What should restaurants check before extraction hood cleaning?

Restaurants often have daily grease load. A good assessment looks at hood, filters, duct, fan context, accessibility and planning.

Restaurant extraction system as a practical hood cleaning image.

Key takeaways

Restaurant cleaning often includes more than the visible hood.
Photos before the quote make scope and planning clearer.
Planning should fit kitchen service and access.

Which components matter?

Restaurant extraction often involves the hood, filter area, duct opening, grease duct and fan context. The exact scope should be clear before work starts.

  • Extraction hood and edges
  • Filters and frames
  • Duct opening
  • Accessible grease duct
  • Motor/fan or rooftop unit
  • Before and after photos

Why photos help

Photos show contamination, access and technical context. This makes the quote more specific and reduces assumptions.

Planning around service

Restaurants must often plan around preparation, service and cleaning windows. Work outside busy kitchen times can be discussed.

Frequently asked questions

Can I clean only the visible hood?

That can be discussed as a limited scope, but it does not provide a full picture of the duct or fan context.

Which photos should I send?

Send photos of the hood, filters, duct opening, motor/fan and accessibility where safely visible.
