Rooftop Grease Containment in McKinney, TX
Rooftop grease containment in McKinney, TX keeps the grease runoff from your upblast fan captured in cups, catch pans, and absorbent pads — protecting your roof, meeting NFPA 96, and passing the inspection item many cleaners skip.
NFPA 96 requires grease from the fan to be contained, not pooling on the roof. Grease on a roof is a fire load, an environmental issue, and it degrades the roofing membrane — and a greasy roof is a common citation even when the hood below is clean. We empty and clean the grease cups, inspect and replace saturated pads, and degrease the roof surface under and around the fan.
Containment is serviced at the same NFPA 96 frequency as the rest of your system — monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually based on cooking volume. We can supply replacement pads and cups on a recurring plan and flag any damaged containment hardware in your service report for repair.
Why does rooftop grease containment matter for inspection?
