Agree. My outside is clean but grease is dripping out of the filter housing. I’d have to take the microwave off and apart to get inside!! Need a way to do it without disassembly.
Agree with Adela, our issue isn't cleaning what you cleaned, we know how to do that. It's the "guts" of the vent hood that need it. The fan, the exhaust fluge, etc. Grease drips back down from up in that. Then globules dangle from the clean screen. I may have to remove the fan motor assy and swab up there. Then let it drip until dry I guess. Never done it before. So I am winging it on that idea.
Vinegar is acidic and doesn’t do well on grease, or organic matter. Not sure why everyone suggests it. Alkaline cleaners like degreasers work much better. They do better on organic mattter.
OMG! NO! Please don't use drain opener on anything, even opening drains. Much less anything that is gonna get heat and gonna hang above your food and release fumes at face level. ❶ Do a baking soda wash and scrub with a brush, follow with a vinegar soak then water rinse. AND/OR ❷ Use a garden hose and a nozzle with different patterns that concentrates it in one small jet and simply the water pressure. even better if you have a pressure washer, but the garden hose does the job!
My Hood is painted. I put a coat of good car wax on the hood. All I have to do is wipe it with paper towel. Wipes right off. Do not know if it would work on stainless steel.
Yikes! Drain cleaner is like using a hammer to kill a fly, and it is very bad stuff for the environment. Dawn dish cleaner will do the same thing, if you put a little elbow grease with it!
@@rowenadinsmore1 Dawn is a great de-greaser, and really needs a hot water rinse. Wouldn't it be better for the environment to just replace rather than put poison in our water?
I wonder how to clean the INSIDE of exhaust hood. The filters and outside are easy.
Agree. My outside is clean but grease is dripping out of the filter housing. I’d have to take the microwave off and apart to get inside!! Need a way to do it without disassembly.
I agree haven’t been able to find how to clean the inside, the duct or the fan itself including the blades.
@Aleksandr Yatskevich do you come to aspley in Brisbane.
@@alekswhy88okay I'll call you. How much to come to Manila city, philipines?

What about the greasy fans?

just use industrial degreaser. Drain cleaner will eat away at the surface of the filters
Caution: most drain openers don't react well with steel, as they are very corrosive.
You didn't clean the fan. That's the only bit I was interested in!
Did you ever find a video? Im currently on the search thanks for saving me some time.
That is exactly why I was watching it
Isnt the drain opener corrosive? I see a danger sign on the bottle. It might damage the filter because it is metal?
Damage the filter and when thrown out kill the environment!
Fun to inhale too.
This guy is not even sure what he is talking about. He is not a DIY material. Just kidding! @@kaffarghost3223
Wow, that worked great... will try it on mine! Thank you for sharing..
You're welcome!
How about the fan unit after cleaning the filters...the brown grease streaks are inside as well...
I want to clean inside, the exhaust FAN that is so greasy the fan stops moving
what about the fan??
Would this work on enamel too? Also, Would vinegar and Baking soda do the job without all the toxic dangers? I use that to unclog a slow drain .

Didn't see fan cleaning..
Our hood is painted. Is that safe on paint?

Wow. I’m gonna give that a try!
If you have a chance, let me know if there’s a lot of fumes involved .
What about the internals? The bits that can catch on fire is my concern.
Where do you get those things.
Wow! Ty for sharing! Gonna do that tonight!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤️❤️
👍
For those worried about chemicals and have a power washer it might be an alternative.
What model Frigidaire Range hood you have?? I got same one and my switch seems to be acting up. Need a sight for a heat sense gallery range hood
Really helped
I’m glad it helped
would that drain cleaner be sodium hydroxide?
Not only sodium hydroxide

Amazing. Thanks 👏👏👏👍👍👍🌸🌸🌸
You are welcome 🙏
Good job dear ... Liked it 😁
Thank you so much 😊
Wow i thought that degreaser would get the grease off but drain cleaner? I guess liquid drano would be good.
Yikes! Drain cleaner is like using a hammer to kill a fly, and it is very bad stuff for the environment.
Dawn dish cleaner will do the same thing, if you put a little elbow grease with it!
I have used dawn detergent, it leaves gummy residue on the filter surface.

@@momzilla9491 where will the old one go? Polluting our environment.
But agree, one does not need poison!
@@swissmaid Anything that we do not reuse goes where everything that we do not reuse, goes. Sorry about that!
Omg thank you so so much !
Inside is tough and hard to clean. Only the surface is no use!
I just put the filters in the dishwasher
Nice
Does not address the fan rotor
Honestly, you might as well upgrade to the Hauslane Chef Series C400 range hood. Because your Broan unit ain't cutting it.
I don't want the fast and easy way. I want the best way.
Fan ???? We know how to clean the rest …did you skip the fan ???
why not mix cleaner in first?know its all diluted.
The fan itself and ducting still stink
You did not show how to clean fans
This seems really dangerous. I just soap and water.
Why?
@@sdonna3882 Toxic chemical fumes
he did not do the fan....
Cooler is a good idea to water hot for longer time
isn't it bad to wash these into your kitchen sink? It's gonna clog the drain pipes.
klass
Everybody can that, that's so easy, why putting that in yt, try again.
Sounds good 👍
The point is how do you remove the filter..
