Depending on what kind of food your restaurant serves is going to make a difference on how often you need your hood and exhaust cleaned. Different types of food can even create different types of grease build up or consistency. High grease volume restaurants that serve hamburgers and French fries daily will need to have its hood cleaned more often than a low grease volume bistro type of kitchen that serves soups and salads. Places that stay open for more than the average restaurant will also need a more frequent cleaning due to heavier traffic and kitchen hood and exhaust use. The NFPA recommends kitchens that use char-broiling methods or have a brick oven or wood fired stove will need its exhaust and hood system cleaned up to every 30 days to stay on top of build up that can lead to high risk fire hazard. Most average restaurants, cafeterias and hotel kitchens need to be serviced every 3 to 4 months. Places that use oils and woks like an Asian buffet or  greasy cuisine need to be cleaned at least every month to stay on top of the grease build up. Contact us if you are unsure of how often your commercial kitchen should be cleaned due to the type of food you serve!

Here at Powerwash Pros, we ALWAYS clean and inspect your kitchen hood and exhaust system thoroughly to ensure a proper kitchen hood & exhaust cleaning by the standards of the National Fire Protection Association. Unlike other "corporate" or "chain" Hood Cleaning Companies, we won't be leaving a mess in your kitchen EVER. Our technique is clean and easy as we cover everything around the hood areas with specialized plastic and are sure to clean up and dispose of everything when we finish. If you have some heavier grease that has accumulated on your hoods we scrape that off with special scrapers that won’t scratch your hood and duct surfaces. We use strong chemicals that are food safe to break down the grease. This is applied with a mist like sprayer so we can get in the hard to reach areas and corners. The chemicals are then allowed to sit for awhile so even the toughest grease can be broken down and washed away. This should only be applied with professional expertise. We also check the roof and pre-treat the fan with chemical for the best results. We power wash your hoods and exhausts from top to bottom. All the grease and water will be disposed of as it flows down the sheeting into our set up. Lastly, our final step is to shine up your hoods surface. They will look brand new and help to maintain future build up! Once we clean up and are complete, we always leave behind a certification sticker with our name, number and the date your hood was cleaned and when your next cleaning should be. This helps the health inspector, fire marshall, and insurance agency to know that you are being responsible and having your commercial kitchen cleaned by professional hood cleaners regularly. As Far as scheduling goes, we mostly clean hoods and kitchens at night. This means you won’t have to open or close early and mess your schedule up to have your hoods cleaned. Having a hood cleaning crew in your kitchen while you try to prepare food for customers is difficult, so we can service your kitchen when it works best for your kitchen routine.
