KitchenAid KHTU705S Hood Service
The KHTU705S is a 30-inch under-cabinet range hood, also sold as the KHTU705SSS. It mounts below a cabinet over a 30-inch range or cooktop.
We start with what you can hear and see. A squeal or scrape points to the blower, so we spin the wheel by hand and check the bearing. Weak airflow usually means packed filters or a greasy wheel. A speed that does not respond is the switch. A dead light is the bulb or socket. Each is a short test, so the cause is found quickly, and most of the work can be done from below without taking the hood down. If a part has to be ordered, we say which one and why before you approve it.
You receive a written price before we begin, and the repair carries a 30-day workmanship warranty.
We check the motor bearing and the wheel. A squeal usually means the bearing has dried out. We replace the blower motor if the shaft has play.
Grease on the filters or the motor can smell hot. We clean the filters and wheel and check that the motor is not overheating from a restriction.
Yes. A worn speed switch or a failed lower-speed winding causes this. We test the switch first, since it is the simpler and cheaper part.
