Why is my vent hood not removing smoke or odour?
If you’re noticing that your vent hood is not removing smoke or unwanted odours from your kitchen, these troubleshooting tips may help you determine the cause: - Verify that the controls are properly set in accordance with the Owner’s Manual. - Ensure that the grease filter is installed and properly cleaned. - Make sure ventilation is not interfered with by other air movement devices such as ceiling fans, air conditioner registers, etc. - Determine if an existing makeup air system is installed in your kitchen. - Ensure that the vent system was installed correctly.
