What service am I talking about? –Kitchen hood exhaust cleaning– Having your kitchen hood system properly cleaned and serviced according to the NFPA #96 standards is essential for
* Maintaining proper airflow in your kitchen
* Keeping the fire marshal off your back
* Staying compliant with local fire codes
* Providing a safe working and dining environment for your employees and patrons.
* Reducing the possibility of a devastating fire spreading through duct work and onto the roof.
Hood Cleaning (or hood vent cleaning) should be done by a “properly trained, qualified, and certified company” according to NFPA #96 guidelines 8-3.1. Some restaurant owners like to go with the lowest bid in an attempt to save money.
Usually what happens is the cleaning contractor will only clean what is easily seen or reached from the ground. This is NOT acceptable! The grease will collect and become an extreme fire danger. It will also restrict the flow of air and reduce the efficiency of your exhaust system, costing you money.
By the time you hire a reputable hood cleaning company, they are going to charge you more money due to the major build up of grease that has to be removed. So, my advice would be to hire a kitchen exhaust cleaning company that will clean your entire system from top to bottom the first time and every other time.
There is a list of restaurant exhaust hood cleaning companies that will clean your vent hood system from top to bottom every time at www.thegreasepolice.org
It will save you money in the long run. It will save you headaches from hassling with fire marshals, health inspectors and insurance companies. Check their work after they have cleaned, or ask for pictures to hold them accountable. Restaurant fires are serious business, and they are a very real threat if your kitchen exhaust system has not been cleaned properly.

Does it seem like your exhaust hood is not working properly? Is smoke staying in your kitchen? Are your chefs complaining because is is too hot in the kitchen?
Maybe it is because the kitchen lacks make up air. Make up air is the air needed to replace the air being pulled out of your restaurant kitchen by your exhaust fan. Without it your fan motor is overworked and you have poor kitchen air conditions.
 ideal kitchen exhaust system setup The system above has an exhaust fan pulling the air out of the kitchen at the same time the cooler is replacing it with fresh air. This set up not only allows air to be pulled out by the exhaust fan but actually helps PUSH the air out. The two fans (the cooler fan and exhaust fan) work together to produce the best condition for the kitchen air and the least strain on fan motors, keeping costly repairs to a minimum.
 inefficient kitchen exhaust system setup This second set up works but is inefficient. There is no air being pushed in to the kitchen, it is only drawn in by the fan, which makes your fan work twice as hard, and will not cool your kitchen the way it should.
 wrong kitchen exhaust system setup This third setup will is almost useless. No make up air being drawn in to the kitchen at all, and the fan working very hard to get any hot air out of the kitchen at all.
In order to have a cooler kitchen, you must have the same amount of air being pushed in by a swamp cooler as you have being pulled out by your exhaust fan. Once your restaurant kitchen set up this way, you will notice a much nicer environment to work in, and your chefs and kitchen staff will be much happier and more productive.

An important part of your regular restaurant exhaust hood system maintenance is the cleaning of your kitchen hood filters. If your filters are not kept clean then two things happen. The first thing is that your filters become laden with grease and this creates a fire hazard. In other words , if you have a fire on the cook line, the filters will likely catch fire and continue to burn sending fire up the ducts. The second thing that occurs is the filters become clogged with grease build-up. This causes the flow of air to become reduced. When this happens your fan uses more energy costing more money tom operate and degreasing the life expectancy of the motor. Additionally you are likely to have smoke problems in the kitchen because the air flow is reduced. The way to handle this is to inspect your filters daily and when they begin to build up a film of grease take them out and wash them. There are a few companies still available that will come to your location every few weeks and change them for you but this can get very expensive. Most restaurants have a dishwasher. If you have one then the easiest way to clean them is first spray them with a degreaser, let them soak for a little while then run them through the dishwasher. If you don’t have a dishwasher, just put them in the sink at night with a degreaser and fill the sink with hot water. Then when you come in in the morning, just rinse them off and put them back in the filter housing. How often should this be done? In some cases daily if your cooking makes a lot of smoke. If not, at least once per week will assure you of having clean filters and no airflow blockage. Never operate without your filters in place. They are an important part of your fire protection system, and they do remove a lot of the grease that would otherwise be deposited on the duct system and fan blades. If you are are burning anything solid for fuel (wood, charcoal, etc.) NFPA 96 recommends having spark arrestor filters installed. These filters are designed to stop red hot embers from going in to your kitchen exhaust system and starting a fire. Also check with your insurance company, they may offer discounts if you use spark arrestor filters on your wood burning exhaust systems.

These are photos taken of a restaurant kitchen exhaust hood system in Santa Monica, California. The company cleaning this kitchen exhaust system is certified by a kitchen exhaust cleaning association that claims its members are held to a higher standard than non members, and they also emphatically state that their members clean kitchen exhaust systems to bare metal from top to bottom every time.
These pictures prove that this is a lie.
Notice the areas on the vertical ducts leading to the fans that were missed.

The accumulation in the lateral grease ducts is proof that parts of these kitchen exhaust systems have been neglected for many years.

If this restaurant were to have a fire that spread in to these ducts, the grease would most likely catch fire, and could possible spread to the building endangering lives.
It is the responsibility of every kitchen exhaust cleaning association to be on top of their members to make sure that partial cleanings like the one in these pictures do not happen.
