If you're happy, then gently wash the grill over the sink with a sponge. 5. Reassemble If you were the one who assembled it in the first place, then it should be simple to simply reverse this process. However, if the fan arrived in its full form, make sure you know what you're doing. Taking apart your fan can also affect your warranty, so consider this before doing anything.
