Rooftop exhaust fans

Exhaust Fan Cleaning

Cleaning of commercial kitchen exhaust fans and housings so grease does not overload fan surfaces that move air out of the kitchen.

What this service covers

Commercial exhaust fans pull grease-laden air through the hood and duct system to the roof. Fan blades and housings collect grease over time and need periodic cleaning as part of kitchen exhaust maintenance. This service focuses on cleaning—not mechanical repair or motor replacement.

Why it matters

A grease-loaded fan has to move air through a dirtier assembly. Keeping blades and housings cleaner supports steadier exhaust performance at the hood and reduces the chance that heavy buildup is left sitting on rooftop equipment between full-system cleanings.
