Services
Hood Cleaning
Our comprehensive hood cleaning service removes grease buildup from kitchen exhaust systems. Using hot pressure washing and caustic degreasers, we clean hoods, ductwork, and filters to meet NFPA96 standards. This prevents fire hazards while improving air quality and equipment efficiency through thorough, code-compliant cleaning.
Exhaust System Maintenance
Regular maintenance of kitchen exhaust systems ensures ongoing safety and compliance. We inspect and clean all components including fans, filters, and fire suppression systems. Our process identifies potential issues before they become hazards while maintaining optimal system performance through scheduled service visits.
Fire Safety Compliance
We ensure restaurant exhaust systems meet local fire codes and NFPA96 requirements. Our certified technicians perform complete system inspections and cleaning. This includes verifying fire suppression systems functionality and providing documentation to satisfy regulatory inspections while minimizing fire risks.
Kitchen Deep Cleaning
Beyond standard hood cleaning, we provide comprehensive kitchen sanitation services. Our process includes cleaning hard-to-reach areas, removing grease buildup from equipment surfaces, and ensuring proper waste disposal. This maintains hygiene standards while protecting kitchen infrastructure from grease damage.
Inspection Services
Our detailed inspection service assesses the complete exhaust system condition. Technicians evaluate fan performance, check for grease accumulation, and identify maintenance needs. We provide visual documentation and recommendations to help restaurant owners maintain compliance and plan future cleaning schedules effectively.
