Best Way To maintenance Hood
In order for the kitchen hood to serve for a long time, it is vital to stick to the rules of its utilization and maintenance.
Taking care of household appliances begins with their installation. Generally, the hood is installed at a height of at least 28 inches over both gas and electric stoves. This is absolutely necessary so that the device does not deform and melt due to high temperatures.
Before installing the appliance, it is recommended to check the presence of draft in the ventilation in advance. If the air is stagnant, it makes sense to clean the ventilation system before using the applaince. Upon installation, it is worth paying attention to the air ducts: they should not be too long and straight, otherwise the noise level will increase sharply and the performance of the appliance will drop significantly.
Those who want the hood to serve for a long time, it is recommended not to turn it on at full power immediately. When properly started on (at a minimum speed, followed by an increase in the air discharge speed), the engine takes less damage from starting currents and the service life of the appliance increases. Models with slider control provide a smoother start. Therefore, they tend to fail less often.
The more polluted the filter, the greater the workload on the motor, so timely cleaning or replacement of filter elements is the key to the absence of breakdowns.
It is essential that the service of the exhaust motor, touch panel and control board takes place at least once a year because of the particles of fat that seeps with air through the air channel.
