Why It’s Important to Keep the Hoods of Your Commercial Kitchen Clean
Think of all the expensive equipment that constitutes a commercial kitchen. Whether it’s the deck ovens, refrigerators, fryers, cold rooms or the exhaust hood system, each of these requires personal, close attention, so that all the kitchen activities can continue without any kind of hassle or safety issues.
Key benefits of commercial kitchen maintenance include:
Avoid Expensive Repairs:
When operating a large kitchen, you’ll come across different type of issues with the equipment. But if you are able to identify problems in time, you can have them fixed quickly and avoid expensive breakdowns. For example, if the air duct system doesn’t receive proper cleaning, it could make your kitchen vulnerable to fire safety hazard, leading to potential damages.
Increase the Lifespan of Equipment:
All the equipment and systems in a restaurant kitchen are expensive, so they should be cleaned and kept in good condition always. Provided, you take good care of them, they can last a lifetime saving you a lot of money and giving the best ROI as a result.
Boost Efficiency:
To keep the kitchen equipment functioning in a smooth manner, you will need to clean them properly and regularly. Lack of proper cleaning will lead to accumulation of lime scale over a period of time. This will hamper the efficiency of the equipment. That is why, you should pay close attention to the cleaning of all the drain and water inlets for seamless operation of activities.
Doing all the cleaning of a large kitchen is actually a daunting task. It is not just a great deal of hard work, but it also requires some special skills and experience so as to carry out the job in an appropriate manner without causing damage to costly equipment and appliances. For professional cleaning, you should always turn to a kitchen equipment management company which has several years of experience doing the job. At the APS Hoods, we have specialization in tasks such as hood cleaning, air duct cleaning, fire suppression etc. Our professionals are expertly trained in the application of pressure washing for cleaning to the bare metal.
Our kitchen cleaning service is designed to keep the expensive equipment in excellent condition and prolong their life as well.
Restaurant Kitchen Exhaust Hood Cleaning
Exhaust hood systems are an important part of every restaurant kitchen environment. By making the cooking space free from heat, smoke, and odor, these systems provide safety to the kitchen staff and anyone who goes in there. So, it’s crucial that you prevent the buildup of grease inside the hood and air ducts.
A restaurant kitchen can never safely operate without using an exhaust hood system. After you have installed the exhaust hood system, it is important that you give it the attention it deserves. No matter how sophisticated an exhaust system you have installed, you can never avoid greasy build up inside it. In large kitchens, high volume cooking goes on a day to day basis and so buildup is frequent. Take a quick glance at the underside of the exhaust hood canopy and you’ll spot the buildup.
Other areas where you can check for greasy buildup are the fire suppression system, the ductwork, and the restaurant exhaust fan installed on the roof. This greasy buildup is often the culprit for most of the restaurant fires happening around the world.
To safeguard the kitchen staff against fire hazards, every component of the exhaust hood system has to be properly cleaned.
Notice:
This is important to note that exhaust hood cleaning doesn’t only keep your employees and customers well-protected against hazards, but it also allows you to adhere to the regulations of the National Fire Protection Association. Unless the code drafted in regard to the installation and maintenance of the exhaust hood is appropriately followed, you can get yourself in trouble and end up paying a heavy amount of money as a fine for violating the safety norms. Worse still, you may be asked to shut down your restaurant altogether for having a poor standard.
