With this service, a professional thoroughly cleans all parts of the exhaust system, including the filters, ducts, range hood and fan blades. The service removes grease and other residue and keeps your kitchen compliant with fire safety standards, such as NFPA 96.

Most commercial kitchens require hood cleanings every 3 to 6 months to maintain safety and compliance. This schedule depends on several factors, including use and cooking volume. With ExhaustCLEAN, you will have a designated account manager for all communications who will help you schedule your cleanings accordingly and keep you up to date with when your next cleaning is due.
A professionally done commercial kitchen hood cleaning can take anywhere from two to six hours, depending on the size of the kitchen, the amount of grease buildup and the complexity of the setup.
All facilities with a commercial kitchen in the United States, including facilities in North Carolina, are subject to the National Fire Protection Association’s NFPA Kitchen Hood Cleaning Requirements (NFPA 96).
A professional technician inspects and thoroughly cleans all parts of the hood system during commercial hood cleaning, including scraping and degreasing surfaces, cleaning ductwork, and ensuring fans are clean, using specialized tools and cleaning agents to remove grease and contaminants.
