Maintenance Tips

-
Wipe Exterior Weekly: Use a soft cloth and mild cleaner on the stainless steel surface to remove grease, fingerprints, and smudges.
-
Interior Wipe-Down: After heavy cooking, wipe the hood’s interior to prevent grease accumulation that can affect performance.
-
Check Ductwork: Inspect vents and duct paths periodically to ensure there are no blockages that reduce ventilation efficiency.
-
Replace Charcoal Filters (If Applicable): For recirculating installations, change charcoal filters every 3–6 months to control odors.
-
Inspect Lights & Fasteners: Regularly check and replace bulbs; tighten screws to keep the hood secure and functional.
-
Run Fan After Cooking: Let the fan run 5–10 minutes after use to clear residual smoke, steam, and odors.
