“In my 40-plus years in the restaurant business, I have never had a hood cleaning company as professional, punctual and thorough as ExhaustCLEAN. By doing more complete cleaning, we don’t have to clean so frequently, saving money and getting better results. I never worry about problems with my hood system. I receive before and after photos showing the perfect finished job. ExhaustCLEAN is simply the best.”
