Benefits of Pronto MS Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning Services

Our professional kitchen exhaust cleaning services provide numerous benefits, including compliance with fire and safety codes, improved air quality, reduced energy costs, and a longer lifespan of the exhaust system. Our services can also help prevent costly repairs and downtime, improve the overall cleanliness of your kitchen, and enhance the safety of your employees and customers.
Are you looking for ways to keep more money in your business while reducing energy consumption? One often overlooked area that can contribute to significant energy savings is your exhaust fan. When grease accumulates around the exhaust fan, it can lead to blade compaction, resulting in decreased efficiency and higher energy costs. At Pronto MS, we specialize in providing professional kitchen exhaust cleaning services that not only enhance safety but also maximize energy savings, ultimately boosting your bottom line.

Thorough fan cleaning:

Our experienced technicians meticulously clean and degrease every part of your exhaust fan, ensuring that the blades are free from grease and other contaminants. This process restores optimal airflow and allows the fan to operate at peak efficiency.

Duct cleaning:

In addition to cleaning the exhaust fan, we also address the cleanliness of the ductwork. By removing grease and debris from the ducts, we minimize airflow restrictions and further enhance energy efficiency.

Regular maintenance schedules:

We can establish a customized maintenance schedule tailored to your business’s needs. By adhering to a regular cleaning routine, you can maintain optimal energy efficiency and prevent excessive buildup of grease.

Importance of Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning

Kitchen exhaust systems play a crucial role in maintaining a healthy and safe working environment in commercial kitchens. A dirty exhaust system can lead to a buildup of grease, dirt, and other contaminants, which can pose serious health hazards to employees and customers, as well as create a fire hazard. Regular cleaning of the kitchen exhaust system can prevent these hazards and help maintain the efficiency of the systems.

Essential Accessories for NFPA 96 Compliance

A compliant grease system isn’t just about cleaning—it’s about having the right components in place to allow for a thorough cleaning and to prevent future hazards. We not only clean your system, but also specialize in the installation and maintenance of these critical accessories:

Access Panels

NFPA 96 mandates access panels every 12 feet and at every change in duct direction. We install sturdy, sealed access doors that allow our technicians to reach and clean every inch of your ductwork, a crucial step that many cleaning services skip.

Hinge Kits

Your rooftop exhaust fan is heavy and difficult to move. A properly installed hinge kit allows us to safely tilt the fan back for a complete cleaning of the fan and the duct opening, preventing dangerous grease buildup that can’t be reached otherwise.

Grease Containment Systems

We install and maintain grease containment systems on your rooftop to catch any runoff from the exhaust fan, preventing roof damage, environmental contamination, and potential slip-and-fall hazards.

FAQ's

A: The frequency depends on your cooking volume and type. We can help you determine the ideal cleaning schedule based on NFPA 96 guidelines.

A: While your staff can clean the accessible parts of the hood, a full "hood-to-rooftop" cleaning requires professional equipment and expertise to reach all parts of the system, including the inaccessible ductwork and fan.

A: Ignoring your system can lead to a dangerous buildup of flammable grease, reduced airflow, higher energy bills, and a higher risk of a devastating fire.

A: A reputable cleaning service will provide you with a detailed post-service report, including before-and-after photos of all cleaned components and a certification sticker for your records.

Understanding NFPA 96 Requirements for Restaurant Owners

As a restaurant owner, understanding NFPA 96 is not optional—it’s your responsibility. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 96 is the fire prevention code for commercial cooking operations. It provides the legal framework for the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of your kitchen exhaust system.

What Does NFPA 96 Require?

  • Frequent Cleaning: The code mandates a specific cleaning schedule based on your cooking volume. High-volume, solid-fuel operations (like wood or charcoal grills) may require monthly cleaning, while lighter operations might only need a cleaning every six months.

  • Accessibility: Every part of the system—from the hood to the rooftop fan—must be accessible for inspection and cleaning. This is why access panels and hinge kits are non-negotiable for compliance.

  • Professional Certification: NFPA 96 requires that all cleaning and maintenance be performed by trained, qualified, and certified professionals.

Failure to comply can lead to failed fire inspections, hefty fines, a voided insurance policy, or even the closure of your business.
