Maintenance Tips
-
Wipe Exterior Weekly: Clean the stainless‑steel surface with a soft cloth and mild detergent or warm, soapy water to remove grease, fingerprints, and smudges; always wipe with the grain and avoid abrasive pads/steel wool that can scratch the finish.
-
Clean Internal Grease Areas: Vent‑A‑Hood’s filterless Magic Lung® design captures grease inside the blower housing — regularly wipe internal grease‑collection surfaces and blower housing with warm, soapy water to prevent buildup and maintain efficient airflow.
-
Inspect Ductwork & Vent Paths: If vented outside, periodically check that ducts and vent openings are clear of obstructions so the blower can ventilate smoke and odors effectively.
-
Check Lights & Hardware: Wipe light covers and replace bulbs as needed; tighten loose screws to keep lighting bright and the hood secure.
-
Run Fan After Cooking: Let the fan run 5–10 minutes after cooking to clear lingering smoke and odors and reduce residue buildup.
