The standard clean time for a hood system is 3-5 hours. This can vary based on the size of each system, number of systems, location and logistics required to properly service.

Our technicians take pictures of all areas that have been cleaned. Those pictures are then compiled and emailed to you after the service is complete along with any notes about potential deficiencies found during the service.

There are a number of factors that go into determining the cost of a hood cleaning but we can usually give a quote over email, often times the same day.

If we can get a few photos of the hood(s) emailed to us along with the name and address of the location we can start the quote. Other information we need is how many hoods (and fans) there are, how many stories is the building, and the location of the fan(s). Depending on the size and complexity of the job, on occasion, we will need to visit the location for a walkthrough but most of the time we can give you a quote over the phone and email by just getting this information, which can save a lot of time.
