Hood Cleaning
A. Hood Canopy
Wipe down the interior and exterior of the hood as needed with a soft
cloth and warm soapy water (liquid dish detergent is acceptable). Do
not use acids, abrasives, strong detergents, solvents, or scouring
pads. Stainless steel should be treated with a quality stainless steel
cleaner such as Stainless Steel Magic
®
(Vent-A-Hood part number
SS64
®
). Follow all label instructions. Do not polish across the grain
or in circles.
Real brass, real copper, and hammered copper hoods will oxidize
and/or tarnish over time. Use a quality copper or brass cleaner such
as Red Bear Copper Polish
®
(Vent-A-Hood
®
part number CP101).
Follow all label instructions. Do not polish across the grain or in
circles. Do not use acids, abrasives, strong detergents, degreasers,
solvents, or scouring pads.
B. Blower Unit
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, be sure the
power is turned off in the hood before removing the shield(s)
and blower housing(s).
The Vent-A-Hood
®
Magic Lung
®
blower captures grease by-products
in the blower housing(s) and E-Z Clean blower shield(s). E-Z Clean
blower shields require more frequent cleaning than the blower
housing but individual cooking habits determine how often each item
will need to be cleaned.
E-Z Clean blower shields are easily removed for cleaning by pulling
the E-Z Clean blower shield(s) toward the front of the hood being
careful to keep the tray level if the hood has been recently used.
