Viking VICV66981 66-Inch Island Ventilator

Most common issues on this model

  1. Little draw along a very wide island hood
  2. Filters saturated with grease
  3. Dead lights
  4. Controls unreliable

The VICV66981 is the 66-inch Professional Series built-in custom ventilator for island hoods, and it is retired. It is the largest of the three VICV sizes, designed for a long island with a large range or several cooking elements side by side.

At this width the filters are the first thing to examine, since each one may carry a different load of grease. We clean them all and look for bent frames, then check the blower wheel for balance and the motor for strain. The lights and the control are tested one at a time, and we trace the duct from the insert to the outside. We tell you plainly if a retired part may be difficult to find.

A written price comes first, and the repair has a 30-day workmanship warranty.

VICV66981VICV66981 questions
What makes the 66-inch insert hard to repair?

Mostly its size and the custom shell around it. We plan extra support and protect surfaces, but the diagnostic steps remain the same. A very long insert needs extra support, covers and care when it is opened, which takes time.

Why do I smell grease when the fan is on?

Warm grease on the filters or in the blower housing gives off an odor. Cleaning both removes the source. We clean the blower housing as well, since grease there keeps producing the smell.

Are lights on an island insert replaceable?

Yes, usually from below. If a socket is darkened or loose, we repair it so the new bulb lasts. We test the lamp and switch first, so you pay only for the part that failed.
