Common Types of Range Hoods We Repair

There are a variety of vent hood types. Using a mechanical fan and filtration, some hoods push air outside your home, while others merely filter and recirculate it. No matter what type you have, Be Tech Appliance Repair is always ready to perform expert range hood repair service for you.

• Ducted: These vent hoods exhaust air to the outside of your home.

• Non-Ducted or Recirculated: These hoods recirculate air after filtering it.

• Under-Cabinet: Typically non-ducted, these vent hoods have replaceable filters.

• Wall-Mounted Chimney: Installed against the wall and look like a home chimney.

• Ceiling-Mounted Chimney: Also called island hoods, typically suspended above cooking islands.

• Custom Built-In: Blend in with cabinetry and have ventilation built into the wall.

We commonly service brands like Cavaliere, Broan, and Kobe, but our service professionals have experience with many others. Not only will we repair it correctly the first time; we’ll also provide upfront pricing, an explanation of the work we recommend, and excellent customer service.

Frequently Asked Questions

​

Does a range hood need a dedicated circuit?

No, as long as you keep an eye on your amperage use. Range hoods draw between five and seven amps, so make sure any vent hoods that need to be plugged in are connected to a circuit with less powerful appliances and the spare amperage to keep it running.

​

Can you use a flexible duct for a range hood?

No. Flexible duct material is not sturdy enough and is difficult to clean and maintain. A rigid duct made of stainless steel is your best choice for range hood duct ventilation. Your ductwork also needs to be appropriately sized for your unit: four-inch duct for 400 CFM or below, up to ten-inch for 1200 CFM or higher.

​

How do I know if my range hood is ductless?

If you can’t visibly see ductwork in your kitchen, your vent hood is likely ductless and recirculating the air in your kitchen. Double-check outside for a vent on the outer wall, and see if your hood came with filters or a recirculating kit, which comes with ductless setups.
