5 Ways to Extend the Lifespan of Your Rangehood Filters

Published on November 1, 2024

Commercial rangehood filters do the heavy lifting of trapping grease and pollutants in busy Adelaide kitchens. But frequent replacements can become costly. Fortunately, with the right maintenance routines, you can significantly extend the lifespan of your rangehood filters.

1. Pre-Soak in Warm, Soapy Water

Before a deep clean, let filters soak in hot water mixed with a mild degreaser. This helps loosen hardened grease.

2. Use a Soft Brush

Gently scrub away debris with a non-abrasive brush. Abrasive scrubbers may damage the filter’s mesh, reducing its effectiveness.

3. Rinse Thoroughly

Residual detergent can trap new grease quickly. Ensure you rinse filters fully under hot water to remove any soap residue.

4. Dry Completely

Moisture left on the filter can corrode metal components. Pat filters dry or let them air-dry thoroughly before reinstallation.

5. Schedule Regular Professional Check-Ups

Even with diligent daily care, commercial kitchens benefit from periodic professional inspections. Experts at D and D Cleaning Co can spot issues early and offer specialized treatments to preserve filter life.

By following these tips, you’ll reduce filter replacements and maintain a safer, more efficient kitchen. Need assistance? Get in touch with D and D Cleaning Co for top-notch cleaning services in Adelaide.
