The EI30WC55GS is an earlier model number for the same 30-inch chimney hood later sold as the RH30WC55GS, sharing its 600 CFM internal blower and an electronic control with a blue display, timer and an auto-start heat sensor. A heat sensor that fails to start the fan automatically is checked at the sensor itself before the control board is suspected, since the two are separate parts on this control system.
Because this is the older model number, a written-down number that does not match anything on a parts site is worth double-checking against the RH30WC55GS listing, since replacement parts and documentation are often filed under the newer number even for hoods that still carry the original EI30WC55GS badge.
