What kitchen hood cleaning includes
Grease builds up in hoods, filters, ducts and rooftop fans, and it is a leading fuel in kitchen fires. Hood cleaning companies clean the whole exhaust system on a schedule based on how much cooking you do, and leave a service sticker for inspectors.
Hood and filters
Hood interior scraped and degreased; filters cleaned or exchanged.
Ductwork
Accessible horizontal and vertical ducts cleaned.
Exhaust fan
Rooftop fan cleaned and checked.
Documentation
Service sticker and report with photos for your records.
After-hours service
Most work overnight so the kitchen is ready for the next service.
