How often should restaurant hoods be cleaned?
NFPA-96 requires quarterly to semi-annual cleaning depending on cooking volume. High-volume kitchens (24hr, charbroiling) require monthly service.
Do you provide fire marshal documentation?
Yes. Every service includes a full photo report with NFPA-96 compliance stickers, grease depth measurements, and a certificate of service.
Can you clean during off-hours?
Absolutely. Most restaurant clients schedule overnight cleaning between 11 PM and 5 AM to avoid operational disruption.
