Hood fans that quit in Wood Dale
Range hoods in Wood Dale have a lot of years on them: about half the city was built between 1960 and 1979. The most common call is a fan that will not start. We test the control switch, the fuse inside the unit and the control board, and if those pass, the motor has usually burned out. The second call is a hood that runs but does not clear the smoke, which comes down to grease-clogged filters or a blocked duct. The third is lights that fail, usually a socket or switch rather than the bulb. Wood Dale is a few minutes from our Glendale Heights shop.

Ductless range hoods in Wood Dale townhomes
Wood Dale has around 850 townhomes and 1,250 condos. Many of those kitchens have no duct to the outside. The range hood pulls air through a charcoal filter and blows it back into the room. When the filter is packed with grease, the fan strains and the smoke stays. A hood like this also has a metal mesh filter under it. We clean or swap both, then test the fan motor under load. If the motor hums but the fan will not spin, the bearings are done. We replace the motor and set the new filters.

Range hood problems are mechanical and electrical, rarely both. A fan that stays silent when the lights still work is a motor or switch. Poor suction that leaves smoke and grease in the kitchen is a clogged filter, a blocked duct or a weak motor. New grinding, rattling or humming means a bearing or blade is on its way out. Flickering lights or dead controls can be a bulb, but more often a control board. We repair wall-mount, island, undercabinet and downdraft ventilation, including downdraft vents that will not raise or lower. Repairs start from $299, and the $79 diagnostic is waived when we do the repair.
