Cleaning Your Kitchen Chimney: Baffle Filters, Oil Collectors and Auto-Clean

Suction ratings assume clean filters. Let grease build for a season and a 1200 m³/hr hood behaves like a 600 — the smoke simply rolls past it.

Monthly: baffle filters

Slide the stainless baffles out and soak them in hot water with a spoon of dishwashing liquid and washing soda. Fifteen minutes later the grease wipes away. Dry and refit.

Weekly: the oil collector

Empty the collector cup before it overflows — old oil is both a smell and a fire risk.

Or let the hood do it

Auto-clean models like the Glam Gas Wave Series Smart Kitchen Range Hood (Chimney) heat and flush internal grease to the collector at one press, cutting manual cleaning to a fraction. The Choice Appliances Premium Curved Glass Kitchen Range Hood (Chimney) keeps it simple with easy lift-out baffles.

Compare both in Kitchen Hoods.
