Grease buildup that won't clear with cleaning
The fan runs but nothing seems to be pulled out
What's Usually Behind a Vent Hood Breakdown
Here's what our technicians find most often when they look at a vent hood in a Dacula home.
Grease-clogged filters
The single most common cause of weak suction, and often an easy fix with a good cleaning or filter swap.
A worn fan motor
After years of use, the motor can weaken and lose the power to pull air effectively.
A blocked exhaust duct
Grease and debris can build up in the ductwork itself, restricting airflow even with a healthy fan.
A faulty light or control switch
Wiring or switch issues can knock out the light or fan speed controls independently of each other.

Vent Hood Repair Questions

Most manufacturers recommend cleaning metal mesh filters monthly if you cook often, and replacing charcoal filters every few months since they can't be washed and reused.
Loud rattling or grinding usually points to a worn fan motor or bearing, or something loose inside the housing. It's worth having checked before the motor fails completely.
