Find your part number
Most range hood filters have a part number stamped on the frame or printed on the edge. You can also find it in your hood's manual. If you cannot find one, measure the length, width and thickness and compare with the sizes in each listing.

Range hood filter FAQs
Are range hood filters universal?
Most range hood filters are not universal: they are made for specific hoods and over-the-range microwaves, so match the part number on your old filter or its exact length, width and thickness. A few universal charcoal filters are sold as equivalents to listed numbers, such as Supco RCP0303 for WG02F00240 and DE63-00367H. For a discontinued hood, email its model number and a photo for part-finding help.
Do over-the-range microwaves use range hood filters?
Yes, over-the-range microwaves that work as a range hood use their own aluminum grease filters, plus a charcoal odour filter when they recirculate air instead of venting outside. These filters are sized for each microwave, so match the part number on the old filter or in your manual. PureFilters carries Whirlpool, GE and Frigidaire microwave grease and charcoal filters; see microwave filters.
How do I clean a range hood grease filter?
To clean an aluminum range hood grease filter, remove it and soak it in warm water with a mild detergent for 15 to 20 minutes per side. Some grease filters are dishwasher safe; check your hood manual first and use a non-phosphate detergent. Discolouration from detergent or local water does not affect performance. Charcoal odour filters cannot be washed and must be replaced instead.
How often should I clean or replace range hood filters?
Clean aluminum mesh range hood grease filters about once a month, and more often if you fry foods or cook with a wok, according to Broan-NuTone. Replace charcoal range hood filters every 3 to 6 months, depending on how often and what you cook. Some charcoal filters have an indicator strip that changes from dotted to solid lines when it is time to replace them.
Do I need a charcoal filter for my range hood?
You need a charcoal filter only if your range hood or over-the-range microwave is installed as non-ducted, meaning it recirculates air through the filters and back into the kitchen instead of venting it outside. Ducted hoods vent outdoors and use grease filters alone. Some ducted hoods are non-duct capable and can be converted with a parts kit and charcoal filters.
What is the difference between a grease filter and a charcoal range hood filter?
A range hood grease filter, usually washable aluminum mesh, traps grease from cooking and is used in both ducted and non-ducted hoods. A charcoal (carbon) filter absorbs smoke and cooking odours from air the hood recirculates back into the kitchen, and cannot be washed. Some filters, such as the Broan NNFC, combine an aluminum grease filter with a charcoal odour insert.
