Our Services
Duct Cleaning
We meticulously clean your ductwork to eliminate grease buildup, ensuring compliance with NFPA 96 standards and enhancing system efficiency.
Grease inside ductwork is a leading commercial kitchen fire risk. Across Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill we degrease the full run from hood to rooftop fan, add access where required, and document the clean for your records.
- Full ductwork degreasing
- NFPA 96 compliance
- Improved system efficiency
- Access panel inspection
Full-run duct degreasing
Hood-only cleans leave grease in the horizontal and vertical duct path—exactly where fires travel. We clean the accessible duct system from the hood plenum toward the exhaust fan.
Where code or access panels are missing, we identify gaps during evaluation so the clean can be complete and inspectable.
Long horizontal runs above ceilings are common in Triangle restaurants and institutional kitchens. We plan access, containment, and cleanup so occupied dining rooms stay protected while the duct path is opened and degreased.
- Hood-to-fan duct path degreased to NFPA 96 practice
- Access panels inspected and recommended where needed
- Reduced odor and restored airflow through the system
- Written documentation for inspections and insurers
Scheduling around your operations
Duct work is noisy and messy when done right. We schedule after hours and weekends so Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill kitchens do not lose peak service windows.
Start with a free evaluation to confirm duct length, access, and grease load before we quote a full clean.
Multi-kitchen sites (hotels, campuses, food halls) can stage ducts by branch so one kitchen stays online while another is serviced.
When ducts fail inspection
Inspectors often cite inaccessible sections, missing access panels, or visible grease beyond the hood. We help you turn those findings into a scoped clean with photos and a compliance certificate.
If construction left dead-ends or unmarked dampers, we document them so facilities and ownership can plan a lasting fix—not another temporary wipe.
Grease accumulation inside ductwork is one of the leading causes of commercial kitchen fires. We clean the entire duct run from the hood to the rooftop fan, installing access panels where required for a complete, code-compliant clean.
Our process improves system efficiency, reduces odors, and keeps your kitchen compliant with NFPA 96.
