Kitchen ventilation problems we fix in Tinley Park
Range hood trouble shows up in different ways: a fan that won't start, a hood that roars but barely pulls, filters that drip, or no hood at all. Our Tinley Park crews handle all three kinds of fix and start by figuring out which one your kitchen needs.
No hood over the range
Kitchens without ventilation collect grease on cabinets and ceilings. A new ducted hood sized for the range is the fix.
Range Hood Installation →New range, old hood
A wider or more powerful range often outgrows the old hood. We match the new hood to the cooktop width and the burners.
Range Hood Installation →Kitchen stays smoky when you cook
A hood that lets smoke roll out from under it is often undersized for the cooktop or recirculating instead of ducted. Replacement solves it.
Range Hood Installation →Fan stopped working
Most fans that stop are repairable with a new switch, board or motor.
Range Hood Repair →Grease buildup above the stove
A heavily coated hood can catch fire from a pan flare. We degrease it down to the metal.
Residential Kitchen Hood Cleaning →Cold draft from the hood
Grease or a bent flap keeps the damper from sealing. We free it or install a new one.
Range Hood Repair →Hood lights out
Dead hood lights are usually a bulb, socket or switch. We replace the right part for your hood.
Range Hood Repair →What we hook up and check
- Diagnosis on siteWe look at the hood, the fan, the filters and where the duct goes before recommending anything.
- Hood sizing and selectionWe help choose a hood that fits the range and the route outside.

Kitchen Ventilation & Range Hoods questions from Tinley Park homeowners
Do I need makeup air for a big hood in Tinley Park?
Possibly. High-CFM hoods can trigger a makeup-air requirement under local code. We check with the village first.
What does range hood work cost?
Cleaning, repair and installation are priced very differently. You get it in writing after we see the hood.
How often should a range hood be cleaned?
Wash the filters regularly and have the hood deep-cleaned when grease builds up or the fan slows.
How high should a range hood be above the stove?
Per the installation guide; gas ranges sometimes call for a higher mount.
Ducted or ductless: which is better?
Ducted removes the air; ductless cleans and returns it. We recommend ducted wherever possible.

Changing electric service must be done by a licensed electrical contractor. New circuits and wiring are done by licensed electricians.
