Keep your facility safe and efficient with our thorough ductwork cleaning services, eliminating grease and other hazards.
Commercial kitchen ductwork cleaning is crucial for maintaining a safe, clean work environment. Ducts are often overlooked in commercial kitchen maintenance because they are difficult to access and can be hidden in dark areas. When this happens, grease accumulates unnoticed. As grease settles on surfaces, it creates a higher risk of fire in your commercial kitchen. Hiring a professional ductwork cleaning service to clean your ductwork regularly is the only way to avoid the harmful effects of mold and other bacteria.
While it is crucial to perform regular cleaning on your commercial kitchen ductwork, you also need to have regular inspections to ensure your ductwork is up to code and nothing is in danger of breaking. Commercial kitchen ductwork inspections are also essential to maintaining the safety of your kitchen. The inspection includes looking for any structural damage, leakage, and the proper installation of the equipment.
A lot of factors go into determining how long it will take for a hood cleaning service to clean your commercial kitchen hood. One of the biggest factors is the overall size of your commercial kitchen. If you are curious about how much time it will take to clean your commercial kitchen, the best advice we can give you is to get in touch with us today so we can review your needs and give you a time estimate.
The frequency depends on your facility’s usage. For commercial kitchens, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 96) recommends cleaning every 3-12 months, based on cooking volume—monthly for high-volume operations like 24-hour restaurants, quarterly for moderate use, and semi-annually for low use. Industrial facilities like warehouses may need annual or bi-annual cleaning, depending on activity levels. Our professional assessment can determine the best schedule for you.
