CARBON FILTERS (CHARCOAL FILTERS - RECIRCULATING)
Range hoods that are installed in ductless (recirculating, ventless, etc) mode, should be equipped with charcoal filters, in addition to
the standard metal mesh filters. After the metal filters capture the grease, the charcoal filters capture odor particles, before the air is
recirculated back into the kitchen.
PLEASE NOTE: Charcoal filters SHOULD NOT be used when the hood is ducted to the outside.
Charcoal filters are not washable - they must be replaced once they’re completely saturated.
There are 3 types of charcoal filters: rectangular / “standard”, round 6” (modern type), and round 8” (older type).
ROUND CARBON FILTERS
Round carbon filters are latched on to the blower itself,
and must be replaced in pairs.
To remove the old filter: rotate the filter ~ 30 degrees
counter-clockwise, until it’s loosened. Pull the filter off the
blower. Repeat for the filter on the other side of the
blower.
To install new filter: align filter with latches, press into
position, rotate until you hear/feel the latch click into
place.
STANDARD CARBON FILTERS
1.) Remove the thumbscrew
that holds the filter in place.
2.) Pull the filter off of
the retaining tabs.
3.) Install new filter.
4.) Replace the thumbscrew.
