The Light Lens is an OEM part for Broan ventilation hoods, playing a role in diffusing light evenly across the cooking area. The light lens covers the light bulb, protecting it from grease and other cooking byproducts while ensuring the light is distributed effectively.

The causes of these issues often stem from the harsh kitchen environment, including exposure to high temperatures, grease, and accidental impacts. Over time, these factors can degrade the clarity and integrity of the light lens, affecting its performance and appearance.

Symptoms of a failing Light Lens include:

• Cracks or breaks in the lens, which can lead to uneven lighting or expose the bulb to damage
• Discoloration or cloudiness, reducing the effectiveness of the light distribution
• Missing or loose lens, which can significantly decrease visibility in the cooking area

• Preserves the appliance's professional appearance and resale documentation

• Replacement is straightforward; remove the old label before installing the new name plate

Symptoms of a bad Damper include:

• Reduced airflow or ventilation efficiency
• Unusual noises from the range hood
• Odors lingering in the kitchen
• Air drafts entering through the range hood
