Dynasty Range vent hood doesn't vent to the outside

If your Dynasty range vent hood doesn't vent to the outside, start with the blower motor, the most likely cause when the fan blade does not spin. Check whether the motor is receiving power, then test the vent switch for continuity if power is missing. If the motor has power but will not turn, replace the blower motor. Next, inspect the blower wheel and housing for grease, debris, or rubbing that prevents the wheel from spinning freely. A damaged or obstructed blower wheel and housing, or the blower wheel itself, can greatly reduce airflow. Check the fan blade as well. If it is loose on the motor shaft, tighten it or replace it if it will not stay secure. A clogged grease filter is also a common reason a Dynasty range vent hood is not venting correctly. Clean the filter with degreaser and warm, soapy water, or replace it if it remains dirty or is damaged. Enter your model number to find the exact blower motor, blower wheel, fan blade, or grease filter for your specific Dynasty range vent hood.

01 - Dynasty Range Vent Hood Blower Motor

To determine if the blower motor is defective, turn on the vent hood and check to see if the fan blade is spinning. If the fan blade does not spin, ensure that power is getting to the motor. If power is not getting to the motor, test the switch for continuity. If the motor is receiving power, but the motor won’t turn, replace the blower motor.

02 - Dynasty Range Vent Hood Blower Wheel and Housing

One possibility is that something is caught in the blower wheel. It is also possible that the blower wheel is rubbing against the blower housing. To determine if the blower wheel is at fault, try spinning the blower fan by hand. If the blower wheel does not spin freely, check for the blower wheel for obstructions. In addition, ensure that the blower wheel is not rubbing against the blower housing. If the blower wheel is clear of obstructions, but it still doesn’t spin freely, replace the blower wheel and housing.

Remove it and soak it in a degreasing solution until the grease is dissolved. Next, wash it with warm, soapy water to remove any traces of the degreaser. If the filter does not come clean or is damaged, replace it.
