How to clean an exhaust fan without taking it down

Times of India — Astrology & Spirituality · 6 Aug 2026, 1:01 pm

Regular maintenance cleans exhaust fans effectively while they remain in place. Switching off power and removing dry dust prevents damage and eases cleaning. Wiping the grille and blades with a damp cloth removes everyday dirt. A soft toothbrush cleans narrow corners, and degreasers tackle stubborn kitchen grease. Allowing the fan to dry naturally prevents electrical issues and ensures efficiency.
