Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when
maintained properly and kept clean. Ventilation equipment is
no exception. Your hood must be kept clean and maintained
properly.
Cleaning Baffle Filters
As air passes through a baffle filter, grease particles collect
on the stainless steel U-shaped baffle channels and drip
down into the bottom of the filter. Baffle filters are extremely
efficient when compared to mesh filters. The power of the
hood is increased as more air passes through a baffle filter
than with mesh filters, which are usually dirty. Baffle filters are
almost universally required in commercial installations due to
their superior ability to capture grease. The baffle filters
should be examined periodically to assure that all surfaces
and parts are clean. The filters can be washed in a
dishwasher or in a sink with hot, soapy water. Simple periodic
cleaning will ensure maximum filter effectiveness.
• Do not use caustic detergent to clean the filters. An
abrasive or corrosive cleaner may damage the finish.
• Do not take the baffle filters apart to clean them. It is not
necessary and will void the filter warranty.
CAUTION
Unplug power cords from control panel before cleaning or
servicing hood.
