Is your kitchen exhaust system putting your business at risk? Grease, smoke and cooking residue quickly build up in commercial kitchen hoods and ductwork – creating a serious fire hazard and reducing ventilation efficiency.
Behind every successful commercial kitchen is a hard-working exhaust system that keeps the air clean, removes grease-laden vapors, and protects your staff and property from potential fire hazards. Over time, grease and smoke residue accumulate inside hoods, filters, ducts, and fans — turning your ventilation system into a hidden fire risk if not cleaned regularly.
That’s where our professional kitchen exhaust cleaning services come in — ensuring your system stays spotless, efficient, and fully compliant with NFPA 96 Fire Code Standards.
1. Fire Prevention:
Grease buildup inside exhaust hoods and ducts is one of the leading causes of restaurant fires. Regular cleaning removes flammable residues, drastically reducing the chance of ignition.
2. Health & Safety Compliance:
Health departments and fire marshals require kitchens to maintain clean and safe ventilation systems. We help you stay compliant with local regulations and insurance requirements.
3. Better Air Quality:
A clean exhaust system removes heat, smoke, and odors more effectively, improving comfort and safety for your kitchen staff.
4. Improved Efficiency & Equipment Life:
Clean systems run more efficiently, putting less strain on your fans and HVAC components, saving energy, and extending equipment lifespan.
Our certified technicians perform a complete top-to-bottom cleaning, not just a surface wipe:
Exhaust Hood Cleaning: Deep degreasing of hood interiors and exteriors.
Filter Cleaning or Replacement: Removal and degreasing of filters for unrestricted airflow.
Ductwork Cleaning: Thorough removal of grease buildup throughout the entire duct system.
