  • Household appliances have average lifetime expectancies. Maintaining your appliances properly can extend their lifetime indefinitely.
  • If you have to do any kind of repair or maintenance on this unit, make sure to unplug it from the power supply.
  • Use a properly grounded outlet if your vent hood is not wired directly to your household power supply.
  • Wipe down the exterior and interior of the hood often.
  • To clean thoroughly, use hot water, detergent, and a splash of ammonia to cut the grease buildup. You can also purchase Mean Green, a very good degreaser, from the cleaner accessories section of our website. Check out the rest of our Cleaners while you're visiting us!
  • Clean the metal mesh filters often. These can retain grease and be a fire hazard. Use a degreaser (Mean Green) and hot water to rinse it. This filter can be cycled through a dishwasher as well. Wipe the fan blades regularly.
  • Change any activated charcoal or other filters as the manufacturer suggests.
  • Check the vent and ducts periodically for grease buildup. Contact a chimney sweep or the equivalent as needed.
