If you own or manage a restaurant or a business with a commercial kitchen, you need to be
aware of the condition of your kitchen exhaust system. Many kitchen exhaust cleaning companies
will only clean the areas that you can see well, but neglect the areas which are out of sight.
These out of sight areas can get really loaded with grease and oily residues that could ignite if a
kitchen fire spreads into your exhaust system.
Insist that your kitchen exhaust cleaning company take photos of their work, if not, you may end
up with greasy fire hazards like the one in this slide show.

KITCHEN EXHAUST SYSTEM FIRE HAZARDS
This system was serviced by a certified kitchen exhaust cleaning company in November of '07.
One of our Grease Police inspectors took these photos shortly after the service. Notice how the
hood is clean, but the areas that are out of sight are loaded with greasy mess.
Do not take certification as a guarantee that your hood cleaning company is fully cleaning your
kitchen exhaust system. Your restaurant, and the safety of your employees and customers, are
at stake.
