How to Tell if You Need to Replace Your Rangehood
You might not give much thought to your rangehood, unless, of course, it stops working. So, how do you know when it’s time to replace it?
Why a Rangehood is Important.
Rangehoods may not be the most exciting kitchen appliance. But if you’ve ever cooked something like stir-fry, bacon, or anything with a strong smell, you would know how important it is to have a rangehood that works well. After all, a good rangehood helps eliminate steam, smoke, and cooking smells from your kitchen.
Signs Your Rangehood needs Replacing.
Over time, there will be signs that your rangehood is on its way out; apart from it just failing to work altogether, here are the most likely signs.
Drop in Efficiency.
Signs that your rangehood is no longer as efficient as it used to be could include lingering cooking smells, more grease buildup, and a general lack of suction. Also, if you notice an increase in your energy bills, it might be because your old rangehood is working harder to do the job, but not getting the results it used to.
It may be tempting to want to just “get by” with an old, inefficient rangehood. But it won’t take long before you start wishing you had something that actually did the job it was supposed to do. A good rangehood should clear away steam and grease, leaving your kitchen fresh and comfortable.

Appearance or Glitches.
If your rangehood is making odd noises or the light has gone out and isn’t easily replaceable, it may be nearing the end of its life. Likewise, if it doesn’t look as good as it used to, such as an originally white rangehood that now looks opaque or a stainless-steel unit that doesn’t return to its original sheen no matter how much you clean it, it may be time to upgrade.
Choosing a New Rangehood.
If your rangehood is on the older side or not working well, it’s definitely worth considering an upgrade. The right rangehood will make your kitchen feel fresher, keep the air cleaner, and prevent grease buildup on your cabinets and walls. When you’re shopping for a new rangehood, make sure it has the right suction power for your cooking style. If you love to cook at high temperatures or make dishes with lots of smoke or steam, go for a more powerful unit and can be ducted well.
Whether you need something stylish, a high-performance model, or the quietest you can find, Powerstate Services can help you pick the best rangehood, ensuring that your kitchen stays clean and fresh. We can then supply and install, or just install a unit you have purchased elsewhere, so why not contact us today or go straight to our booking form to arrange an installation.
So, if you’re in the market for a new rangehood, don’t hesitate to ask for advice from the Powerstate Services experts, we’re always happy to help!
