Maintenance Tips
-
Clean Filters Monthly: Remove and wash the stainless/mesh filters in warm, soapy water or dishwasher to maintain peak airflow and grease capture.
-
Wipe Exterior Weekly: Use a soft microfiber cloth with mild detergent or stainless-steel polish; wipe with the grain to preserve finish and prevent streaks.
-
Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive pads, bleach, or corrosive chemicals — these can damage the stainless surface and trim.
-
Check Lights & Controls: Wipe light covers and test buttons/sensors regularly; replace bulbs with manufacturer-approved LEDs only.
-
Inspect Exhaust & Ducting: For ducted setups, inspect every 6–12 months and clean ducts to prevent grease buildup and maintain 1000 CFM performance.
-
Annual Deep Clean: With power off, gently clean inside housing, around blower and fan, and behind filters to remove trapped grease and prolong motor life.
