Kitchen and Grease Ducts

Dirty kitchen ducts before cleaning

Kitchen exhaust ducts in high rise buildings can be a nightmare.  Many are inaccessible, and have years of accumulated grease within them.  They host pests and create fire hazards.  Grease accumulation on the fan blades can create inadequate ventilation and harm the equipment.    

The Solution

• Hood cleaners should clean on a monthly basis, and kitchen owners need to inspect their work by removing panels and looking inside of the hood.
• Professional duct cleaners should know the NFPA codes, install access panels so the entire system is accessible for cleaning and inspection.  
• The ducts should be cleaned regularly by duct specialists to keep them maintained.  

Kitchen and Bath Vents

Minimal air flow and excessive wear on expensive equipment components can be addressed with cleaning.

Commercial Kitchen and High Rise Kitchen Exhausts

Greasy smoke exhausted from kitchens in tall buildings can create a fire hazard.  We have specialized equipment and techniques to clean risers from kitchen ceiling to rooftop fan.

Trash Chutes and Rooms

Before                    After

Foul, contaminated trash chutes are a nuisance to live with.  We sanitize and provide a maintenance program to alleviate smell and bacteria.  

Trash bags break and spill smelly contaminants throughout the length of trash chutes.  The lowest 5 floors usually suffer the worst odor problems and tenants are sickened by the smell of festering filth.  

The Solution

• Pressure wash the entire duct interior top to bottom
• Use a sanitizing agent to kill bacteria on the ducts and doors
• Pressure wash and sanitize the trash room area
• Maintenance rinse of sanitizer to prolong the life of the service

  Laundry Chutes

Laundry chutes harbor harmful bacteria and viruses and need routine cleaning and maintenance.

Dryer Vents

     Clogged Vent               Maintained Vent

Dryer Vents accumulate lint which decreases the effectiveness of the dryer, increasing energy consumption.  Additionally, lint accumulation can overload the ventilation equipment, and create fire hazards.

The Solution

• Tenants need to clean their unit filters after each dryer use
• The common duct/riser should be cleaned by a professional on a regular basis
