Is kitchen exhaust cleaning required by fire code?
+
Yes. NFPA 96 and Florida Fire Prevention Code require commercial kitchens to have exhaust systems cleaned on a regular schedule based on cooking volume. High-volume restaurants (24-hour operations, charbroiling, wok cooking) need quarterly cleaning. Moderate-volume restaurants need semi-annual cleaning. Low-volume operations like churches or seasonal kitchens need annual cleaning. Failure to comply can result in fines, insurance claim denials, or forced closure by fire marshals.
How often do restaurants need duct cleaning?
+
NFPA 96 sets the minimum schedule: quarterly for high-volume cooking (solid fuel, charbroiling, 24-hour operations, wok cooking), semi-annually for moderate-volume full-menu restaurants and fast food, and annually for low-volume operations. In Miami's year-round heat and humidity, grease builds up faster than in cooler climates, so many restaurants benefit from more frequent cleaning than the minimum.
Do you clean after restaurant hours?
+
Yes. We schedule all restaurant duct cleaning during off-hours, typically overnight between closing and opening. Our crews work after midnight and finish before your morning prep staff arrives. We protect all kitchen equipment with plastic sheeting, contain the work area, and leave the kitchen ready to operate. Zero disruption to your business.
Can dirty ducts cause a restaurant fire?
+
Absolutely. Grease duct fires are one of the leading causes of restaurant fires in the United States. Grease accumulates inside kitchen exhaust ducts, hoods, and fans. A single spark from a stovetop, charbroiler, or flambeing can ignite the grease lining inside the duct. The fire travels through the duct system rapidly, often reaching the rooftop. Regular professional cleaning removes grease buildup and is the single most effective way to prevent kitchen duct fires.
Do you provide documentation for health and fire inspectors?
+
Yes. After every job, we provide a detailed cleaning report with before-and-after photos, a compliance certificate, and documentation of all work performed. This paperwork satisfies Miami-Dade and Broward fire inspector requirements. We keep copies on file so you can request them anytime for inspections, insurance audits, or landlord requirements.
Do you clean rooftop exhaust fans?
+
Yes. Rooftop exhaust fans are part of every restaurant duct cleaning job. We clean the fan housing, blades, grease cups, and drain lines. We also inspect belts, bearings, and motor condition. Grease-clogged exhaust fans reduce airflow, create fire hazards, and burn out motors prematurely. Our technicians access rooftops safely with proper equipment and leave no mess.
Can you service multiple restaurant locations?
+
Yes. We service restaurant groups and franchise owners across Miami-Dade and Broward County. We coordinate cleaning schedules across all your locations, provide centralized billing and reporting, and maintain compliance records for each property. Many multi-location owners prefer one trusted vendor for consistency and accountability.

Do you clean food truck HVAC systems?
+
Yes. Food trucks rely on compact HVAC systems that get dirtier faster due to confined cooking spaces and constant outdoor operation. We clean food truck HVAC ducts, filters, and vents to improve air quality inside the truck, reduce equipment strain, and help pass health inspections. We schedule food truck cleanings at your commissary or parking location.
