Dirty Hoods Can Shut Your Kitchen Down — Here’s Why It Matters
Running a kitchen is already hard enough. But when your exhaust hood gets dirty, problems start stacking up. These are the top issues we help commercial kitchens avoid with regular exhaust hood service:
Fire Hazards
Hood grease can build up quickly. If it gets too thick, one spark could start a fire that puts your staff at risk.
Health Code Violations
Greasy hoods are a big red flag for inspectors. If they’re not clean, you could face penalties until they’re cleaned.
Greasy Smells
Grease and smoke trapped in the hood cause strong smells. These smells can push customers away.
Hard-to-Breathe Kitchens
A clogged hood can’t pull out smoke and heat. This makes your kitchen hotter, and tough on your staff.
Broken Fans and Filters
When grease clogs the system, it puts stress on your equipment. Over time, this can lead to costly repairs.
Lost Business
Dirty kitchens hurt your reputation. A bad experience means fewer repeat visits and poor word of mouth.
