Grease Duct Cleaning

What this service covers

Commercial kitchen grease duct cleaning addresses the duct runs that connect the hood system to the exhaust fan. Grease can collect inside horizontal and vertical kitchen exhaust ductwork where it is easy to overlook. We clean accessible grease duct sections included in the work order using the access available on your system.

Why it matters

Kitchen grease ducts are part of the fire-protection conversation for commercial cooking because grease can accumulate out of sight between the hood and the fan. Keeping those passages cleaner is a core maintenance step for restaurants and other foodservice operations—not the same service as residential HVAC duct cleaning.

Who it is for

• Restaurant exhaust systems from hood to rooftop
• Kitchens with long vertical risers or multi-run grease ducts
• Facilities planning a deeper commercial exhaust cleaning

• Addresses grease inside vertical and horizontal kitchen exhaust ducts in scope
• Supports a cleaner path from hood to fan
• Works together with hood, filter, and fan cleaning
• Can include photo documentation when that is part of the job

Signs it may be time to schedule

These are practical operational cues—not a code diagnosis or inspection result.

• Heavy grease at access points or terminations
• Long intervals since the last grease duct cleaning
• Smoke or odor issues tied to the exhaust path
• Upcoming exhaust-system maintenance or third-party review
