Maintenance Tips
-
Clean Surfaces Often: Wipe interior and exterior with a soft cloth and mild, non‑abrasive cleaner (warm, soapy water) to remove grease and protect the finish — avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive pads that can damage surfaces. Rinse and dry after cleaning.
-
Grease Filter / Blower Area Care: Vent‑A‑Hood hoods with a Magic Lung® blower or grease traps require periodic cleaning of the grease capture areas and blower housing to maintain airflow and reduce fire risk — remove any removable shields and wipe them clean.
-
Inspect Fan & Ductwork: Ensure the blower and duct run are free from blockages and properly sealed to keep optimal extraction performance. Good duct routing improves airflow and reduces noise.
-
Light & Hardware Checks: Replace burnt‑out bulbs promptly and tighten mounting hardware to prevent vibration or operational noise during use.
-
Routine Checkups: Schedule deeper cleans every 3–6 months — check for buildup on fan blades and in ductwork so suction stays effective.
