FAQs

How often should I replace these filters?

For optimal performance, it is generally recommended to replace both the carbon and grease filters every 3 to 6 months, depending on your cooking habits and the intensity of cooking.

Do I need to replace both filters at the same time?

Yes, it is best practice to replace both the carbon and grease filters simultaneously to ensure the most effective odor and grease removal.

Can I wash the grease filter?

The thick foam grease filter is typically disposable and not designed to be washed. It should be replaced when saturated with grease.

Can I wash the carbon filter?

Carbon filters cannot be washed. Their odor-absorbing capacity becomes exhausted over time and they must be replaced.

What does 'cut to size' mean for these filters?

This means the filters come in a larger size and you will need to measure your cooker hood's filter compartment and cut the filter material to fit precisely before installation.

Are these filters suitable for all Rangemaster models?

This is a universal filter set designed to be cut to fit. While compatible with many Rangemaster and other vent extractors, it's always advisable to measure your existing filter dimensions to ensure a proper fit after cutting.

What is the difference between a grease filter and a carbon filter?

A grease filter (often foam or mesh) primarily captures airborne grease particles. A carbon filter uses activated charcoal to absorb odors and airborne chemical pollutants.

Troubleshooting

Filters not fitting correctly after cutting

Ensure you are measuring accurately against the original filter or the internal space. Trim carefully with sharp scissors or a utility knife. If significantly too small, you may need to purchase a different sized filter or consider that the cooker hood design might not be compatible with a cut-to-fit solution.

Cooker hood still smells after filter replacement

Check that the filters are installed correctly and that there are no gaps. Ensure you have replaced both the grease and carbon filters. For persistent odors, consider replacing the filters more frequently or ensure the cooker hood is set to the correct extraction speed.

Reduced airflow from cooker hood

This can indicate the filters are saturated and need replacement. Ensure the filters are not blocking the airflow path and were cut to allow sufficient space for ventilation. Check for any other obstructions within the cooker hood.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Turn off and unplug your cooker hood.
  2. Locate the existing filters within the cooker hood.
  3. Remove the old filters.
  4. Place the new grease filter on a flat surface and carefully cut it to the required dimensions using scissors or a utility knife, matching the size of the old filter or the internal frame.
  5. Cut the carbon filter similarly, if applicable. Ensure both filters are cut accurately to avoid gaps.
  6. Install the new, cut-to-size filters into their designated positions.
  7. Ensure filters are securely seated.
  8. Plug in and turn on the cooker hood to test.

Compatibility:

This filter set is designed as a universal replacement for Rangemaster cooker hoods and other vent extractors. While designed to be cut to size, it is compatible with most standard cooker hood designs. Always measure your existing filter space before purchasing to ensure a successful fit after cutting.

Care:

  • Grease filters are typically disposable and should be replaced when they become saturated with grease.
  • Carbon filters also have a limited lifespan and should be replaced regularly, as they become saturated with odors and lose their effectiveness.
  • Consult your cooker hood's manual for specific filter replacement recommendations. As a general guideline, replace every 3-6 months.
