Vent-a-Hood grease collection problem

3 days ago

Vent-a-Hood help wanted!! We have an under-cabinet Magic Lung 36” range hood that is direct-vented to the outside. We frequently have grease dripping down from the blower shield onto our cooktop. Each time we remove the blower shield to clean it, we note that grease is not being contained in the “drip pan” portion of the shield. Rather, the grease accumulates outside the pan, where it then freely drips onto the cooktop and down the backsplash because there isn’t a lip on the sides of this section to prevent the grease from dripping. Looking at the blower shield, it would seem that the grease should be accumulating in the edged interior pan section. I contacted customer service; they thought it could be an installation/ducting problem, but there aren’t many options since it’s vented directly through the wall to the outside. Ideas?? 😕
