Yes. The law states that kitchen grease exhaust cleaning must be performed on a regular basis, and the Fire Marshal, Health Inspector and your insurance company will be closely monitoring your compliance. The law isn’t set out to inconvenience you. Vent hood cleaning to remove kitchen grease prevents fire and improves air flow, leading to a safer and cleaner kitchen environment. As an added bonus, you can improve the life of your vent hoods and exhaust systems by engaging in regular cleaning and maintenance.
At Hood Builder, we recommend that incredibly busy kitchens engage in quarterly cleaning schedules, such as those operating 24-hours per day. For moderately busy kitchens, a thorough cleaning every six months should suffice. Low-volume kitchens can get away with annual vent hood cleanings, but for kitchens that primarily use wood or coal, monthly cleanings might be best.
Cleaning vent hoods and the ventilation systems they’re attached to is a tedious task that requires experience, training and specialized equipment. If you employ individuals who happen to be qualified and certified, that is an ideal scenario for passing vent hood inspections and getting the most efficiency and safety from your vent hood performance.
On the other hand, if you don’t employ anyone who is qualified and certified to clean kitchen ventilation systems, it pays to hire a professional team like Hood Builder to do the work for you.

The time our team takes to clean your exhaust system depends on the condition of the system in question.
