AI Generated Summary

Warm water and dishwashing liquid can help remove light grease from your exhaust fan. Add a few drops of dishwashing liquid to a bowl of warm water. Dip a soft cloth into the mixture and squeeze out the extra water.

Gently wipe the outer surface of the fan to remove dirt and grease. Important: Do not allow water or soap to enter the motor, switches or other electrical parts.

 Use baking soda for stubborn grease

If the grease is difficult to remove baking soda may help.

Mix a small amount of baking soda with water to make a thick paste. First remove any loose dust from the fan. Then apply the paste to the greasy areas and leave it for a few minutes. Wipe it away with a soft damp cloth.

Avoid using hard brushes or scrubbing too strongly as this may scratch the fan’s surface.
