Maintenance Tips

Grease Filter Cleaning: Remove and wash metal grease filters every 1–2 months (more often with frequent or heavy cooking) to maintain strong ventilation performance.
-
Fan & Blower Area: With power off, gently wipe the fan/blower area occasionally to prevent grease accumulation and sustain suction.
-
Duct & Vent Check: Seasonally inspect ductwork and external vent connections for blockages to ensure efficient airflow.
-
Controls & Lights: Wipe control panels and light covers with a damp cloth, avoiding excess moisture near electrical components.
