Range hoods and fans remove grease and moisture from
cooking, and so collect dirt that needs regular cleaning.
Often wash exposed metal with warm suds solution and
rinse. If very greasy, use ammonia and water and rinse.
Never use abrasive pads or scouring powders as they can
scratch the finish. Wash light bulb when cool with suds
and rinse and dry to keep the light bright.
Occasionally clean fan blades of dirt and grease,
which can restrict air flow, and cause motor over-heating
and fire hazard. Wash the hood with warm, soapy water
often. Wash the inside and outside. Rinse the hood and
wipe it dry. Occasionally take the metal filter out of
the hood. Put the filter in warm, soapy water. Let it
soak for a few minutes. Wash and rinse it. Dry the filter
and put it back in the hood.
Some hoods have charcoal filters. These cannot be
cleaned. They should be replaced about once a year. You
can buy charcoal filters from the store that sells hoods.
Check manual directions for cleaning your hood and
fan. If instead you have electronic air cleaners in place
of a ducted system, follow manual instructions for
regular cleaning of filters. |
