A rangehood is a durable kitchen appliance that is essential for every modern kitchen. While it is designed to serve you for years, with excessive grease build-up and little or no maintenance, it can wear out. Of course, a damaged range hood won't stop working all of a sudden. It will show subtle warning signs that will indicate that it's time to get a new range hood.

 

Let's look at the top signs you need to get a new range hood for your kitchen.

 

Excessive Smoke Accumulation in Your Kitchen

The entire purpose of having a range hood in your kitchen is to get rid of smoke and fume generated when cooking food. If your range hood cannot perform this task, it is a sign that you need to get a new range hood.

 

While your range hood may get back to normal functioning after professional cleaning and maintenance, if smoke accumulation in your kitchen is a persistent concern, it's time to move on.

 

You Notice Unusual Sounds

The fan of your range hood makes a certain sound when it operates. However, loud and unusual noises from your range hood may be a sign you need to get a new range hood.

 

When your range hood's internal components loosen up or jam in a fan assembly, they start producing unusual repetitive humming and chopping sound. Usually, the problem is a simple one and may require professional repair. But if the problem is frequent and persists after repair and maintenance, it is a good idea to get a new range hood.

 

Controls Failure

Most range hoods have controls with push buttons; however, many modern day range hoods now feature touch controls. Over time, the built-in circuit board that directs the controls of your range hood may damage and malfunction.

 

In that case, a professional repair and replacement service provider will recommend whether the problem can be rectified. In case there is permanent damage to your circuit board, you may need to replace that component only. But in case of more extensive damage, controls failure can be a sign that you need to get a new range hood.

 

Your Rangehood Does not Meet Your Needs

Over the years, the needs of your kitchen may change. You may have recently undergone remodeling, and your old range hood does not match your new kitchen style and look. Perhaps there is more extensive cooking in your kitchen now, and you need a more powerful hood. Whatever the reason may be, if your range hood does not meet your needs, it is a clear sign that you need to get a new range hood.
