How to Clean Range Hood Filters in 5 Minutes with Baking Soda 

When I just saw this vid, I thought it was a fake one showing how well and easy the fake grease came off the grill. So, when I tried it, I didn't really expect much, given I was dealing with probably a 6 year old exhaust mesh that hasnt been cleaned that long. ....But when I tried it just today tho, I was totally amazed how effective it was in removing the sticky thick grease on my parent's exhaust mesh! Good thing I found the vid coz I was thinking of using "Off Oven degreaser" before which wouldve been more hassle in handling given the toxic substance. Thank you for sharing this vid!

This is the best method I have come across cleaning the filters, so therapeutic when it’s all cleaned and clear!! 💙

Thank you, thank you so much for this. Our filters were caked up really bad because they had never been done since we had them and this tip has really helped me. THANK YOU

Thanks! Straight forward cleaning guide.

Thank you and it helps. Our hood fan filter is back to shinny. God Bless

Thank you for the tips. Fantastic results. Just one extra point to pay added attention to the clips that you press to release it from the rangehood as a lot of grease gets stuck in there.

Thank you so much for your help. My filters have never been cleaner. This method is so simple and quick and efficient. The manufacturer's instructions of using a mild soap and warm water never worked.

Recently, I cleaned my range hood filters using cloudy ammonia and although I was reasonably pleased with the result it wasn't really the best. I'll be trying Bicarbonate of Soda in future. Wow! How simple.

Brilliant . Thank you please continue to upload these type of hints and tips videos

This is a great idea, I'll do this from now on. Thankyou!

Your kitchen is so clean!

Best method i have tried worked perfectly Thank You

Awesome 👍 going to try this tomorrow...thank you .

Worked like a charm only that the sink wasn't long enough to hold them fully soaked in so i kept changing half in and half out but everything worked perfectly i used 4 tablespoons of baking soda mixed it well with hot water and used boiling water poured over the filters and little bit of light scrubing thank you so much for the video saved me from buying other kinds of grease removers thought it was impossible to get anything off of these newer style cooking hoods.

This is a super tip and ecologically friendly! I will try this out straight away tomorrow!

Thank you! I’m going to try this.

Your advice on how to clean hood filters in five minutes was easy to follow and spot on! My carpal tunnel hands thank you! Do you have a video for cleaning a gas stove top cooking grill? I believe it is cast iron.

My God, this method works great and is so easy. Thank you😊

Thanks for this! Efficient and cheap! Love the Aussie flavour..☺️🇦🇺

Thank you for posting this! Very helpful

In hamburgerbars, we used dishwashermachine-detergentm like you do herem but we only flipped the filter up and down a number of times, no brush was needed, then we rinsed in clean water and let dry tilted on one corner. We also cleaned behind the filters with another strong detergent.

Thank you you are the best. That really works I was able to clean it really fast. Thank you 👍😃

Thank you. This is a nice tip. Warning! Never use caustic soda. It may damage the filter.

Thank you sooooo much on this tips

Looks so fast and easy, I cannot believe it! Last time I've tried to clean my filters, I've had such a hard time! Definitely gonna try this tomorrow with some baking soda!

Thank you! Got me to get up and face the job! I used your system but added a cup of sugar soap!

Worked very well, thanks.

Very useful! Thanks!

Thank you for the video! I didn't have baking soda so I just used Dawn dish soap and it worked. Love from Toronto 🇨🇦

I'll need to try this method. I tried another method which used hot water, dish soap and white vinegar. It did a good job and all the grease I can see had been cleaned off, but there's still a sticky residue. I'll give this method a go and check the results. Looks good though.

Stick them in the dishwasher on their own. They come up beautifully 😊

Great job, it worked well for me thank you 👏

Brilliant!

I’ve lived in my home for 12 yrs. and NEVER cleaned the stove filter. Today there was black goo dripping from it and then I found this video! Thank you ❣️

Thank you i was going to purchase new ones but just seen your brilliant video 🥰🥰

Thank you so much this helped me so much thank you again

Thank you for this, made my work far easier. One thing though, my drain blocked almost immediately after, with the grease, I got it sorted with a long Auger quite easily. I would suggest that to prevent that happening to you run some very hot water through the sink for a couple of minutes, maybe 3 or 4 kettles full of boiling water slowly or run some degreaser through the pipes after. Other than that great cleaning tip.

