    Hotpoint Cooker Hood

    Anyone have a contact for someone that can fix or service mine. Not happy to pay the rip off rated that Hotpoint demand.

    Cheers

    There will not be much to service ! Change charcoal filters (if fitted) , clean grease filters and remove the fluff from around the motor .

    Charcoal filters can be bought on ebay.

    Whats wrong with yours ?

    No they won't. I wouldn't waste my time with a cooker hood as it's not worth it. How can you justify a £40 bill when you can buy a hood for a couple of quid more.

    If it isn't a straight forward fault you can waste 2-3 hours out your day including travel and not earn a penny.

    If you do find the fault and have to order the part then you can end up lumbering someone with a ridiculous bill for a temperamental appliance.

    It's the power board that's gone. The extractor fan works but the light doesnt. I looked at replacing it but it would be a couple hundred quid then probably close to same again to fit it. It's a fitted chimney type so not that easy.

    I had a quote yesterday for circa £100 might just get it done.

    Try and source the power board yourself - Edinburgh Components at Bonnington are the cheapest out there and you should be able to replace it yourself.

    Their no is 553 3100. Quote manufacturer and model no.
