Commercial kitchen fires often start where grease is allowed to build up unnoticed. Inside hoods, ducts, and exhaust fans, grease becomes highly flammable and can ignite quickly under high cooking temperatures.
Regular hood and duct cleaning removes this hidden fuel before it becomes a serious fire hazard. While surfaces may look clean, grease often accumulates deep inside vertical and horizontal ductwork where it cannot be seen during daily operations.
NFPA 96 standards require routine inspection and cleaning of commercial kitchen exhaust systems to reduce fire risk. Ignoring these requirements not only increases the chance of fire but can also lead to failed inspections, insurance issues, and costly shutdowns.
Professional exhaust cleaning ensures grease is removed safely and thoroughly, restoring proper airflow and protecting your kitchen, staff, and customers.
