Unless you don't care about results, but if your in the restaurant business you do. Soak them in a soulution overnight if they're stainless or galv. you can use a oven and grill cleaner type soulution, if the filters are aluminum use a milder cleaner. Nothing with potassium hydroxide, or sodium hydroxide, thats what pits the metal, because of the carbon alloys in the aluminum. After soaking over night, spray off with hot water with a hose and a spray nozzle, or a t&s hose, if the grease is real thick and heavy, knock,and scrape off as much grease as possible before soaking, and use a pressure cleaner to spray off, if you don't have one, invest in one. If your filters are that thick with grease you need it for proper maintenece.