I just put our filters in the dishwasher on its hottest cycle and they come out beautifully clean with no faffing about!

Soooooo good, thank you

Great tip, thank you so much 🙏😊

You're a génius ! Compliments from Paris.

Thank you!

thanks! this helped!

thanks for that!!

Any method for decreasing/cleaning the motor fan itself within the hood?

Thank you 🙏🏽

thanks a lot!

I would do this in a mop bucket or any big bucket and dispose the water off the outside sink or street drain. This can clog the sink sometimes. Make sure have a degreaser handy otherwise.

thank you so much for this video

Damn, I tried every kind of harsh cleaning chemical, none worked well. Who would have thought baking soda would work so well? THANKYOU!

Thanks you so much, it really worked!! 5⭐

Thank you :)

It look good.I will try mine later on today

Thanks 😊

Wow it's like magic!

I tried it now n it worked ,thanksssssss

You might need to keep it in the hot water a bit longer with the bicarbonate soda in and then add boiling water and also keep it in for a while... My first attempt didn't work, had to keep it longer,then only it worked ☑️📝 but this surely works 😊

Excellent tip, I hate dirty filters.

Very good Thanks

Thanks alot. I tried to clean.wirh dettol but didnt work after seeing this video it worked like magic.Thku so much 1ce again.

Brilliant

Can I do the same with my carbon filters?

Where do i get bi carb soda powder .? Are Bi carb soda and baking soda different ?

Μπράβο τα έχω καθαρίσει με ακριβό απορρυπαντικό αλλά άφηνε σημάδια και χημικό πολύ άρα με τη σόδα καλύτερα ❤θα το δοκιμάσω

Very nice video.

Thanks new friend here, done my support to ur channel

Very Very helpful badha pase dishwasher nahoy 👍👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤

Wouldn’t that amount of grease be bad for your drain line pipes and dishwasher filter ?

I use a sink with hafe cup degreeser n soak the screen 4 about 10 minutes . But dose anyone know about taking greese off under a stainless steel. Without scratching it

I take mine into the backyard, spray liberally with oven cleaner, then hose off after an hour. Same with oven racks.

That saved me heaps of time

Is it okay to drain the water down the sink with all the grease?

Good!!!!!!

Nice

What about your drains???

Baking soda is Great

Thank you, come again.

Zašto ne stavite filtere u mašinu za sudove?

I put mine in the dishwasher once a week. No fuss no muss.

Hi thanks for the demonstration . I tried your method but i find the grease still stuck on the other side of the filter. Anyone has this problem? The front side looks clean but the other side still looks ugly.

The dish washer works for me.😀

Put them in an automatic dishwasher, with an extra packet of soap, works for me.

why aren't you showing the other side of the filter?

Very useful video. Can you tell me what is the name of the range hood you have? I have the same ( no name on it) I need to buy a new filter , so asking.

My filter is bigger and can't fit in the sink

Dear, if you have dishwasher machine, put them into the dishwasher, after one or two cycles them will be sparkling...

I always put inside the dishwasher.

The smàll filters are easy ,What about the big ones? That dont fit anywhere to clean

I think its better to use Natriumcarbonat AKA Soda. Its used for washing and cleaning only, its a strong fat cleaner. I think its also called washing soda. I think Natriumbicarbonate is for cooking a cake.

Dishwasher 👍🏻

She uses hot water to melt the grease off of the filters. Baking soda isn’t really doing anything. The grease can easily clog a drain.

Put it in the dishwasher , so simple.

can I just throw it in the dishwasher

Even easier if you put them in the dishwasher 👍

I tried this but it stained the metal - the filters now are clean but have these dark spots on it. Is that maybe because of the bi-carb soda?

Stick the metal filters by themselves in the dishwasher and put through a heavy cleaning cycle.
