Fan not working

KitchenAid keeps a troubleshooting article for a vent hood fan that will not run (KitchenAid). The common sense order is the same for every brand: check the breaker, check whether the light works (if neither does, it is power), then the fan switch and the blower motor.

Filters

GE: metal grease filters last for years with careful handling. How often they need cleaning depends on the cooking, but for normal day-to-day use about every six months. Slide or unlock the filter, soak and swish it in hot water and detergent, brush lightly if needed, and let it dry completely before putting it back (GE Appliances).

Costs and lifespan

Angi lists vent hood repairs at $100 to $300 as an add-on to stove service (Angi). InterNACHI expects a range or oven hood to last about 14 years (InterNACHI).
