Oil fume pipe cleaning and maintenance methods

For our kitchen, we usually use range hoods, which is very important to us, because range hoods are usually used when cooking. However, range hoods are easy to get dirty after long-term use, and they are also easy to be covered with oil stains. At this time, we need to clean them. So what are the cleaning methods for range hood pipes?

As the name suggests, the oil fume duct is a device for removing and dissipating the oil fume generated in the kitchen. The oil fume duct is widely used around us. Before installing the oil fume duct, you should fully consider the installation locations of various facilities in the kitchen and the practical space range, and make reasonable planning for the installation of the oil fume duct.

Oil fume duct cleaning-principle

Due to the working principle of the oil fume duct, the flue needs to be cleaned frequently during our use. There will be a lot of oil stains remaining on the range hood and the flue surface during use, which will form grease over time. This will be very troublesome and difficult to remove the grease when we clean it. The generation of grease will seriously affect the use of the range hood and the oil fume duct, making the oil fume circulation unsmooth and making it more difficult to remove the oil fume. The cleaning of the oil fume duct is very troublesome. Here is an introduction to some methods of cleaning the oil fume duct. I hope it will be helpful to everyone.

Oil fume duct cleaning-key points

When cleaning the oil fume duct, cleaning the hood and stove is also indispensable. Before cleaning the oil fume duct, we should clean the surface of the hood, exhaust port, lampshade inside the hood, exhaust port, motor, and stove. At the same time, the focus of cleaning is the exhaust duct that is synchronous and parallel to the hood at the connection between the exhaust port and the hood. Cleaning these parts can not only make the flue pipe play its role better after cleaning, but also make the whole kitchen room cleaner and tidier. A good working gathering can improve the work efficiency of chefs and provide us with more and better delicacies.

Oil fume duct cleaning-time

The heavier oil smoke in the oil smoke duct will settle at the elbows of the vertical flue and the horizontal flue, and a very small amount of oil smoke will remain on the inner wall of the vertical flue and will not take shape. If the time for cleaning the oil fume duct is less than half a year, we can temporarily not clean the external vertical flue, because the lighter oil fume has been sucked away by the fan, so for the oil fume duct that is less than half a year, we only need to clean the elbows of the flue. Under normal circumstances, it is recommended to clean the oil fume duct once every six months.

When cleaning the oil fume duct, due to the limitations of our personal cleaning equipment, most people will ask for help from a professional company. The company generally uses a high-pressure jet to enhance the oil removal agent to remove oil from the oil fume duct. After the oil removal treatment, the smoke pipe will be maintained, which can significantly improve the oil fume airflow and make the circulation smoother. At the same time, the formation of a protective film can reduce the residual oil stains and protect the inner wall of the oil fume duct. Provide convenience for future use.

Oil fume duct cleaning-standard

The cleaning standard for oil fume ducts is: after cleaning the hood and flue, more than 90% of the original iron color of the inner wall of the flue can be seen, without any stubborn grease stains, the surface of the stove is oil-free and bright and clean, more than 90% of the surface of the fan impeller can see the primer, there is no precipitated oil stains at the bottom of the motor, and there is no oil stains and stubborn grease on the outside of the pipe. The above is the editor’s introduction to the methods and key cleaning areas of the oil fume duct. I hope it will be helpful to those who want to clean the oil fume duct.

When the range hood is dirty, we cannot just clean the outside, which is not good for the maintenance effect of the range hood. In fact, we should pay attention to the internal cleaning of the range hood, clean the oil pot more often, including the pipes of the range hood, and the fan part must also be cleaned. Regular cleaning can maintain the range hood while ensuring the air quality in the house.
