JennAir JVW0636LS Wide Wall Hood
Designed for wide ranges, the JVW0636LS is a 36-inch wall mount hood with 585 CFM. It is typically found above a 36-inch range against a wall, and it needs a duct run sized to match the airflow.
Because the canopy is wide, grease spreads across a larger area, and the filters bear the bulk of it. A hood in this class that suddenly hums but will not turn usually has a seized motor, a failed capacitor or a wheel jammed by buildup. Recent years of heavy use are often written all over the wheel, in the form of a dark film that we remove during the visit.
We test the motor and capacitor, clean the wheel and look over the filters and lamps. Price comes in writing before we begin, and the repair is backed by our 30-day workmanship warranty.
The motor could be seized, the capacitor could have failed, or buildup could be jamming the wheel. We free the wheel by hand first and then test the motor and capacitor.
A 36-inch canopy covers more cooking, so filters tend to load up quicker. Washing them regularly helps keep the airflow strong. That is why we measure airflow after cleaning, not only before.
Yes, the fan is separate from the lighting. We still inspect the socket during repair, because a burned socket can signal a wiring problem. Either way, you are not left with a risk from an old fitting.
