Are You Playing With Fire When It Comes To Your

Kitchen Exhaust System?

Eliminate the risk of fires with Certified, Qualified and Trained Kitchen Exhaust Hood Cleaning service from A CleanSlate.

Your first line of defense is to have your exhaust system free of greasy build-up.  This means keeping the restaurant hoods, ducts and exhaust fans in your Commercial kitchen free from obstruction with a professional cleaning.

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 96 is the definitive standard on fire protection for all aspects of commercial cooking operations. Requirements cover cooking equipment, kitchen hood cleaning, grease removal devices, exhaust duct systems, fans, fire suppression systems, and clearance to combustibles.

Kitchen hood cleaning, ducts, and motors produce grease during cooking that accumulates. This accumulation is the cause for most kitchen fires which can lead to significant downtime for your investment.

Here at A CleanSlate we provide our clients with before and after pictures of their systems to ensure that all accessible areas were cleaned to NFPA required specifications. 

An After Service Follow-up Report will be provided with documentation of date of service and services provided.  A CleanSlate will inform the client in writing of any deficiencies within the system and recommendations for compliance of NFPA standards.  This form is a report on the access and cleanability of exhaust system. It is meant to assist in making the system more fire safe and improve our service.  We will place a Cleaning Certificate of Performance on or near the kitchen exhaust hood with the scheduled date of your next service.

 

   11.3  Inspection of Exhaust Systems
