The Hidden Dangers in Your Kitchen Vents & Hoods

Cooking fills your home with delicious smells, but have you ever thought about where all that smoke, grease, and steam goes? Your kitchen vent and hood work hard to pull all that gunk out of the air, but over time, they get clogged with sticky grease and trapped odors.

If you've ever noticed greasy residue on your kitchen cabinets, imagine what's building up inside the vents you can’t see. That’s where bacteria, mold, and even fire hazards start forming.

Why Kitchen Vent Cleaning is a Must

Your kitchen exhaust system does more than just get rid of cooking smells—it keeps your home safe. But when vents get clogged, they stop doing their job.

🔥 Fire Hazard – Grease is highly flammable. If too much builds up, one high-heat cooking session could ignite it.
🦠 Bacteria & Mold Growth – Grease traps moisture, creating the perfect home for bacteria and mildew to thrive.
💨 Poor Ventilation = Lingering Odors – If your kitchen always smells like last night’s dinner, your vent system might be blocked.

How to Keep Your Kitchen Air Clean

✔ Wipe down your range hood weekly – A simple degreaser helps keep buildup in check.
✔ Check your exhaust fan filter every few months – If it’s coated in grease, it’s time for a deep clean.
✔ Schedule a professional vent cleaning once a year – This removes grease from hard-to-reach areas that DIY cleaning won’t fix.

A dirty kitchen vent isn’t just an eyesore—it can impact your air quality and safety. If your vent hasn’t been cleaned in years (or ever), now’s the time to do it!
