How It Works
Complete Restaurant Exhaust Cleaning Process
Grease doesn't stop at the hood canopy. It spreads throughout the entire exhaust system, including ducts, fans, vents and rooftop units. Our restaurant exhaust cleaning service cleans the entire system from top to bottom.
We inspect the hood system, ducts, filters and exhaust fans to determine grease buildup levels and cleaning requirements. We also provide a grease level assessment report for better maintenance tracking and inspection readiness.
We protect cooking equipment, countertops, and surrounding areas before cleaning begins to ensure no mess or disruption to your kitchen.
Grease filters and hood surfaces are deep cleaned with professional degreasers and commercial cleaning equipment.
We remove grease buildup from inside the duct system to improve airflow and reduce hidden fire hazards throughout your kitchen.
Exhaust fans and rooftop units are cleaned to maintain proper ventilation and system performance.
Once cleaning is complete we do a final inspection to ensure the system is clean and ready to go.
