Our Hood Cleaning Process in McKinney, TX

Before

We confirm your NFPA 96 frequency, lock the crew and time window, and send a reminder before the visit.

During

We walk the full system, photo-document current condition, and lay protection over your cook line, floors, and equipment before any water or degreaser goes down.

After

You receive a pre-clean condition record with photos and the frequency applied to your account.

Before

We shut down and cool the line with your GM so the system is safe to open.

During

Hood canopy, baffles, plenum, full horizontal and vertical ductwork, and the rooftop upblast fan are degreased to bare metal — the NFPA 96 standard for a compliant clean.

After

The full exhaust path is clean from the cook line to the roof, not just the visible hood.

Before

Protection stays in place while we finish the visible surfaces.

During

We detail the canopy exterior and front edge, degrease the surrounding cook line and walls, and clean up the workspace so the kitchen looks inspection-ready, not just functional.

After

The hood is visibly clean to a health walk-through and the area is left tidy.

Before

Nothing — this step is the documentation that closes out the visit.

During

We apply a dated service sticker to the hood and capture before/after photos of every area cleaned.

After

You receive a photo report listing each area cleaned, the NFPA 96 frequency applied, and the technician's name — ready to hand to a fire marshal, health inspector, or insurance carrier.

What documentation you receive

Every visit ends with the same paperwork package so you never have to chase us for proof of compliance.

• Dated service sticker applied to the hood — the first thing a fire marshal looks for.
• Before/after photo report emailed to you, covering every area cleaned.
• NFPA 96 frequency record showing the correct cycle for your cooking volume.
• Technician name & visit timestamp logged for your records and ours.
• Annual compliance summary for maintenance-plan members — ready for insurance.
