How often does my kitchen exhaust hood need to be cleaned?
Most commercial kitchens need hood cleaning every 3 months, but the right frequency depends on cooking volume and type. High-volume operations like 24-hour diners or wok/charbroiling restaurants often need monthly service, while lower-volume kitchens (churches, seasonal venues) may only need service every 6 months. NFPA 96 sets the baseline standards insurers and fire marshals reference.
Is hood cleaning required by law?
Yes. Most jurisdictions require commercial kitchens to follow NFPA 96 fire code, which mandates regular exhaust system cleaning based on cooking volume. Local health departments and fire marshals conduct inspections, and non-compliance can result in fines, failed inspections, or voided insurance coverage.
Will hood cleaning affect my insurance?
Yes — most insurance policies require proof of regular hood cleaning to maintain coverage, especially after a kitchen fire claim. We provide certification stickers and detailed service reports after every cleaning that you can submit directly to your insurer or fire inspector.
What's included in a full hood cleaning service?
A complete service covers the hood, filters, ductwork, exhaust fan, and rooftop components — not just the visible surfaces. We degrease from the cooking surface all the way to the fan discharge, since grease buildup anywhere in the system is a fire risk.
How long does a hood cleaning appointment take?
Most single-hood systems take 2–4 hours depending on grease buildup and system complexity. We typically schedule during off-hours or overnight to avoid disrupting your kitchen operations.
Do you provide certification after cleaning?
Yes. Every completed job includes a certification sticker placed on the hood system and a detailed inspection report documenting before/after condition, areas cleaned, and any code violations found — the documentation your fire marshal or insurer will ask for.
