When We Clean Your Hood

We Go Above and Beyond, Every Single Time.

A quick wipe-down isn't a hood cleaning. Every job means every surface grease can reach, done right, documented, and left cleaner than we found it.

  • All filters degreased and inspected
  • Roof unit and shaft cleaned
  • Floor under the hood cleaned
  • Back stainless steel wall cleaned
  • Your kitchen left cleaner than we found it

What's Included

Every Job Covers the Whole System

No a-la-carte hood cleaning. Every visit is the full scope, no missed spots.

Filter Degreasing

Every baffle or mesh filter pulled, soaked, and degreased. Damaged filters flagged for replacement, not reused.

Roof Fan & Shaft

The exhaust fan and vertical shaft cleaned from the roof down, where most missed grease actually collects.

Ductwork Access Points

Accessible ductwork serviced as part of every visit. Full duct runs quoted straight if your system needs one.

Floor & Back Wall

The floor beneath the hood and the stainless wall behind it, degreased and wiped down before we leave.

Photo Documentation

Before-and-after photos with every job, so you have proof of the work when your inspector or insurer asks.

Compliance Sticker & Report

A dated compliance sticker on the hood and a full service report, ready to show at your next inspection.

How Often You Actually Need It

Cleaning Frequency by Cooking Volume

NFPA 96 sets the schedule by how your kitchen cooks, not a one-size-fits-all calendar. We'll confirm the right interval at your first inspection.

Cooking VolumeTypical OperationRecommended Frequency
High volume24-hour kitchens, wok cooking, charbroilingMonthly
Moderate volumeFull-service restaurants, standard grills and fryersQuarterly
Low volumeChurches, seasonal kitchens, light cookingSemi-annually to annually

General NFPA 96 guidance. Your actual schedule depends on your equipment and cooking methods; we'll set it during inspection, not guess at it.

Hood Cleaning Questions

Straight Answers, No Jargon

NFPA 96 sets frequency by cooking volume. High-volume cooking (24-hour, wok, charbroiling) is typically monthly, moderate-volume kitchens quarterly, and low-volume operations (churches, seasonal kitchens) semi-annually or annually. We'll confirm the right schedule for your system at inspection.

All filters degreased or replaced, the roof fan and shaft cleaned, ductwork access points serviced, and the floor and wall behind the hood cleaned. You get before-and-after photos with every job.

Yes. Every job comes with a compliance sticker on the hood and a full service report, dated and detailed, ready for your fire marshal or insurance carrier.

We service the accessible ductwork and shaft as part of every cleaning. If your system needs a full duct run cleaned, we'll flag it during inspection and quote it straight, no surprise add-ons.
