Repair Tips, DIY Help, and Information]
- 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

- 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.
