Get to know the role activated charcoal filters have in your ventilation appliance’s performance.
Activated charcoal is considered the most commonly used purifier by people due to its numerous benefits, such as water and air purification, treating health issues, and even for beauty purposes. Its effectiveness consists in the adherent of toxins, residues, and impurities to its micropores; in the kitchen, this mineral can capture bad odors and gas in the air.
Today, appliances and utensils that contain activated charcoal filters are becoming increasingly common, especially those related to extraction, including air conditioners, refrigerators, washers and range hoods. The latter can become one of your best allies in the kitchen, maintaining fresh air and an odor-free place.
When talking about ventilation, these filters have great qualities, for example, the easy installation, its power to eliminate odors, maximum functionality, and up to 95 effectiveness in retention of air contaminants. They do not require cleaning, as they have a set lifespan that will depend on how often the hood is used. Once this period is over, it should be replaced with a new one.
It's important to know an activated charcoal filter is not used in just any type of hood, as they are designed especially for recirculating ones, which are used when there is no external ventilation, extracting polluted air, to then return it detoxified to the environment.
