FAQs

How often should I clean or replace these filters?

It is generally recommended to clean the filters every 1-3 months, depending on your cooking habits. If cleaning does not restore airflow or if the filters appear damaged, they should be replaced.

Can I wash these filters in a dishwasher?

While some aluminium filters can be washed in a dishwasher on a hot cycle, hand washing with warm, soapy water is the recommended method by the manufacturer to preserve the filter's integrity and ensure thorough grease removal.

What material are these filters made of?

These filters are made of aluminium metal mesh, designed for effective grease capture and durability.

Are these filters universal for all Whirlpool cooker hoods?

No, these filters are designed for specific Whirlpool oven cooker hoods and kitchen extractors that match the dimensions of 305mm x 267mm. Always check your appliance's manual for compatibility.

What is the benefit of using metal mesh filters?

Metal mesh filters are durable, washable, and effective at trapping grease particles from cooking fumes, helping to maintain air quality and protect the cooker hood's motor.

My cooker hood seems to have lost suction. What could be the cause?

A common cause is a clogged filter. If the filters haven't been cleaned or replaced recently, they can significantly reduce airflow and suction power. Ensure they are clean and properly installed.

Troubleshooting

Cooker hood is not extracting effectively.

Check if the filters are clogged with grease. Clean or replace the filters. Ensure the fan is switched on and set to an appropriate speed.

Filter does not fit correctly.

Verify that the filter dimensions (305mm x 267mm) match your cooker hood's requirements and that your specific Whirlpool model is listed as compatible. Ensure no other components are obstructing the filter placement.

Unusual noise from the cooker hood after filter installation.

Ensure the filter is securely and correctly seated in its housing. A loosely fitted filter can cause vibrations and noise. Double-check the filter installation against your appliance manual.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These filters are designed for direct replacement. Ensure your cooker hood is switched off and unplugged from the power supply before attempting to remove or install filters. Locate the existing filters within your cooker hood (usually behind a removable grille or panel), release them, and insert the new Spares2Go filters. Consult your cooker hood's manual for specific instructions on filter access and removal.

Compatibility: These filters are designed to fit Whirlpool oven cooker hoods and kitchen extractors. It is essential to verify that your specific Whirlpool model's dimensions match the filter size (305mm x 267mm) and that it is listed as compatible. Refer to your appliance's user manual or the manufacturer's specifications to confirm compatibility.

Care: For optimal performance and longevity, these aluminium mesh filters should be cleaned regularly. Hand washing with warm, soapy water is recommended. Soak the filter in hot, soapy water for at least an hour to loosen grease, then gently scrub with a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before reinserting into the cooker hood. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Frequency of cleaning depends on usage; it is generally recommended to clean them every 1-3 months.
