AT38A6AF01 Genuine 60cm Aluminium Grease Filter for Glen Dimplex Group Rangehoods AAG6SE1, Replacement Rangehood Filter

AT38A6AF01 is a genuine aluminium grease filter for a 60cm rangehood from the Glen Dimplex group, which supplies brands such as Baumatic, Lofra, Linea Venini and Technika in Australia. Our stock record ties this filter to rangehood model AAG6SE1. It clips in under the canopy and catches grease from cooking vapour before it reaches the fan. Since 60cm filters differ in size and catch position, confirm AT38A6AF01 or your model before ordering.

When to replace a 60cm rangehood grease filter

Every time you cook, the rangehood pulls steam, smoke and fine grease droplets up through this filter. The aluminium mesh holds the grease back so it doesn't coat the fan, motor and ducting. Over the years filters get dented, warped by heat, or so caked that cleaning no longer clears them. A tired filter shows up as weak suction, cooking smells hanging around the kitchen, a noisier fan, or grease dripping back onto the cooktop. A bent frame may also stop sitting flush, which lets greasy air slip around the edges.

Swapping the grease filter

Switch the rangehood off and give it time to cool if you've been cooking. Most aluminium filters release with a sprung catch or pull tab on the front edge. Support the filter as you unlatch it so it can't drop onto the cooktop. Hook the back edge of the new one in first, then push the catch end up until it clicks home.

Questions about this part

Can I wash an aluminium grease filter?

Generally yes. Aluminium grease filters are made to be cleaned and reused. Hot soapy water works well, and many rangehood manuals also allow a dishwasher wash. Replace the filter once it is bent, holed or stays greasy after a good clean.
