I’ve got some screen-like filters in the hood of my oven. The blower that is used to suck up smoke from the stove does not work very well because I think that the screen filter needs to be cleaned. I imagine that just soaking the filters in water won’t do the trick and I’m looking for a solution that will completely degrease and de-gunk the filter. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
What is the best way to clean (and degrease) oven hood screen filters?

Put the screen in the sink and soak it with liquid dish soap, then pour boiling water over it . Grease is very hard to come off and you can buy replacement filters at a hardware store if it still yucky.
use crud cutter or purple made by zep this is found at a home depot woorks great if you choose to use the purple make sure you use rubber gloves and protect the eyes purple is the strongest of the two they both around 8-11 $ per gal
TSP detergent or the dishwasher.
I use the cleaner mean green, works great…just spray on and wipe off…so this several times….i also take the filters out and put into sink, spray, let soak and wash with warm water…good luck it is a dirty job but everyone has to do this one.
use Dawn dish soap and soak overnight Dawn gets grease out of just about anything
