Protect Your Kitchen with Expert Exhaust Cleaning by Hood Safe LLC

The NFPA 96 standard and local fire codes require that commercial kitchens clean their exhaust systems regularly to minimize grease buildup. The main components of your kitchen exhaust system include the hood, filters, and fan. The hood is designed to capture smoke, heat, and grease vapors that rise during cooking. The hood is attached to the ductwork, which transports the vapors through the fan and out of your building. The ductwork is typically made of metal and features baffles that can catch the grease particles. The hood and ductwork are typically cleaned by using caustic chemicals to break down the grease. Once the grease has been broken down, the chemicals are rinsed away with hot water.

After the cleaning is complete, your technician will polish the hood and backsplash, remove the plastic cover from the fan, reinstall the filters, wipe down the ductwork and ceiling, and test the exhaust fan to make sure it works properly. They will then apply a certification sticker to the hood and place a new inspection tag on the system.
