No fat: 7 Simple and rapid ways to clean the hood in the kitchen

If rarely and quickly, it is enough to clean the drawing lattice every 4-6 months, if every day and in large volumes - at least once a month. If this is not done, there will be fat and dust on the lattice, the air will be cleared worse, the noise will become more, and the extract itself will sooner or later fail. In addition, this is a serious violation of the sanitary conditions in which you are preparing your food.

Preparation

1. Disconnect the hood from the outlet.
2. Decorate the locks and pull the fat filter. You can clean only a steel filter. If you have a disposable, made of paper, acrylic or phlizelin, you can only change it. Make it every 3-4 months.
3. Remove the carbon filter if you have a circulation extract that takes the air from the kitchen, cleans and sends back to the room. Wash the coal filter is also impossible, it is changed every 4-6 months. If you have a flow hood, which produces air to the street, periodically need to clean the ventilation channel.
4. Clean the housing itself. As a rule, it is not strongly polluted and you can use the usual dishwashing agent.
