The range hood is a must-have appliance in the kitchen. It is mainly used to absorb the fumes produced when cooking and keep the kitchen clean. However, over time, some oil stains will stick to the range hood and are difficult to remove. Therefore, regular cleaning is necessary. So how can you clean the heavy oil stains on the range hood?

How to remove heavy oil stains from hoods

First, we need to prepare a bowl with water, add baking soda, toothpaste, and some high-proof liquor to the water and stir well.

Next, you can dip a scouring pad in detergent and wipe the oily areas repeatedly. The abrasive contained in the toothpaste can effectively remove oil stains.

For stains that are long-standing and difficult to clean, we can also dismantle the range hood, soak it in homemade cleaning agent, and finally gently wipe it with a steel wool, and all the oil stains will disappear!

What to use to clean oil stains on range hoods

1. Clean with soap. First of all, we don't need to disassemble the range hood when washing it, as it is too troublesome to install it again after washing. As for the choice of cleaning tools, we can use soap, because the alkalinity of soap is strong enough to perfectly remove grease, and it will not cause damage to the body like some detergents;

The steps for soap cleaning are as follows: dip your hands in water and rub them with soap, then rub the soapy liquid on your hands on the range hood. After waiting for a while, use a cloth dampened with water to wipe the stains on the range hood. How about it, isn’t it simple?

Second, use detergent. You may not know that detergent is also a good hand for cleaning range hoods. First, pour the detergent into hot water, then mix it with an appropriate amount of white vinegar, and finally use this basin of mixed water to scrub the range hood. You will be surprised to find that the oil stains will fall off as soon as you wipe them;

Third, professional cleaning agents. The above soaps and detergents are for range hoods with smaller oil stains. If the oil stains are large and particularly stubborn, you must use a special cleaning agent, because only in this way can you effectively remove various stubborn stains.

Why is there always a lot of oil in the oil box of the range hood?

1. The oil and smoke of this range hood are separated cleanly, so there is a lot of oil in the oil box. If the separation is not clean, the oil smoke will be blown out of the house. You can see that many old communities have large greasy and black oil stains inside and outside the kitchens. That is because the oil smoke is not separated cleanly.

2. You use too much oil when cooking, which is too much. Therefore, a lot of oil smoke is separated in a short time. It is recommended to eat less oil, eat good oil, and stay away from the three highs.

3. I cook more at home and eat less out, so the amount accumulated is large. This is possible. Cooking by yourself can be lighter and healthier.

Ms. Zhao complained to the public welfare consumer complaint platform 21CN: "Since I installed the Robam brand range hood, I have never used it once, and the flue has always been smelling. Whenever someone downstairs cooks, there will be smells flowing back into the house. The installer said that this is how it is and it cannot be sealed.
