The Elica CFC0141497 cooker hood filter is a disposable charcoal filter designed to improve air quality in kitchens by absorbing odors and grease. Sized at 155 mm x 155 mm x 50 mm, it is compatible with Elica Missy and Box models intended for recirculation mode. The filter uses activated charcoal media to capture and neutralize cooking smells, helping to maintain a fresher kitchen environment when external ducting is not available.
Advantages
This charcoal filter provides targeted odor adsorption and contributes to grease retention in a recirculating cooker hood system. Its compact dimensions match the mounting area in compatible Elica hoods, ensuring a secure fit and reliable performance. As a disposable cartridge, it simplifies maintenance by allowing straightforward replacement without cleaning or regeneration.
Suitable for
- Recirculating cooker hoods in domestic kitchens
- Elica Missy and Box models with compatible filter housing
- Homes without external ducting where odor control is required
- Users seeking a low-maintenance filter solution
When it may not be suitable
This charcoal filter is not intended for use in ducted (externally vented) installations where grease and moisture are exhausted outdoors; in such systems, a washable grease filter or different filtration setup may be more appropriate. It is a disposable item and not designed for washing or reactivation, so environments requiring permanent or industrial-grade filtration should consider alternative products.
Key specifications
- Filter type: disposable activated charcoal (carbon) filter
- Material: high-quality activated charcoal media
- Dimensions: 155 mm x 155 mm x 50 mm
- Intended use: recirculation/air purification in cooker hoods
How to use
Install the charcoal filter in the designated filter slot of a compatible Elica Missy or Box cooker hood following the hood manufacturer’s instructions. When the hood operates in recirculation mode, the filter should remain in place to adsorb odors from the airflow. Because the filter is disposable, remove the spent unit and replace it with a new one when airflow or odor adsorption declines.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify compatibility with your hood model (suitable for Elica Missy and Box models with matching filter dimensions)
- Confirm available space and filter housing dimensions in your hood to ensure correct fit
- Plan for periodic replacement—recommended every 3–4 months with typical domestic use
Usage recommendations
For best results, use the filter in recirculation mode and replace it every 3–4 months or sooner if cooking odors persist. Combine this charcoal filter with the hood’s grease filter (if present) to maintain optimal air cleaning performance.
