Why your CaptiveAire commercial kitchen hood is won't start
The first things owners spot on a won't start CaptiveAire commercial kitchen hood: unit completely dead, no lights, no response. Door switch, control board, or power issue. The usual culprit is tripped thermal protector.

- A failed start capacitor
- Failed main control board
- Tripped thermal protector
Known CaptiveAire commercial kitchen hood weak points
- grease loading of baffle filters and exhaust plenum requiring frequent cleaning
- upblast exhaust fan belt slippage, bearing wear and motor burnout
- insufficient make-up air causing negative pressure, backdrafting and blown pilots
- electrical control panel and demand-control fan-speed faults
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Do this first — it takes two minutes: 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. When that isn't the fix, a control board fault has to be tested with a meter against the service manual — swapping the board on a guess is an expensive way to be wrong.
