Every commercial kitchen that cooks with grease is required to have its exhaust system cleaned regularly by a qualified company. NFPA 96, the fire code standard for commercial kitchen exhaust systems, says the entire system must be cleaned — not just the parts you can see.
Fire inspectors check for it. Insurance carriers ask for proof of it after a claim. Health inspectors notice when it’s missed. A certified cleaning from Five Star Hood and Detail Inc gives you that proof in writing, every time.
Eliminates warning citations and imminent fire safety stop-work notices. We clean to NFPA 96 Table 11.4 bare-metal criteria, recognized by all Florida fire marshals.
Protect your commercial property coverage. Insurance adjusters immediately subpoena documented cleanings after duct or flare fires before paying restaurant claims.
Sanitary stainless steel degreasing prevents dripping grease condensate onto hot cooktops, prep surfaces, and active line equipment during peak lunch and dinner rushes.
We clean your exhaust system from the cooktop to the rooftop. Grease that’s left anywhere in the system is still a fire risk, so we don’t skip anything.
We degrease the hood interior and exterior, clean or soak the baffle filters and clear the grease gutters and cups that catch runoff.
The plenum behind the filters and the ductwork running to the roof hold the heaviest grease. We scrape and steam-clean them down to bare metal, as NFPA 96 requires.
We clean the fan housing, blades and motor, then check bearings and belts so the fan keeps pulling smoke and heat out of your kitchen.
We clean around the fire suppression linkage without disturbing it, polish exposed stainless steel and clean up the work area before we leave.
Engineered to ensure complete fire safety with zero disruption to your morning prep or night shifts.
We cover your cooking equipment, counters and floors before any chemicals come out.
We apply EPA-registered degreasers to break down grease throughout the hood, plenum and ducts.
Hot-water steam pressure washing and hand scraping take every surface down to bare metal.
We check the fan, filters and gutters, then polish exposed stainless steel.
We apply your dated service sticker and send your Certificate of Completion with before-and-after photos.
Your certification is your proof that the system was cleaned to code. After every job you receive:
