What West University does
to a range hood.

West University Place became a city on January 2, 1924, because Houston did not want to run power lines that far out from its center.

Ben Hooper, once governor of Tennessee, began selling its lots in 1917 and took the name from nearby Rice Institute.

Looser development rules adopted before 1992 let builders replace many of its mid-20th-century bungalows and cottages with new houses.

Detached houses make up about 95 percent of West University Place's housing, and piped gas heats roughly 69 of every 100 occupied homes.

Also known as West University Place.

Family houses

In a family kitchen the hood runs through breakfast, school-night dinners and weekend batch cooking, and the push-button switch at its front edge wears out long before the blower does.

Mixed housing

A stronger hood bought to replace an old one is often joined to the old, narrower duct, and a hood that roars but moves little air is traced to that duct rather than to the blower.

Galley and condo kitchens

In a small kitchen an under-cabinet range hood sits barely above head height and inches over the burners, so its switch, lights and filters take heat and grease that a larger room would spread out.

When a range hood
cannot wait in West University.

In West University as anywhere, these five mean nobody cooks beneath the range hood until a technician has looked at it: a grease fire in the pan or the hood, sparks from the blower or the lights, a hot electrical smell, a breaker that trips, or a hood coming away from the wall or the ceiling.
