Description

This hood damper controls air flow in the exhaust vent, stopping outside air and fumes from entering when the range hood or microwave vent is off. It restores proper venting and reduces drafts. What it does:

• Opens to allow exhaust airflow when the hood or microwave vent runs
• Closes to block outside air and backdrafts when the fan is off
• Helps reduce unwanted odors and kitchen drafts caused by a stuck damper
• Can eliminate rattling or flapping noises if the original damper is loose or damaged

What's included:

• One hood damper

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical hazard
• Access may require removing the hood or microwave vent grille; keep hardware for reassembly
• Verify damper orientation and smooth operation before completing installation
