The range hood has a grill that channels the hot, moist air upward into a filter or baffle. This filter prevents grease or other small particles from being sucked back down into the appliance on which you're cooking. \r\rBecause range hoods are used so regularly, they need to be strong enough to last for a long time. The materials that make up the range hood are just as important as the design of the appliance itself.\r\rIf you're looking for an effective means of keeping grease out of your home, then consider investing in a stainless steel or aluminium range hood. You can also look at models with carbon filters which will help keep even more particles out of your air supply, but these aren't nearly as common.\r\rAnother option is a double-layer filter system which uses activated charcoal between two layers of metal mesh screening to filter oil and heat vapours from cooking fumes rather than just absorbing them.\r\rChoose a range hood that is quiet during operation. \r\rRange hoods produce noise from the fan and motor when they are in use but you may want to choose one with an insulated exterior which will help keep the noise down. It's also a good idea to look for control features that will allow you to adjust the venting speed of the fan and light intensity so you can reduce noise further if necessary.\r","bulletData":null,"numberedListData":null,"columnData":null,"imageCaption_1":null,"imageCaption_2":null,"imageURL_1":null,"imageURL_2":null,"numberOfImages":null,"numberOfColumns":null},{"__typename":"SectionData","type":"Text","headingTag":"h2","heading":"Do I need a gasfitter to install a gas oven?","text":"A gasfitter may be required depending on the type of stove you have.

Next, allow the surface to dry completely being sure to remove any residue of chemical cleaner you may have used.\r\rUse 150-220 grit sandpaper or an electric sander to lightly sand the furniture in a circular motion. This process requires light sanding as the thin piece of laminate can be torn off if you were to over sand or be too aggressive in the process.

While LED lights have a simple, consistent process and produce high quality light – halogen lights burn hot tungsten filaments to get their job done. \r\rThese filaments need constant cooling and as you can imagine this leads to high energy consumption. In fact, lighting your home with just 10 halogen downlights will use enough electricity to power everything else in the house for one day. \r\rThus, equivalent LED bulbs offer efficient lighting than existing halogen downlights, hence the preference for energy efficient LED downlights or CFL lights.
