Frequently Asked Questions About Commercial Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning
How Often Should a Commercial Kitchen Exhaust System Be Cleaned Under NFPA 96?
According to NFPA 96 standards, commercial kitchens should have their exhaust systems cleaned regularly to prevent grease buildup and reduce fire risks. The frequency depends on your operation type:
- Monthly for Solid-Fuel Cooking Operations
- Quarterly for High-Volume Restaurants and Kitchens
- Semi-annually for Standard Commercial Cooking Operations
- Annually for Low-Volume or Seasonal Businesses Such As Churches or Senior Centers
At Equi Vac LLC, we provide custom cleaning schedules to keep your facility safe and compliant.
Why Is Professional Hood Cleaning Important for Fire Safety and Compliance?
Professional kitchen hood cleaning services go beyond surface cleaning. By removing grease and buildup from exhaust fans, ducts, filters, and hoods, we:
- Prevent Dangerous Kitchen Fires
- Improve Air Quality for Employees and Customers
- Reduce Energy Costs by Improving Equipment Efficiency
- Extend the Life of Your Exhaust System
Restaurants in Michigan, Ohio, and Illinois trust Equi Vac LLC to protect their businesses through certified, NFPA-compliant cleaning.
Can My Staff Clean the Restaurant Kitchen Hood System Themselves?
While staff may handle light surface cleaning, only a certified hood cleaning company can properly degrease and inspect the full exhaust system. Attempting a do-it-yourself approach is unsafe and may leave hazardous grease deposits hidden in ducts and fans. Hiring Equi Vac LLC ensures your system is thoroughly cleaned, compliant with NFPA 96, and safe for daily operation.
What Are the Warning Signs That My Exhaust System Needs Professional Cleaning?
Some common signs your system needs exhaust maintenance or hood cleaning include:
- Visible Grease Buildup on Hoods, Fans, or Walls
- Strong Lingering Odors in the Kitchen
- Reduced Airflow or Noisy Exhaust Fans
- Higher-Than-Usual Energy Bills
- Exhaust Fans Struggling or Motors Overheating
If you notice any of these issues, schedule a service with Equi Vac LLC to avoid costly breakdowns and maintain a safe kitchen.
