Myth vs Fact: Hood cleaning frequency.

Myth: 'I only need to clean my hood once a year.'

Fact: NFPA 96 sets cleaning frequency by cooking volume, not by calendar date. A 24-hour high-volume kitchen needs monthly service.

A moderate-volume sit-down restaurant needs quarterly. A low-volume kitchen might get away with semi-annually.

'Once a year' is a violation for almost every commercial kitchen in Houston.

Summer prep starts now.

Houston summer is coming. Higher temperatures mean more cooking volume, more grease production, and faster buildup in your exhaust system. If your last hood cleaning was more than 90 days ago, your kitchen is already behind. A quick assessment tells you exactly where you stand. We handle the hood. You handle the kitchen.

Here's something most restaurant owners don't know: grease buildup in your exhaust system isn't just about how often you cook — it's also about temperature.

Houston summers push kitchen heat to extremes, which accelerates grease vaporization and deposits buildup in your hood and ductwork up to 40% faster than cooler months.

Spring is the smart time to schedule your KEC service — before the heat turns your exhaust system into a fire hazard.

Does your restaurant know its hood cleaning schedule?

NFPA 96 sets the minimum — and Houston Fire Dept. enforces it.

BBQ & wood-fire kitchens need service every single month. Don't wait for an inspection to find out you're overdue. Save this and tag your kitchen manager.

5 Signs Your Kitchen Exhaust System Needs Cleaning - Now:

1️⃣ Visible grease accumulation on hood filters
2️⃣ Smoke or heat not clearing properly during service
3️⃣ Grease dripping onto cooking equipment or surfaces
4️⃣ A failed fire or health inspection within the past year

Six months of grease accumulation can quietly increase fire risk, restrict airflow, and put your kitchen out of compliance.

This is the difference between buildup — and a properly cleaned, NFPA-standard system.

Whether you need KEC every 3 months or 6 months will depend on how much you're cooking.
