Put The Steam Guy to work for you! When you can’t see or don’t know – you need someone who does. Keeping your kitchen exhaust system clear of grease-laden combustibles is our main focus – and high-pressure steam does just that!
Certification of the Kitchen Exhaust System – inclusive of hoods, filters, ducts and roof fans
NFPA96 governs the frequency of cleaning enforced by your local AHJ (Fire, Health, Insurance etc.)
Accessibility of the components of the kitchen exhaust system is mandated through NFPA96 which requires the installation of:
Hinge kits
Your hinge kit should allow the full weight of the roof exhauster / fan when opened to completely expose the fan blades and the vertical duct in order for it to be thoroughly cleaned. A solid steel Super Hinge is also available for heavier and larger exhausters. (not shown here)
Grease containment
Keeping the accumulation of grease off the surface of your roof is a priority, to prevent it from becoming a grease sponge, damaging your roof and becoming a fire hazard. If your fan doesn’t have one, we can supply and install one, which we maintain when we come clean your system.
Access Doors
Where areas in the duct remain inaccessible – access needs to be created, and it must be Fire rated and watertight.
Bacteria and mold can easily hide where cleaners find it challenging to reach. Using steam will sterilize the whole area while killing these contaminants, therefore, becoming neutralized. This service can be arranged by calling the office.
