Exhaust repair tips in the kitchen. 5 basic malfunctions
If you are faced with such a situation that the hood in the kitchen does not turn on, or does not pull out, but draws it, then you need to proceed to its repair. In fact, the breakdown is not complicated, t.to. In principle, the device of the exhaust system has a simple design. Next, we will tell the readers the electrician himself, what are the malfunctions of the equipment and how to repair the hood in the kitchen with your own hands.
It is one thing if your kitchen hood is already ten years old and recently it has poorly pulled air. Here you can already not think about repairs, it’s easier to buy new equipment. But what if the purchase has not served you for a year, and the fan can no longer cope or completely out of order? First of all, it is necessary to find out the cause of the malfunction, and then eliminate it on your own. The main “culprits” of the breakdown can be:
- Improper operation of a house exhaust system. Firstly, you must clean the mesh filter (fatty man) at least once every 3 weeks. The coal filter must be completely replaced every six months or when the indication on the panel reports this (a special light is installed in the new models). Secondly, it is forbidden to launch an exhaust fan above the stove on, if it does not have a pan. Hot air can quickly damage the system, which will then be quite difficult to repair yourself. Thirdly, the hood must be turned on 2-3 minutes before the start of cooking and turned off 10-15 minutes after the end of cooking. Otherwise, the fan may not cope with the volume of fumes, as a result of which an unpleasant smell will be heard around the room.
- Contact breaks. The operation of the system is accompanied by small vibration, which can entail a break in poor contact on the control unit or further along the circuit. This rarely happens and then, only in Chinese products.
- Incorrect installation. With improper installation, the hood in the kitchen may stop working, which occurs for such reasons as a poor.quality connection of the wires in the terminal block or a strong airborne bend (corrugation).
- Problems with electrical wiring. Perhaps the outlet just stopped working or knocked out the circuit breaker on the shield, and you already panic, that the hood does not work in the kitchen and it needs to be urgently repaired.
All these reasons can entail failure and further repairs, so take into account all the points for the future so that such a situation no longer arises!
The hood does not work, does not turn on
When your hood turns on, that is, you hear the fan’s operation, but there is no lighting in it, you are faced with the most banal of possible problems. the light has burned out.
Replacing the light bulb with a similar one will solve the problem, if not, then the lighting switch has broken down. Probably one of the wires in it leaves.
Also, the reason for the lack of light in the kitchen exhaust may be a burned transformer in its body.
When you understand that the motor is buzzing, but does not work, in this case the problem lies in the ceramic fuse in the motor in the winding body in the motor. He probably burned out.
The second possible reason in this case is the capacitor malfunction. The problem with this detail of the hood is or visible to the naked eye (the capacitor is swollen) or is diagnosed with a special device.
If there is light in the hood, but it does not start to make noise, the problem is in the button block. Probably burned out general contact. Usually not one of the speeds of the kitchen hood is turned on.
The solution to the problem is either in reinstalling the block, or in the rolling of a burned.out contact connection.
Greatly rustling in the process of robots
Most cheap extracts of low.quality production have increased noise level due to poor.quality assembly of the device. Even a small backlash and a gap during the engine operation can create great vibration, buzzing and knocking. Over time, even in satisfying good models, fasteners depart and mechanisms are violated due to wear. But all the same, you can take some measures to try to reduce the hum from the work of the hood. It is necessary to check the reliability of the hood body to the wall or kitchen furniture, eliminate all possible gaps and compact empty places with foam or polyurethane. In order for the device to make the device smaller, you need to tighten all the connecting elements and put a thin substrate from an insolon or at least an ordinary flooring that is placed under the laminate in vibrating surfaces.
Well, here the first line you need to pay attention to the control unit, the device buttons and the control board. Inspect the buttons, there may be no contact or burned out (broken) the wire going to the motor and responsible for a certain speed. May also fail the trigger capacitor, you need to pay attention to it.

Basic breakdowns of kitchen hoods
There are several reasons for this phenomenon. This is the engine failure, and the breakdown of the buttons, and the cut of the cord, and the lack of power. It is recommended to start diagnostics from the very beginning. Check if the hood is included in the outlet, and if it is turned on, is there a voltage in it.
The easiest way to enable the backlight key. If the light bulbs glows, then the power is supplied, and the cord is in good. Then it is advisable to check the tester whether the voltage is supplied to the engine windings. If it comes, then the reason lies in the motor. If it does not work, then look for a breakdown in the supply chain or in the control panel. Panasonic irrigator often has such problems.
Sometimes, swimming fuses are installed inside the hood body. With voltage jumps, they can burn, blurring the power circuits. Check their integrity.
Often the motor breaks due to overheating (even at Bukhankaopechi). He needs high.quality cooling, which is provided by air pulled out of the kitchen. If the filters are clogged with fat deposits, then the motor does not receive the proper amount of air, overheats, and may refuse.
The hood motor may be refused due to a short interval circuit in windings. In this case, repair of hoods for the kitchen will not be possible. Of course, if you are not a specialist in engines. If your hood is over three years old, then the easiest way is not to repair the power unit, but to buy a motor for hoods.
Also, a swollen capacitor or burned ceramic fuse can serve as the reason for the refusal. As for the fuse, it is located inside the motor, so you can get to it only by completely dismantling the motor. Water coolers are also repaired.
Many are familiar with the picture when the hood seems to work, but its effectiveness is almost zero. If almost the entire extraneous smell was removed from the kitchen earlier, then a situation gradually arose in which almost all evaporation remains indoors. This indicates the loss of an exhaust of its power or clogging of the duct. Even a magnetic separator has such a breakdown.

The hood can be pulled worse only when filtering elements are contaminated. They gradually accumulate fat deposits on their surfaces, which clog ventilation holes. The motor does not have enough power to tighten the air. Solving the problem. flushing filters.
It may also be that with pure evaporation filters they are not removed. Usually the reason lurks in a clogged chimney or duct. It is recommended to remove and check the duct, and then check the traction in the chimney.
The hood is best works when the house has normal air ventilation. That is, if your plastic windows are hermetically closed, then the air from the outside does not come. Therefore, it stretches with great difficulty.
The buttons control the operation of the kitchen hood through the connecting board. Therefore, the reason for the refusal may be either a button or burning out a general contact located on the very first button. At the same time, none of the buttons work.
Духовка Siemens запах гари. Духовой шкаф Siemens не работает. Потухла индикация духовке Siemens.
In this case, it is recommended to replace the entire button unit or reap contact. You can buy spare parts for a kitchen hood in a service center or in specialized stores. Pay only attention to their compliance with a particular extract of the hood.
For example, if the CATA kitchen hood is repaired, then for this Spanish brand, control units used in domestic extracts are not suitable.
If all speeds work, and some one speed does not turn on, then the refusal of the button is likely. Either the track on control board burned out. Infrequently, but still there is a burning off the balancing capacitor on the engine. It can also affect speed management.
The backlighting is not a critical element, the failure of which can have a significant impact on the work of the hood. However, many housewives use this backlight for their convenience.
Most often, a light bulb is burned, which can be replaced on your own. The light is inexpensive, and you can buy it at any electrical engineering store. Less often such a refusal occurs due to problems with the switch. To the menu
