The filter, located in the coal kitchen hood, is considered the most effective, according to experts. The main task of such a filter is to clean the polluted air, while the external filtration system fights against grease.

The work of modern coal extract is carried out with the help of some features. Performing it, this hood absorbs polluted air, which is treated on the external and internal filter. The coal extract not only removes unpleasant soot and fumes, but also cleans the air from various odors.

The external filter does not need to be replaced, with the help of detergent you can easily get rid of dirt. But the fine filter (coal) with time must be changed, such filters can not be cleaned. The service life of this device cannot be determined. It all depends on the frequency of use of the exhaust system and the level of contamination.

In order not to miss the time of the change or not to replace the still usable filter, modern exhaust hoods are equipped with a device that tells about the state of the filter.

It is possible to carry out replacement independently, for this purpose the help of professionals will not be required. Just look at the instructions and make sure that the process is extremely simple and takes only a few minutes.

Filter replacement

Depending on the model of the hood is determined by the service life of the filter. But, in general, with intensive work of the hood, the filter must be replaced after 120 hours of continuous use.

The replacement of the filtering material begins with the cleaning of the grease filter. To do this, just remove it, wash intensively with a cleaning solution and send to dry. When cleaning, it is better not to use soda solutions, such a substance can leave stains on the coating.

The filter definitely needs to be replaced after the period of its use. Exhausted material loses its ability to pass air, as a result of which its movement slows down.Exhaust systems vary in shape, size and appearance of the carbon filter itself. However, the principle of replacement is common to all catchers.

So, filter replacement should be carried out, adhering to the following recommendations:

  1. Initially, to ensure proper safety, it is necessary to disconnect the device from the electrical network.
  2. The next step is to remove the grease filter and clean it.
  3. The carbon filter is located in a special cassette inside the exhaust system. You must pull the cassette in its direction and remove the filter from it.
  4. In place of the used filter, you must insert a new one, with proper manipulation, a click should be heard.
  5. Making sure that the grease filter is dry, you must put it in place.
  6. After the replacement of the carbon filter, the device must be plugged in to make sure that it works. When installed correctly, the exhaust system will work without extraneous noise. If, within a few seconds of work, extraneous sounds are heard, it is necessary to turn off the device, and check the quality of the filter installation.
