Viking VWH36781 Deep Wall Hood

Most common issues on this model

  1. Poor capture at the front burners
  2. Filters dripping grease
  3. Light failure
  4. Controls not responding

A retired 36-inch wall hood, the VWH36781 is 27 inches deep, three inches more than the 24-inch hoods in the same family. The extra depth gives a 36-inch range a longer canopy to work with, and it is a favorite for kitchens that grill or sear often.

With that reach, grease collects on the front edge first. We pull the filters, wash the channels and check the frames, then examine the blower wheel for buildup and the motor for strain. The controls are tested at every speed, the lights are checked, and the damper is watched as the fan starts. We finish by testing the wall mounting, since a deeper hood puts more load on its fasteners.

A written price comes before we begin, and a 30-day workmanship warranty covers our repair.

VWH36781VWH36781 questions
Does a 27-inch depth change how the hood is serviced?

Only in reach. We cover the range, support the canopy while the filters and blower are open, and take extra care not to mark the underside.

Why do the filters drip onto the burners?

A full grease channel or a filter that is not seated flat will drip. We clean the channel and refit the filter so grease runs to the right place.

My controls respond only some of the time. What is likely?

Worn switch contacts or a loose connector are most common. We test the control with the fan running, then repair the connection or replace the switch.
