It is important to get your commercial kitchen exhaust system cleaned professionally on a regular basis because the grease buildup becomes a fire hazard. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 96 provides schedules for how often a commercial kitchen needs to be cleaned and degreased in order to mitigate the risks of fire. In addition, having your kitchen equipment cleaned and serviced on a regular maintenance schedule will prolong their useful life and keep them in peak performance. This will ultimately affect your pocketbook, and even the taste of the food.

There are a number of factors that can affect the proper cleaning frequency of your kitchen equipment. What are the insurance requirements per NFPA 96? What are the enforcement procedures adopted by your local jurisdiction (which may be based on NFPA 96 but possibly stricter?) What type of cooking equipment do you have? What is on your menu and what are the cooking times? Last but not least, what is the design of your grease exhaust system?

At a very minimum, monthly cleaning needs to be done on solid-fuel cooking operations such as wood-fired pizza ovens. Quarterly cleaning needs to be done on high-volume cooking operations. Semi-annual cleaning needs to be done on moderate-volume cooking operations, and low-volume cooking operations can be cleaned annually.

The technicians at Mr. Hood Clean are experienced in assessing and determining the appropriate cleaning interval for your kitchen equipment. It is common for our technicians to determine that some equipment you own may need to be cleaned monthly, some cleaned quarterly, some cleaned every four months, some cleaned semi-annually, and some cleaned annually. It is important for you to work with an experienced restaurant hood cleaning company with highly trained technicians who can recognize when a piece of equipment is not cleaned often enough, or being cleaned more often than necessary.

Many restaurant owners and commercial kitchen facility managers find it cumbersome to keep track of which piece of kitchen equipment needs to be cleaned monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually, and when the next service appointment is due.

The good news is that Mr. Hood Clean utilizes a cloud-based system to automatically keep track of everything for you. We keep track of each piece of kitchen equipment you have, how often each piece of equipment needs to be cleaned, the exact condition on each piece of equipment with photos taken, any deficiencies or upcoming replacement the owner should be aware of, and detailed service records of exactly what was done when. At the request of the client, everything can be e-mailed to you with one click of a mouse. This advanced technology gives our clients the confidence in knowing that their kitchen systems are being serviced correctly and kept in top performance.

When you become a client of Mr. Hood Clean, our office will automatically give you a call to schedule service for the appropriate equipment at the appropriate service interval. You no longer have to keep track of which service is due when, or worry about fire code violations.
