Description

This hood damper mounts at the exhaust outlet to let cooking air exit while blocking backdrafts when the fan is off. Replacing a worn damper restores proper airflow and helps eliminate rattling or sticking during vent operation.

• Controls one-way airflow from the hood into the duct; seals when the fan is off
• Helps block outside air and moisture from entering through the vent
• Wear or damage can cause poor venting, rattling noises, or a stuck exterior flap
• Restores vent performance after the original damper is bent, warped, or missing

What's included: 1 hood damper Installation notes:

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Access the exhaust outlet and remove the old damper; note airflow orientation
• Install so the flap swings freely and seats closed; avoid overtightening fasteners
• Run the fan to verify smooth damper movement and proper airflow
