Sometimes the most frustrating problems happen at the worst time.
This customer in Beaverton was preparing to show their home to buyers. Everything was spotless, until the vent hood stopped working.
Turns out, while cleaning the retractable Dacor hood, the filter cover fell inside the unit. It got lodged deep behind the fan. No one could say how it happened, but airflow was gone.


A simple jam – with a complicated fix
The part itself wasn’t broken. Nothing was burnt.
But to get to it, we had to:
- Remove the cooktop
- Disassemble the entire motor-fan assembly
- Extract the filter cover without causing cosmetic damage
- Re-insulate the ductwork
- Reassemble and install everything back – like nothing happened


No parts replaced. No bandaid solutions.
Just clean, careful work to get the hood fully functional before the home showing.
Not all repairs are about broken parts
Some repairs are about access.
Some – about timing.
And some – about making it look like nothing ever went wrong.
That’s what we did here.
