Method 3: Steam Cleaning (Powerful for Deep Grease Removal)
If you have a steam cleaner, it can be a powerful tool for removing built-up grease quickly.
Instructions:
1. Safety first:
Wear gloves and ensure your steam cleaner is working properly. Steam is extremely hot and can cause burns.
2. Prepare the area:
Lay down towels or newspaper to catch drips and loosened grease.
3. Steam clean the filter:
Turn on your steam cleaner and allow it to heat up. Direct the steam slowly across the filter’s surface. The high heat dissolves grease instantly.
4. Wipe away residue:
After steaming, use a cloth or sponge to wipe away melted grease. Rinse the cloth frequently to avoid spreading residue.
