Cooker hood not extracting — questions
How often should filters be changed?
Grease filters monthly in a dishwasher; charcoal filters every three to six months on recirculating hoods.
My hood is noisy — can that be fixed?
Often yes — a worn motor bearing or loose fan blade is usually the cause.
Do you fit new hoods?
We repair existing hoods. If replacement makes more sense, we will say so before you spend money.
