FAQs

What type of rangehood should I choose for my kitchen?

Your choice of rangehood depends on your kitchen layout and personal preferences. Common types include canopy rangehoods, under-mount rangehoods, and slide-out rangehoods. Consider the available space, installation requirements, and the extraction capacity needed for your cooking habits.

How do rangehoods work?

Rangehoods extract airborne grease, odours, and smoke produced during cooking. They do this by drawing in the air through filters that trap grease particles and then expelling the filtered air outside or recirculating it back into the kitchen after passing it through additional filters to remove odours. The extracted air is typically vented through ducting to the outside of the house.

What are the benefits of a range hood?

Rangehoods offer several benefits, including:

  • Efficient removal of cooking odours, smoke, and airborne grease, ensuring a fresh and clean kitchen environment.
  • Improved air quality by reducing the buildup of cooking-related pollutants.
  • Prevention of grease buildup on kitchen surfaces, cabinets, and walls.
  • Enhanced safety by removing smoke and steam, minimizing fire hazard risk and improving cooking visibility.

How do I clean and maintain a rangehood?

To clean and maintain a rangehood, follow these steps:

  1. Regularly clean or replace the rangehood filters according to the manufacturer's instructions to ensure optimal performance.
  2. Wipe the exterior surfaces with a damp cloth or sponge using a mild detergent or kitchen cleaner.
  3. Clean the grease trap and other removable parts using warm soapy water or a non-abrasive cleaner.
  4. Ensure that the ducting is clear of any obstructions or buildup, and inspect it periodically for any signs of damage.

Can I install a rangehood myself?

It is recommended to have a licensed professional install a rangehood to ensure proper installation, compliance with local building codes, and safe operation. Professional installation will also help to correctly vent the rangehood to the outside of the house, ensuring effective extraction of airborne contaminants.

 

By considering these factors and exploring reputable brands, you can select a range that suits your kitchen size, style, and extraction needs, making your cooking experience more enjoyable and maintaining a clean and fresh kitchen environment.
