These filters work with your cooker hood to remove odours, airborne grease, and particles from your kitchen's air. Replacing saturated or damaged filters regularly ensures your cooker hood operates efficiently. The carbon filter is crucial for odour removal when your cooker hood recirculates air, especially if it lacks external venting. Filters should be replaced every 3 to 12 months, depending on cooking frequency, and feature saturation indicators for convenient replacement.
Fitting Instructions:
Wear disposable gloves during this process, as changing a cooker hood filter can be messy!
1. Remove the grid on your cooker hood.
2. With the black stripes facing in, cut your new grease filter to size.
3. Cut your charcoal filter to size and place it on the inside of the grease filter.
4. Put the cooker hood grid back into place.
Cooker Hood Maintenance Tips:
1. Change your filters as soon as they have reached saturation. They will no longer be useful at this point.
2. Duct the fumes to the outside air in the summer.
3. Use the cooker hood in recirculating mode in the winter.
