Understanding the Importance of Clean Kitchen Hoods

Frequent cooking results in a buildup of creosote and grease in your kitchen exhaust hood system, which poses a serious fire hazard. The National Fire Protection Association NFPA 96 enforces strict regulations regarding commercial kitchen exhaust system cleaning and maintenance. Non-compliance could lead to fines and even closure. Additionally, insurance companies will require regular cleanings to reduce the risk of claims.

Following kitchen hood cleaning and maintenance best practices prevents devastating kitchen fires and ensures your kitchen complies with commercial kitchen laws.

Kitchen Exhaust System Cleaning Challenges

Failing to clean and maintain your commercial kitchen exhaust hood could result in the following adverse effects:

• Increased fire risk: A clogged kitchen exhaust hood increases your fire risk significantly, which you can minimize through regular kitchen exhaust hood cleaning.
• Ingress of smoke: A significant grease buildup in your exhaust hood can produce smoke in the kitchen, making for a less-than-ideal environment for employees.
• Steeper maintenance costs: Excessive grease and creosote accumulation require aggressive cleaning and could result in damage, making maintenance and repair costly.
