Exhaust Hood Cleaning
Keep Your Kitchen Safe and Healthy!
Regular maintenance of a grease hood is an important part of defense against kitchen fires.
An out of control fire threatens lives and structures.
The law requires that safety measures are implemented and fire and buildings codes are complied with.
Grease is one of the most dangerous fire hazards in a kitchen because of how quickly it can build up from a day's use and how flammable it is if a fire were to break out. Columbia Fire Protection has fully trained technicians that efficiently clean grease from the hood, vents, globes and fan blades to NFPA 96 standards to provide a safer, cleaner, cooler, and faster way to evacuate grease and smoke from your kitchen.
Investing in professional hood cleaning services is not only important for the safety of your kitchen, regular kitchen exhaust system cleaning is required by your insurance company. Poor maintenance of your grease exhaust system and kitchen equipment that result in violations of NFPA safety codes can contribute to the possibility having insurance claims denied.
Columbia Fire Protection is licensed, insured and bonded. We will begin by thoroughly inspecting your kitchen hood, exhaust fan, and ducts to identify all the areas that require attention.
Degreasing: Our team will then use a specialized degreaser to remove any grease buildup from your kitchen hood, exhaust fan, and ducts.
Scraping: We will carefully scrape away any remaining grease buildup to ensure that all surfaces are thoroughly cleaned.
Rinsing: After the scraping process, we will rinse the cleaned surfaces with hot water to remove any residue and ensure that the surfaces are free from grease.
Final Inspection: Once the cleaning process is complete, we will perform a final inspection to ensure that all surfaces are clean and polished and free from hazardous grease.
