# Dacor hood liner service

### The repair people postpone for a year

Owners with a hood built into custom joinery assume the carpentry has to come apart, and live with a kitchen that vents badly rather than find out. In nearly every case it does not: the liner inserts are about five and a half inches tall and designed to be serviced from below — filters down, blower and lamps reachable through the opening. The millwork stays exactly where it is, and a kitchen that has been struggling since last year is usually put right in a single visit.

What this involves

Designed to be serviced from below — the joinery stays where it is

About five and a half inches of appliance inside somebody else's hood

The postponed repair is usually the easy one

Work through the opening

Filters, then the blower and the lamps. We establish what can be reached before anything is unscrewed from the millwork.

Service the blower in place where possible

On liners this is normal rather than a compromise, and it is what keeps the visit to one.

Check the duct connection above

The join between the liner and the run is a common failure point and is invisible from the kitchen.

### Will the joinery have to be cut?

Practically never. We establish what can be reached through the opening before anything is unscrewed from the surround, and on these liners that is almost everything.

### The hood is behind a plaster canopy.

Same answer, and it is worth a look rather than an assumption. The connection between the liner and the duct above is a common failure and invisible from the kitchen.
