Dirty Hoods Can Shut Your Kitchen Down — Here’s Why It Matters
Operating a busy kitchen is tough. But when your exhaust hood gets dirty, you face real risks. These are the top issues we help restaurant owners avoid with regular exhaust hood service:
Risk of Fire
Hood grease can build up quickly. If it gets too thick, it can catch fire easily that shuts down your business.
Failed Health Inspections
Greasy hoods are a big red flag for inspectors. If they’re not clean, you could be forced to close until they’re cleaned.
Unpleasant Odors
Greasy hoods can make your kitchen smell bad. These smells can make the kitchen unpleasant.
Hard-to-Breathe Kitchens
A clogged hood won’t work like it should. This makes your kitchen uncomfortable, and tough on your staff.
Equipment Damage
When grease clogs the system, it puts stress on your equipment. Over time, this can damage your equipment.
Lost Business
Dirty kitchens hurt your reputation. A bad experience means fewer repeat visits and bad online reviews.
