Viking RDWHC3042 D3 Wall Hood

Most common issues on this model

  1. Weak airflow over the burners
  2. Grease-laden filters
  3. Lamps out
  4. Fan switch problems

The RDWHC3042 is a 30-inch chimney wall hood with ventilator from the Viking D3 series. Mounted above a 30-inch range, its chimney carries the duct to the ceiling, and its canopy captures steam and grease from the burners.

We begin with the filters, which we remove and inspect for grease and bends. The blower wheel and motor come next, followed by the damper and the duct connection. Lights and the fan switch are tested on every setting. If the problem is intermittent, we run the hood for longer to see when it appears. We finish by running the fan at each setting to confirm the canopy captures evenly.

You will get a written price first. Our work has a 30-day workmanship warranty.

RDWHC3042RDWHC3042 questions
What does the D3 name mean for repair?

It identifies the series. The hood is serviced like other chimney wall hoods: filters, blower, damper, lights and switch. Typical causes are an overheating motor, a loose wire or a worn switch, and each is tested in turn.

The hood turns off by itself. Why?

Overheating motors, loose wiring and failing switches can all do this. We test them in turn while the hood runs. The wiring in the chimney is checked for heat damage, because that is where connections tend to loosen over the years.

Can I run the fan with only one light on?

Yes, the lights are separate from the blower. We can replace the failed lamp or socket on its own. The lights are on their own circuit, so a failed lamp does not affect the fan, and it can be replaced separately.
