What should I do if the kitchen smells bad in summer?

As the weather gets hotter, if the leftovers, fruits, and vegetable scraps of the day are not disposed of overnight or for several days, you will find a lot of small bugs flying around the trash can, accompanied by a disgusting smell. 

Want to completely get rid of the trouble of kitchen odor? DE&E will take you step by step to uncover the mystery behind the odor in the kitchen so that the kitchen can be renewed back to it's nature and freshness.

If you want to stop kitchen odors, you have to start from the source:

Reason:The range hood is used for long-term cooking, and the odor emitted by the oil stains accumulated inside the range hood.

Countermeasures:

①Install the Range hood with automatic cleaning technology to separate the grease in the fume and reduce the amount of grease attached to the hood, which not only reduces the generation of peculiar smells but also better cleans the machine;

The DE&E series hoods have been used for 120 hours and automatically prompt cleaning. One click to turn on the electric heating high-temperature cleaning function. DE&E Range hood part will show an automatic cleaning reminder when it has been working for an accumulative 120h. One click to start a high-temperature cleaning function to soften the internal lampblack and throw it off at high speed. Fast cleaning and prolong the service life.

② Develop a good habit of regularly cleaning the hood by hand.

Reason: Like the Range hood, the surface of the GasHob is also one of the most prone to accumulation of oil stains. Accidentally sprinkled soup and splashed oil stains will become the source of the bad odor.

Countermeasures: After each meal, use a rag to clean it while the GasHob is still warm; if there are more stubborn soup stains, you can wipe it with neutral detergent and hot water.

Reason:Cabinets often need to store bottle storage, tableware, kitchenware, etc. If the house is relatively humid, it will cause moldy corners over time, resulting in a musty smell.

Countermeasures：Clean the moldy items first and then ventilate the room to disperse the smell. Put a bar of soap or drink leftover tea bags in Cabinets to get rid of the musty smell.

For other different kitchen appliances, DE&E has sorted out some odor treatment methods for you, and you can refer to and use them according to the actual situation:

Put lemon slices or orange peels into ovens, and bake at 100°C for about 1 hour, which can effectively remove the odor from the oven.

DE&E Tips:

①When baking greasy food, it is recommended to put it on the middle and lower layers. When using a grill, put a baking tray under it and then cover the surface of the food with tin foil for easy cleaning;

②After use, try to clean in time when the ovens still have a residual temperature;

③If there is more stubborn grease, you can use a baking pan or metal container to put a certain amount of boiling water into the ovens, let the water vapor soften the grease, and it is easy to scrub. (You can not wash the cavity with alkaline and corrosive substances)

After washing, clean up a small amount of residue in the cavity in time. Clean the inside of the machine regularly, and open the door properly to ensure ventilation.

If it is a new machine: Cut off the fixed cable ties on the pull basket, take out the upper and lower baskets and clean them. Wipe the inside of the sterilizer with a damp cloth, then turn on the drying machine, and open the sliding door after the end to ensure ventilation and let the smell in the sterilizer evaporate.

If it is an old machine: Cut off the cable ties, clean up the items near the quartz tube. Clean up in time before the plastic parts melt, and put the plastic tableware in the upper basket to avoid the lower heating element.

After each use, open the door, let the water vapor in the box dissipate, and use an absorbent sponge to clean up the water in the steam box. If the smell is still there, you can put some lemonade in the water tank and let the steam & grill oven work for a while.
