Ventilation
|
The main reason we want to be keeping the hood filter clean is for the efficient ventilation of the air passing through it. Naturally, the job of the filter is to capture the grease and oil particles that pass through it and effectively hold them in place. Over time, this trapped oil begins to cover the filter and like any other filter in your car or home, the build-up can stop the ventilation of air. But the worst part is that once the ventilation stops, this oil and grease that is not being captured lingers in the kitchen creating a harmful work environment where bacteria can build up and grease can even drip back into the pan that you are cooking in! Gross! That’s why it is important to keep your hood cleaning on a tight schedule and check often that ventilation is possible with your kitchen hood filter.
