That’s why we launched Reliable Resource, our short video series where our in-house experts answer the most asked questions about cleaning and maintenance. In this post, we’ve collected our most-requested hood and vent cleaning FAQs, with clear, practical answers from our in-house expert John Lafantaisie, that you can act on.
