DUCTWORK
CLEANING

A buildup of oil, fat, grease, soot, dust, and debris in kitchen exhaust systems is a significant health and fire hazard. Over time, these materials accumulate in hoods, ducts, and filters, restricting airflow and reducing the efficiency of the extractor system. This restricted airflow not only impedes the proper ventilation of the kitchen, but also increases the risk of fire due to the flammability of grease and fat deposits.

 

In addition, this buildup can drop back down onto appliances, surfaces, and even food, leading to contamination and the potential spread of bacteria. Regular cleaning and maintenance of the ducting and exhaust system are essential to ensure optimal airflow, prevent health hazards, reduce fire risks, and maintain the efficiency of the system. A clean exhaust system also helps improve the air quality within the kitchen, ensuring a safer and healthier working environment for all staff.
