FAQs

Is this an original CDA or GDA filter?

No, this is a compatible replacement/spare part manufactured by Spares2go. The names of original manufacturers are used for reference purposes only.

How do I know if this filter will fit my cooker hood?

You should measure your current filter. This replacement is approximately 320 x 260mm with a height of 32mm. Please compare these dimensions and check the gallery image for locating tabs and specific measurements against your existing filter.

How often should I clean the metal mesh filter?

It is recommended to clean the filter regularly, typically every 2-4 weeks, depending on your cooking frequency. This ensures optimal performance and prevents grease buildup.

Can I put this filter in a dishwasher?

While some dishwashers have filter cleaning cycles, hand washing in warm, soapy water is generally recommended for metal mesh filters to preserve their structure and effectiveness over time.

When should I replace the metal mesh filter?

It's advisable to replace the filter every 6 to 12 months, or sooner if it appears damaged, heavily clogged, or is no longer effectively filtering grease, even after cleaning.

What do the blue strips on the filter mean?

The blue strips are a protective film applied to prevent the filter from getting scratched during transit. They should be removed before installing the filter into your cooker hood.

Troubleshooting

Filter does not fit correctly

Double-check the measurements of your original filter against the product description and gallery image. Ensure you are comparing the correct dimensions (height, width, and locating tabs). If measurements are close but not exact, the filter may not be compatible.

Cooker hood seems to have reduced airflow

Ensure the filter is clean and not clogged with grease. If the filter is dirty, clean it according to the care instructions. If the filter is clean and the issue persists, check for other obstructions in the cooker hood or ducting.

Filter arrived with scratches or damage

Check for and remove the blue protective strips. If the filter itself is damaged, contact the seller for a replacement, referencing the protective packaging that is intended to prevent transit damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility Check:

Before purchasing, it is crucial to measure your existing filter and compare it to the provided dimensions (approx. 320mm x 260mm, 32mm height) and consult the gallery image for specific measurement points and locating tabs. Ensure your CDA or GDA cooker hood or extractor vent fan requires a filter of these approximate dimensions.

Setup:

  1. Turn off the power to your cooker hood at the mains.
  2. Locate the existing filter (usually behind a metal grille or panel).
  3. Carefully remove the old filter. Note its orientation.
  4. Remove any protective blue strips from the new Spares2go filter.
  5. Insert the new metal mesh filter into the designated slot, ensuring it is correctly oriented.
  6. Replace any grilles or panels.
  7. Restore power to the cooker hood.

Care:

Metal mesh filters should be cleaned regularly to maintain optimal performance.

  • Cleaning: Remove the filter from the cooker hood. Wash it by hand in warm, soapy water, using a soft brush to remove stubborn grease. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to dry completely before reinstallation. Some dishwashers may have a filter cleaning cycle, but hand washing is often recommended for longevity.
  • Replacement: For best results and continued efficiency, it is recommended to replace the filter every 6-12 months, depending on cooking habits and frequency of use.
