Kitchenaid Range Hood Parts

The Capacitor is an OEM part for Whirlpool range hoods. This capacitor functions to optimize blower motor performance. It works in tandem with the motor to efficiently expel cooking vapors and gases from the kitchen.

Causes relate to standard wear over extended use of the vent hood. Electrical issues can cause premature capacitor failure.  

Symptoms of a bad capacitor include:

• Reduced air circulation and weaker ventilation
• Abnormal humming or grinding noises from the motor
• Failure of the blower to turn on as desired

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

This duct cover extension kit raises a range hood's chimney to fit taller ceilings and gives a finished look where the standard chimney is too short. It provides an easy way to extend the visible duct cover for a cleaner installation. What it does:

• Extends the hood chimney/duct cover to reach higher ceilings
• Covers exposed ductwork for a finished appearance
• Helps align the duct cover with cabinetry and ceiling lines
• Useful when replacing or modifying hood installation height

• Turn off power to the hood before beginning any work
• Follow the manufacturer's instructions and use proper fasteners for your wall/ceiling type
• Do not alter structural supports or ventilation openings; consult local codes

This motor run capacitor helps the appliance motor start and run more smoothly, restoring proper motor performance and reducing hum or startup problems. It's a direct-replacement electrical component used in compatible Whirlpool appliances. What it does:

• Provides the phase-shifted current the motor needs to start and maintain normal operation
• Helps reduce motor humming, slow starts, or intermittent motor stalls
• Restores proper motor torque and efficiency when the original capacitor has failed
• Works as the electrical timing/storing component for motor cycles

• One motor run capacitor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting replacement to avoid electrical shock
• Discharge the capacitor before touching terminals; use insulated tools and follow safe procedures
• Match terminal configuration and mounting to the original part

This replacement chimney is the exterior cover that hides the hood's ductwork and mounting hardware, restoring the finished look of your kitchen range hood and protecting internal components from grease and dust. Fits the upper section of select chimney-style hoods. What it does:

• Covers and protects ductwork and mounting brackets for a clean, finished appearance
• Helps prevent grease and dust from settling on internal hood components
• Replaces damaged, dented, or missing chimney pieces that affect appearance or fit
• Restores proper alignment of the hood's upper housing for secure installation

• One chimney upper cover

• High-level replacement — basic hand tools typically required; lift and support the chimney during installation
• Consider a second person for safe handling and alignment of the cover
• Turn off power to the hood before removing or working near electrical components
