Professional Cooker Hood Installations in London

Poor airflow.

Poor air flow usually points to the motor/fan being defective. Always inspect the external vent (louvred grill) for any obstruction that could reduce the airflow on the exit. Are the slats on the grill functioning smoothly? If not, the correct extraction could be the issue. They can freeze shut in winter until the extracted warm air thaws them out.

Broken or damaged cooker hood lights.

Broken or damaged cooker hood lights can be frustrating. Bulbs can overheat during cooking and fail prematurely. Occasionally, it can lead to charred wiring within the cooker hood—no need to keep them on longer than necessary.

An indicator of a malfunctioning cooker hood

Dust and grease accumulation in the mesh filter/s is the primary cause of unpleasant smells. Detaching and cleaning it with a stiff brush or placing it in the dishwasher is a quick and simple way to clean it. Set a cleaning schedule, as particles can accumulate into a sticky brown texture that is difficult to remove if left too long.

Excessive bearing noise.

If you hear noise coming from the drive motor, it could be either a motor or a bearing problem. As the motor bearings are subject to heat exposure, their lubricants dry out, resulting in a grinding or rattling sound. In many cases, replacing the motor altogether is more cost-effective than just replacing the bearings.

How does a cooker hood work?

These hoods efficiently filter out unwanted odours by drawing the air through a series of filters. The typical configuration includes a primary grease filter that captures grease particles and a charcoal filter that helps eliminate kitchen smoke, steam, and food odours. Together, these filters ensure a cleaner, fresher and odour-free environment.

Is it easy to install an cooker hood?

Replacing an old appliance with a like-for-like replacement may seem straightforward, as wiring, extractor vents, and flexible trunking may remain unchanged. However, cooker hood installation may become a challenge if the location site has been changed or the new extractor differs in size from the old one. We strongly recommend seeking expert assistance to avoid installation disappointment.
