Why it's not optional in Houston

Skip it and it costs you

Harris County fire marshals check hood-cleaning records, and insurers require proof of a current schedule. Miss it and you're risking your inspection, your coverage, and a real fire.

  • ✓ Prepare records for your Houston fire-marshal inspection
  • ✓ Keep service records for your insurer
  • ✓ Reduce grease buildup in the exhaust system
  • ✓ Protect your building, your crew, and your doors staying open

Houston hood cleaning — questions we hear

How often does a restaurant in Houston need its hood cleaned?

NFPA 96 separates inspection for grease buildup from cleaning. Baseline inspection intervals are monthly for solid-fuel cooking, quarterly for high-volume cooking such as 24-hour, charbroil or wok operations, semiannually for moderate volume, and annually for low volume. Cleaning depends on the deposits found; confirm the adopted requirements and any shorter interval with the local authority and qualified technician.

Do you serve all of Houston, TX?

Yes — we cover Houston and the surrounding Harris County area, including Downtown, Midtown, and Montrose. We schedule after hours so there's no interruption to service.

What proof do I get for the Harris County fire inspector?

A dated service record and a service sticker on your hood every visit, plus before-and-after photos when available — the kind of record a fire marshal or insurer may ask to see.

Do you clean the ductwork and rooftop fan in Houston?

Yes. A true cleaning covers the entire exhaust system — hood, filters, the full duct run, and the rooftop exhaust fan — not just the visible hood. That's what keeps you compliant and safe.

What service can I expect?
