Description
The Insulation is an OEM part for Whirlpool range vent hoods. This insulation prevents excess heat from escaping. It helps create an efficient cooking environment while keeping external vent hood surfaces cool to the touch.
Causes of damaged or degraded insulation include long-term heat exposure, accidental tears or punctures incurred during the vent hood installation or cleaning process, or damage from humidity or water exposure over time.
Symptoms of ineffective insulation include:
- Increased interior vent hood temperatures
- Excessive exterior vent hood surface heat during cooking
- Reduced vent hood performance in removing smoke, grease, odors
- Potential burn risks due to hot external hood surfaces
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
