Topics:

• Why did the hood turn on and off on its own?
• Why did the blower speed increase then decrease on its own?
• PW, PWC, PL, PI, IH, CTWH, and CTEWH heat safety sensor.
• At what temperature does the ventilation hood heat safety sensor turn on or turn off?
• What temperature activates or deactivates the heat safety sensor feature?
• Why is the blower speed LED flashing?

Answer:

All Pro Series Ventilation Hoods are equipped with a heat safety sensor feature, which automatically turns the ventilation hood on, or adjusts the blower speed to the next highest setting when excessive heat is sensed.

• The heat safety sensor feature activates when the exhaust temperature reaches 200°F (93°C) and deactivates when the exhaust temperature decreases to 185°F (85°C).
• If the ventilation hood is turned off and the heat safety sensor senses 200°F exhaust, the blower automatically turns on.
  • Once the exhaust temperature decreases to 185°F, the blower turns off.
• If the ventilation hood is turned on to low speed and the heat safety sensor senses 200°F exhaust, the blower increases to high speed.
  • Once the exhaust temperature decreases to 185°F, the blower decreases back to low speed.
