Description
Ensure clean, odor-free air in your kitchen with the Whirlpool W10272068 Range Hood Charcoal Filter Kit. This genuine OEM accessory includes a set of wo charcoal filters, designed for non-vented (recirculating) range hoods and over-the-range microwaves. The activated carbon layer removes cooking odors, smoke, and fine particulates from the air before it is circulated back into the room. Each filter measures approximately 7-5/8 inches in diameter by 7/8 inches thick. For maximum effectiveness, charcoal filters must be replaced regularly (typically every 6 months).
