Jasvid Hood Cleaning is a necessary part of restaurant exhaust system maintenance. It helps to reduce the risk of grease fires and ensures a safe and healthy environment for employees. However, it can be time consuming and labor-intensive. A regular schedule of hood cleaning is the best way to prevent greasy buildup and keep your kitchen up to code.

The NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) standard 96 dictates that commercial cooking facilities should clean their vent hoods, fans, and ductwork on a regular basis. A greasy build-up of grease inside these systems is a common cause of fires that can destroy equipment and put employees at risk.

How Often Should You Get Your Kitchen Hood Cleaned?

A professional hood cleaning service follows a thorough process to ensure your vent hood, fans, and ductwork are cleaned down to the metal. First, technicians shut off the power to the hood and disconnect the fan motor. They then remove the baffle filters from the hood and set them aside for cleaning. They also use plastic bags to funnel grease and water sprayed by the pressure washer to avoid leaving any residue behind.

Next, hood cleaning technicians scrape off major grease buildup manually and with tools. They then spray the hood with hot water from a power washer to loosen and wash away grease. They then rinse the hood, wipe it down, and test the fans for proper operation.

Lastly, technicians inspect the ductwork for foreign objects and blockages that can interfere with airflow. They also check for cracks, holes, and loose connections that could lead to contaminants entering or leaving the ductwork. They can repair any damage or leaks before reassembling the ductwork. Before they leave, the technician applies a sticker required by law to the hood to show it was recently cleaned. This allows customers, health inspectors, and fire officials to easily identify when the hood was last cleaned.
