    Holy crap. Oil in the wok was a bit too hot/water content in food a bit to high and oil splattered onto the gas burner - whoosh. got it stopped but not before it made a mess of the range hood. Holy crap that was close. Gonna need a new rangehood (from whom does one even buy a rangehood?). Excuse me while I go freak out in the corner for a bit

      Scary. Is there any chance fire could have spread up the ducting in the rangehood? If so you might want the brigade to check the roof as a precaution - and you many need to get a report for an insurance claim too.

        I believe its ok but thanks. I stuck my head in the roof cavity and all ok and I got it turned off nearly immediately. A bit of the plastic is melted and the fine mesh.

        awesome. I loke appliances online. I just tried it and the fan is still working which is amazing! Gonna get an electrician mate to have a close look though.
