Hood Cleaning Services
Professional Kitchen Hood Cleaning
IKECA-certified exhaust cleaning that keeps your kitchen safe, compliant, and running at peak performance.
Why Hood Cleaning Matters
Grease buildup in your kitchen exhaust system is one of the leading causes of commercial kitchen fires. Regular, professional hood cleaning is not just a best practice — it's required by the NFPA 96 standard and most local fire codes.
Columbia Fire Protection uses industrial-strength hot pressure washing equipment and FDA-approved degreasers to thoroughly clean your hood, filters, ductwork, and exhaust fan — removing grease from every surface and keeping your kitchen safe.
What's Included
Hood & Filters
Complete degreasing of the hood canopy, baffles, and grease filters using hot pressure washing and FDA-approved degreasers.
Ductwork Cleaning
Thorough cleaning of all accessible ductwork from the hood to the rooftop exhaust fan, removing accumulated grease deposits.
Exhaust Fan
Cleaning of the rooftop exhaust fan housing, blades, and grease containment to ensure proper airflow and fire safety.
Grease Containment
Inspection and cleaning of grease traps and containment systems to prevent overflow and environmental hazards.
Before & After Report
Photographic documentation and a detailed service report provided after every cleaning for your compliance records.
Tegris Reporting
Digital compliance reporting through Tegris to keep your business records current with local fire authority requirements.
Recommended Cleaning Frequency
The NFPA 96 standard specifies cleaning frequency based on the volume and type of cooking in your kitchen. Columbia Fire Protection will assess your operation and recommend the right schedule.
