介绍

A range hood is designed to keep your kitchen air clean.
But what if it’s not removing smoke properly?

This is a common problem many users face—and in most cases, it can be fixed easily.

1. Clogged Filters

The most common reason for poor performance is dirty or clogged filters.

Symptoms:

• Weak suction
• Grease buildup
• Smoke staying in the kitchen

Solution:

• Clean filters every 1–2 months
• Replace charcoal filters regularly (for ductless models)

2. Low Suction Power

If your range hood has low CFM, it may not handle heavy cooking.

Signs:

• Works fine for light cooking
• Fails when frying or grilling

Solution:

• Upgrade to a higher CFM model
• Choose according to your cooking habits

3. Blocked or Poor Ducting

For ducted range hoods, airflow depends heavily on duct design.

Common issues:

• Long or bent ducts
• Blocked air outlets

Solution:

• Keep duct runs short and straight
• Check for blockages

4. Motor Problems

A weak or damaged motor reduces airflow significantly.

Symptoms:

• Unusual noise
• Reduced airflow

Solution:

• Check the motor condition
• Replace if necessary

5. Incorrect Installation Height

If the hood is installed too high, it cannot capture smoke effectively.

Recommended height:

• 65–75 cm above gas stove

6. Environmental Factors

In humid or enclosed kitchens:

• Smoke spreads faster
• Ventilation becomes harder

Solution:

• Improve kitchen airflow
• Use stronger suction models

Conclusion

If your range hood is not removing smoke properly, don’t rush to replace it.

Most issues are caused by:

• Dirty filters
• Poor installation
• Low suction power

With proper maintenance and the right product choice, you can restore optimal performance.
