My range hood decided to retire last month - started making this awful grinding noise like a coffee grinder full of marbles. My entire condo smelled like burnt garlic for a week before I finally searched for help. Found a page about https://habitathomeservic...rvices/range-hood-repair/ while browsing local service forums. The tech showed up same-day (thank god), diagnosed a seized fan motor, and had it running quietly again in under an hour. Living in Vancouver's West End where kitchen ventilation is crucial, this was a lifesaver.
