Wolf range hood model families
Wolf range hoods read by type and width — the first step in any Wolf range hood repair. The Pro line covers Pro Wall PW (PW362418, PW482418), Pro Wall Chimney PWC (PWC362418, PWC422418) and Pro Island PI (PI423418, PI543418). The V-Series covers wall VW (VW30B, VW36B, VW45B), island VI (VI42S, VI42B) and ceiling VC (VC48S, VC48W). Pro liners use PL (PL461912, PL462212) and downdrafts use DD (DD30/I/R, DD36/I/R, DD45/I/R). The digits encode width and depth.
What the technology means for service
A Wolf hood is a blower, filters, lighting and a control, and the type decides the install and the parts. A wall or chimney hood mounts above a cooktop, an island hood hangs from the ceiling, a ceiling and liner unit recess into a custom surround, and a downdraft rises from the counter behind the cooktop. The V-Series adds the FG/FC filter-clean reminders to the control. Identifying the type and width tells a technician whether a repair involves a wall-hood blower, an island mount, a liner insert or a downdraft lift mechanism.
Reading the model and where to find it
The rating plate is inside the hood housing or on the side. Record the full model string before booking so the correct motor, blower wheel, switch, light or filter is matched. Remember the ICB rule: a catalogue ICB form is dropped on the consumer SKU, and only confirmed V and Pro widths should be treated as current products.
Choosing within the range-hood line
The choice is dictated by the cooking surface below and the cabinetry. A Pro Wall or Chimney hood suits a cooktop against a wall; a Pro Island or V-Series island hood suits a cooktop in an island; a ceiling or liner unit suits a custom surround; and a downdraft suits a setup with no overhead hood. Whatever the type, the hood should be sized to clear the heat and steam your range, rangetop or cooktop produces. Browse comparable units on the range-hood models page.
