ExhaustCLEAN’s FirstCLEAN initial service is a full-on frontal assault where we pull out all the stops for an intensive initial cleaning of your system, following up on our preliminary assessment formed during the ExposureAUDIT. The amount of highly flammable grease and debris removed during a FirstCLEAN service can be as significant as 30 to 60 pounds in some cases.
Schedule Your Initial Cleaning & Inspection
As part of this service we get to know your system inside and out, and identify what measures need to be taken going forward. We ensure that all of your components are in optimum condition, addressing whatever repairs, replacements or additions may be required. We install any necessary fittings, such as fan hinges, grease containment systems and access panels for horizontal ductwork which will facilitate future cleanings and upkeep.
The FirstCLEAN service takes considerably more time and effort than the basic routine cleanings we will perform on subsequent visits. This ensures that all components are operating at maximum efficiency and that any potential problems can be identified and remedied from the outset of ExhaustCLEAN’s service relationship with your business or facility.
What is commercial hood cleaning?
Commercial hood cleaning is the process of thoroughly cleaning and maintaining the exhaust system in commercial kitchens. It involves removing grease, oil, and other debris that accumulate over time and pose a fire hazard. Regular hood cleaning is crucial to ensure a safe and healthy environment in commercial kitchens.
How often should commercial hood cleaning be done?
The frequency of commercial hood cleaning depends on several factors, including the type of cooking equipment, the volume of cooking, and local regulations. As a general guideline, most commercial kitchens should have their hoods cleaned at least every three to six months. However, high-volume kitchens or those that use a lot of grease may require more frequent cleanings.
Can I clean my commercial hood myself?
NFPA 96 code mandates that commercial hood cleaning must be conducted by an individual acceptable to local authorities and covered by insurance. Choosing a professional kitchen hood cleaning technician is crucial as they possess the required knowledge, equipment, and cleaning agents for effective cleaning. Their expertise in correctly disassembling and cleaning components helps reduce fire hazards and ensures adherence to regulations.
