Jasvid Hood Cleaning is a necessary and important part of ensuring a kitchen is safe to work in. It includes cleaning the metal canopy that is mounted above your cooking appliances that vents out, filters or captures cooking grease. It is usually coated with grease and dirt after use and can create a fire hazard if not cleaned regularly.
NFPA 96 guidelines state that the majority of commercial kitchens should have their hoods cleaned on a quarterly basis. For high volume cooking, such as 24-hour or charbroiling operations, this should occur monthly. For lower volume cooking, such as schools and churches, a semi-annual cleaning may be sufficient.
The Link Between Hood Cleaning and Employee Health
Professional hood cleaners are trained to follow strict guidelines when cleaning your exhaust system and are familiar with all the nooks and crannies in your kitchen exhaust ducting. They use a combination of hot power washing and hand scraping to clean your entire kitchen exhaust system from the rooftop fan down to the cooktop.
They start by taping over all electrical outlets and covering anything in the immediate vicinity of your hood with sheets or plastic to protect them from grease spray back and chemical washing during the process. Next, they remove the filters for separate cleaning and create a funnel system to channel grease water into large trash cans for proper disposal.
Next, a technician uses a brush or vacuum to clear out any blockages in the ductwork. Lastly, they inspect the system for any damage or wear that may need to be repaired before reassembling it. Most hood cleaning companies also polish the hoods to make them easier to clean in the future and apply a certification sticker that shows fire inspectors, health department officials and your insurance agent that your kitchen is up to code.
