Description

This hood blower motor assembly powers the exhaust fan in compatible range hoods, restoring proper ventilation and airflow. Designed to replace a worn or failed blower motor to help reduce smoke, odors, and excess heat while cooking. What it does:

• Spins the hood fan to move air through the vent system for kitchen ventilation
• Restores airflow when an old motor hums, won't start, or runs intermittently
• Helps reduce lingering smoke, steam, and cooking odors by re-establishing exhaust
• Works as the mechanical drive for the hood's blower wheel (fan)

What's included: One hood blower motor assembly. Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance at the breaker before servicing to avoid electrical shock
• Typical replacement requires removing the hood housing and blower wheel to access the motor
• Handle the blower wheel and motor housing carefully to avoid bending fins or damaging electrical connectors
