gone quiet has a bad switch, fuse or motor. Lights that stay dark after a new bulb have a bad socket. We check the switch, the motor and the filter, then quote the fix.
If your hood does vent outside, we check that duct for a block too. Call (312) 600-6540 and we will get you booked in.
