The kitchen exhaust system in restaurants and other food-service businesses is responsible for removing the heat, smoke, grease, and airborne particles generated by cooking. Its effectiveness depends on how often it’s cleaned, as well as its components. The hood, filters, and fan must be clean in order for the system to work properly. If not, the restaurant is at risk for fire hazards and violations of local health and safety codes.
When a hood cleaning exhaust system isn’t cleaned regularly, the accumulation of grease and smoke particles may cause the fan to overheat or shut off altogether. This can create unpleasant odors in the kitchen and dining areas, which can affect the overall customer experience. A poorly maintained system also reduces the efficiency of the equipment, leading to a higher energy bill than is necessary.
