The Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning system removes heat, smoke, and grease from the air, improving indoor air quality. However, when the system isn’t cleaned regularly, it can create a fire hazard and negatively impact your restaurant or commercial kitchen. Regular professional cleanings by a qualified company ensure optimal performance, mitigate fire risks, and keep you in compliance with health and safety regulations.

The primary components of your hood system include the hood, filters, and exhaust fan. When you cook, the hood captures smoke, heat, and grease particles that naturally rise up, which are then captured by the filter and transported through the exhaust fan. The fan then pushes the filtered air outside, keeping your cooking area clean and hygienic. If your hood isn’t properly cleaned, it can cause the ductwork and the fan to become clogged with grease and debris.

Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning Tips for Restaurant Owners

To begin the cleaning process, technicians shut off power to the hood and disconnect the grease line. They then use scrapers, rods, and vacuums to remove all foreign objects from the interior of the hood and ductwork. They then spray food-safe caustic chemicals on the grease surfaces and allow them to dwell for a few minutes before washing them off with hot water. They also scrub the grease troughs and wipe down all visible surfaces of the system.

Once the cleaning process is complete, technicians reinstall the filters and inspect the entire system. They polish off any visible parts of the system and test the exhaust fan to make sure it’s working properly. Finally, they apply a certification sticker to the hood to show the fire inspector, health department, or insurance agent that the system has been cleaned.
