Our core service: a complete commercial kitchen exhaust system cleaning performed to NFPA 96 standard. Every component is cleaned to bare metal, the hood, grease filters, plenum, grease trough, ventilation ductwork, and rooftop exhaust fan. Access doors are serviced and stamped, grease collection trays are emptied and reinstalled, and hood exteriors and back splashes are shined on completion. You are left with a certification sticker on every hood system serviced and an After Service Report for your records.

In San Mateo County, the Central County Fire Department expects this handled to NFPA 96 standard, and that is exactly what we deliver in Burlingame, with dated proof and a schedule that works around your kitchen, not against it.

Hood & Exhaust Cleaning and fire-code compliance in Burlingame

the Central County Fire Department enforces NFPA 96 across Burlingame, and for good reason: grease left in the plenum, duct, and rooftop fan is the leading cause of commercial kitchen fires in San Mateo County. Treating hood & exhaust cleaning as a real, documented service rather than a quick wipe is what separates a compliant Burlingame kitchen from a liability. We clean and service to bare metal and leave you with dated proof, the record your inspector wants to see and the record your insurer will ask for if anything ever goes wrong.

There is no single right interval. The code ties your Burlingame inspection schedule to how much grease your kitchen produces, and requires a cleaning whenever an inspection finds buildup:

Solid fuel

wood, charcoal, or other solid-fuel cooking

Monthly

High-volume

charbroiling, wok, 24-hour kitchens

Quarterly

Moderate-volume

most sit-down and full-service restaurants

Semi-annual

Low-volume

churches, seasonal kitchens, day camps, senior centers

Annual

FAQ

Kitchen Exhaust & Vent Cleaning in Burlingame, FAQ

Do you offer hood & exhaust cleaning in Burlingame?

Yes. Burlingame is part of our Northern California service area, and hood & exhaust cleaning is one of our core services here. Every component of your exhaust system cleaned to bare metal, hood to rooftop fan, to NFPA 96 standard. Every job is done to NFPA 96 standard and documented with dated before and after photos, so you have proof for the Central County Fire Department and your insurance carrier. Whether you run a single location in Burlingame or several across San Mateo County, we handle the work on a schedule built around your kitchen. Call or text us and we will give you a straight answer on timing and price, no runaround.

How often do Burlingame kitchens need hood & exhaust cleaning?

It comes down to how hard your kitchen cooks. NFPA 96 sets a minimum inspection schedule by cook type: solid-fuel and high-volume kitchens (wood or charcoal, charbroiling, wok, 24-hour operations) are inspected most often, moderate-volume sit-down restaurants land in the middle, and low-volume operations least often. Cleaning is then required whenever an inspection finds grease deposits, so actual service intervals run anywhere from monthly to annual depending on what your system is really producing. For hood & exhaust cleaning specifically in Burlingame, we look at your equipment, your menu, and how the system looks on the first visit, then set a cadence that keeps you compliant without paying for service you do not need. Get it wrong and you either waste money or risk a fire and a failed inspection. We help you find the right interval.

Will hood & exhaust cleaning keep me compliant with the Central County Fire Department?

That is exactly what it is for. We do the work to the NFPA 96 standard the Central County Fire Department enforces across San Mateo County, then leave you with dated before and after photos, a written service report, and a record you can hand any inspector. Fire marshals want to see both a properly maintained system and current documentation, and a gap in either can bring a fine or a forced closure. If you ever have a grease fire, your insurer will ask for these same records, and not having them can mean a denied claim. We make sure your Burlingame kitchen always has that proof ready.

How fast can you get to my Burlingame kitchen?

We can usually get you on the calendar the same week, and we schedule Burlingame jobs around your hours, including nights and early mornings, so your kitchen never loses a service period. If you are dealing with an upcoming inspection or a system that is clearly overdue, tell us and we will prioritize it. For recurring accounts we set a standing schedule so hood & exhaust cleaning just happens on time without you having to track it. Call or text and we will find a slot that works.

What does hood & exhaust cleaning cost in Burlingame?

We quote it based on your actual setup rather than a one-size-fits-all price. What moves the number: the size and layout of your system, your cook type and grease load, roof and equipment access, and how long it has been since the last proper service, since heavier buildup means more labor. A Burlingame kitchen kept on a regular schedule always costs less than one being brought back to code for the first time. Give us your cook type, hood count, and location and we will give you a real quote. Estimates are always free.
