BROAN-NuTone S97007696 Filter
The BROAN-NuTone S97007696 Filter is a critical component for maintaining air quality in non-ducted range hoods. Measuring exactly 8 3/4" x 10 1/2" x 3/8", this aluminum grease mesh and charcoal combo filter is engineered to capture airborne particulates and neutralize cooking odors before recirculating air back into the kitchen. Designed as a high-performance replacement for the NuTone 41F filter, it features a multi-layer media construction that provides optimal surface area for grease entrapment without compromising blower motor efficiency. For HVAC technicians and property managers, ensuring the use of a genuine replacement filter is essential for protecting the range hood internal components from grease buildup. This S97007696 range hood filter is compatible with a wide range of Broan-NuTone 41000, 46000, and RL6200H series units. To maintain peak ventilation performance, this non-washable activated carbon filter should be swapped out every 6 to 12 months depending on the frequency of high-heat cooking and grease production.
Key Benefits- Dual-Action Filtration: Combines an aluminum mesh for grease trapping with charcoal carbon for effective odor removal.
- Precision Fit: 8.75 x 10.5 x .375 inch dimensions ensure a secure seal within Microtek System I and II range hoods.
- Motor Protection: Prevents grease from accumulating on the fan blade and motor, extending the service life of the appliance.
- Direct OEM Replacement: Seamlessly replaces legacy part numbers including 97007696, 97005687, and 51113711.
Is the S97007696 filter washable?
No. Because this is a charcoal carbon combo filter, it cannot be washed or degreased. Introducing water will degrade the carbon media and compromise its ability to neutralize odors. It must be replaced entirely once the mesh becomes saturated.
How do I confirm compatibility with my range hood?
Check the model tag located inside the hood, usually behind the existing filter. This 8-3/4" x 10-1/2" filter fits most 30-inch non-ducted Broan models, including the BUEZ1, F40000, and RL series.
What is the difference between this and a standard grease filter?
A standard grease filter only uses aluminum mesh to catch oils. The S97007696 includes an added layer of activated charcoal specifically for ductless applications where air is not vented outside, making it necessary for scrubbing smells from the air.
