Nutone Range Vent Hood Parts

NuTone Range Vent Hood Parts

NuTone range vent hoods are workhorses in kitchen ventilation — they pull grease and odors out reliably for years. But when the fan motor slows, the light flickers, or the switch stops responding, you know exactly where to look. The most common failures on NuTone hoods are the blower motor, grease filters clogged past cleaning, and control switches that wear out from daily use.

We carry OEM NuTone parts for virtually every hood model — motors, blower wheels, filter frames, light sockets, damper assemblies, and control boards. Use your model number to find the exact replacement. Many NuTone hoods are installed in tight spaces over ranges, so getting the right OEM fit ensures the hood sits flush and seals properly.

• Fan motor won't run or runs slowly: NuTone blower motor assembly; check capacitor first (often the culprit)
• No light or flickering light: Light socket, LED board, or halogen bulb assembly depending on your model
• Speed switch unresponsive: Push-button or rocker switch control board; test for stuck contacts
• Poor airflow despite clean filter: Blower wheel clogged with grease buildup; damper stuck; motor bearings worn
• Grease filter permanently stained: Replacement aluminum mesh filter frame; measure width and depth before ordering

Find your NuTone hood model number (usually on a label inside the filter frame or on the underside of the unit). Enter it in our parts finder and browse motor assemblies, NuTone range vent hood parts, light kits, and filters. Same-day shipping on most orders.

NuTone Range Vent Hood Repair Questions

Why is my NuTone range hood not venting properly even though the motor runs?

When the motor spins but you get weak airflow, the culprit is usually a clogged damper, a grease-packed blower wheel, or a blocked exhaust duct outside. Start by removing and cleaning the blower wheel (accessible behind the filter frame on most NuTone hoods). Check that the damper — a flapper that closes when the hood is off — moves freely and isn't stuck open. If the motor is running at high speed but airflow is still weak, the external ductwork may be blocked or kinked. Clean the ducts before replacing parts.

How do I find my NuTone range hood model number?

The model number is almost always on a silver or white label inside the filter frame area. Open the filter frame or remove the grease filter, and look on the sides or back of the housing. You may also find it on the underside of the hood or on a label inside the cabinet if it's a built-in model. Write it down or take a photo — you'll need it to order the correct blower motor, control board, or light assembly. Models often vary between under-cabinet, wall-mounted, and island configurations, so the model number is your key to the right fit.

What's the difference between NuTone and Broan range vent hoods?

NuTone and Broan are owned by the same company — Broan-NuTone LLC. In fact, many parts are interchangeable between the two brands. NuTone is the residential brand name, while Broan is typically the contractor/commercial line. However, part numbers may differ even when the parts are physically identical. Always use your model number to confirm compatibility. If you have a Broan hood but find the exact NuTone part, contact Repair Clinic to verify cross-compatibility before ordering.

Why is my NuTone hood motor running but making grinding or squealing noise?

Grinding or squealing usually points to the blower wheel hitting the housing or the motor bearings wearing out. First, remove the wheel and check for grease buildup, lint, or damage. A bent wheel will scrape the housing. If the wheel is clean and undamaged, the motor bearings are likely shot — replace the motor assembly. Squealing can also come from a worn fan blade or a motor that's working too hard against ductwork blockage. Clean your external duct and make sure the damper isn't obstructing airflow before replacing the motor.

NuTone Range Vent Hood Model Number: Where to Look
