The COS-63190 36'' Wall Mount Stainless Steel Range Hood is designed for efficient performance and easy maintenance, featuring durable, reusable stainless steel ARC-FLOW filters. These filters are designed for long-term use and can be easily cleaned to maintain peak performance.
To keep your COS-63190 in top shape, it's recommended to clean the filters monthly for optimal performance. However, for light cooking, cleaning every 2-3 months might suffice, while for heavy cooking, cleaning every 2-3 weeks is advisable.
Here's a simple step-by-step guide to cleaning your COS-63190 filters:
- Turn Off the Range Hood before starting the cleaning process.
- Gently remove the filters from the underside of the hood without the need for tools.
- Rinse the filters thoroughly with warm water and allow them to air dry completely.
- Soak the filters in hot, soapy water with a small amount of degreasing dish soap for 10-15 minutes.
- Scrub the filters gently using a soft brush or sponge. Be sure to preserve the finish and integrity of the filters and hood by using gentle, non-abrasive cleaners.
- Rinse the filters again under warm water to remove any soap residue.
- Reinstall the filters securely and properly aligned.
Regular cleaning helps maintain efficient smoke and odor removal and prevents grease buildup. It's also crucial for optimal performance, energy efficiency, and longevity of the appliance.
In addition to filter maintenance, regularly wipe down the exterior of the range hood with a damp cloth and mild cleaner. Periodically inspect the vent for any blockages or buildup to ensure efficient smoke and odor removal.
A well-maintained range hood consumes less energy, reducing utility costs. Keeping filters clean prevents grease buildup, which can strain the motor and reduce the lifespan of the appliance.
