Why your commercial kitchen hood is won't start
When a commercial kitchen hood is won't start, here's what you'll usually notice: unit completely dead, no lights, no response. Door switch, control board, or power issue. Nine times out of ten it comes down to tripped thermal protector.
Most likely causes
- Faulty door switch or interlock
- A failed start capacitor
- A blown line fuse
- Tripped thermal protector
- Failed main control board
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Worth checking yourself first: check the outlet and breaker, and confirm the door is fully closed and latched — many units won't start at all with a door safety switch tripped. If none of that changes anything, if power and the door are both fine, the fault is in the control board or start circuit, and testing that safely means working inside a live electrical panel.
