Why sign up for our kitchen exhaust cleaning services

The exhaust system is a key component of your commercial kitchen because it safely eliminates vaporized grease, which is a natural byproduct of cooking, from the air of your commercial kitchen. It also removes hot air and odors. If you don’t keep your exhaust system clean and in proper working order, your commercial kitchen will not be up to code, plus a flash fire could occur. That would be a dangerous situation and a huge interruption to your business when the fire department must be called and repairs must be made. But with kitchen exhaust cleaning services from Flue Steam you won’t have to worry about your exhaust system again.

Hand scraping and steam cleaning in Norwalk, CA

We provide both hand scraping and steam cleaning services for commercial kitchen exhaust systems. Hand scraping involves simple, effective cleaning of all accessible grease deposits. We recommend signing up for hand scraping services once a month. Steam cleaning involves the use of hot, high-pressure water to thoroughly remove grease from every part of your exhaust system. We recommend supplementing hand scraping with steam cleaning services 2-4 times per year.

After each cleaning, we’ll provide a “Certificate of Performance” sticker that will keep code inspectors satisfied and may even save you money on your insurance bills. Rest assured that our licensed technicians conduct the most thorough cleanings possible at every visit.

All about our commercial kitchen exhaust system cleaning services

We recommend signing up for monthly hand scraping services with 2-4 supplemental steam cleanings per year.

Utilizing hot, high-pressure water to remove grease, it’s the perfect supplemental way to make sure every inch of your exhaust system is squeaky clean.

This ensures your exhaust fan draws properly so you’re entire system will stay cleaner longer.

In commercial kitchens, your exhaust fan is an essential part of your exhaust system. It removes hot air and odors from your kitchen, plus it safely eliminates vaporized grease, which is a natural byproduct of cooking. If your exhaust fan isn’t cleaned regularly and in proper working condition at all times, it won’t draw properly, so it won’t be able to do its job well. As a result, grease will quickly built up in your commercial kitchen’s exhaust system and your risk of a flash fire within your exhaust ducts will increase dramatically. A flash fire could result in injuries to your staff, serious damage to your kitchen, and a huge interruption to the flow of your business. Avoid flash fires by always making sure your exhaust fan is able to draw properly.

But how?

If you manage or otherwise work in a commercial kitchen, your mind is always running a thousand miles a minute. There are always so many important tasks that need to be handled right away. So how are you going to fit checking and maintaining your exhaust fan into your already jam-packed schedule? Well… you aren’t! Just enlist the expertise of Flue Steam and you’ll never have to worry about your exhaust fan drawing properly again. We provide regular cleaning services for your complete commercial kitchen exhaust system. Our cleaning services are thorough, fire-code-compliant, and affordable. We recommend signing up for hand scraping and steam cleaning services for your commercial kitchen exhaust system.
