Monthly
If your commercial kitchen in Tampa uses solid fuel while cooking (wood, charcoal, etc.), the NFPA recommends monthly exhaust hood cleaning.
EXHAUST HOOD CLEANING • TAMPA, FL
When a kitchen needs more than a cosmetic wipe-down, our Tampa hood cleaners handle the real grease load. We clean the hood, document the condition, and help commercial kitchens stay safer, cleaner, and easier to defend during inspections.
Exhaust hood cleaning is one of the easiest services to postpone and one of the dumbest to ignore. Tampa commercial kitchens need professional hood cleaning service before grease buildup turns into inspection trouble, airflow issues, fire risk, or rooftop mess.
Relying on your workers in Tampa to do a thorough job cleaning the exhaust system is not a good idea. They may be doing the best job they can, but they don't have the training and equipment we have to get into the nooks and crannies of the exhaust system to remove the grease.
Most of them don't even think of going up on the roof to see if there is grease build-up in the turbine. That build-up could cause the grease to spill over onto the roof and because grease is acidic, it can start to damage the roof in as little as two weeks.
The NFPA has recommendations on how often you should have your hood cleaned. The recommendations are based on how often the commercial kitchen is used and what type of fuel is used while cooking.
If your commercial kitchen in Tampa uses solid fuel while cooking (wood, charcoal, etc.), the NFPA recommends monthly exhaust hood cleaning.
If your restaurant in Tampa is high-volume like a 24-hour facility, wok cooking, or charbroiling, quarterly cleaning is recommended.
If your kitchen in Tampa does a moderate volume of cooking or uses very little grease, semi-annual cleaning is sufficient.
If your commercial kitchen does a very low volume of cooking like a seasonal business, day camp, or church, annual cleaning is recommended.
As you are aware, the exhaust system in a commercial kitchen is designed to filter out grease, smoke, and other particles that are floating in the air. The grease can easily build up in the exhaust system and if not cleaned regularly, can cause a fire hazard.
We take before pictures top to bottom as we do our initial assessment of your exhaust system.
We scrape and pressure wash all accessible areas of the hood, ducts, and fan to remove built-up grease.
If there are any repairs that need to be done, we will inform you and provide an estimate.
We take after photos and place a dated service sticker on your hood showing the next recommended cleaning date.
Don't wait for a health inspection or fire marshal visit to find out your hood needs cleaning. Get a straight answer on scope, timing, and the fastest way to get the system back into better shape.
