Kitchen Exhaust Duct Cleaning Georgetown, TX

Professional Kitchen Exhaust Duct Cleaning Services in Georgetown, TX

Every kitchen exhaust duct collects grease over time, and the longer it sits, the greater the fire risk. Our crew scrapes and washes the grease out of every reachable duct run. Before cleaning, we measure grease depth at several points along the exhaust duct. After protecting the kitchen, we coat the duct interior with a degreasing solution and let it soak in. We power wash each duct run and direct the grease runoff into containment. We finish with a final inspection and before-and-after photos. Below are the specific kitchen exhaust duct cleaning services we offer for residential and commercial kitchens.

Kitchen Exhaust Hood Cleaning in Georgetown

The hood canopy catches grease vapor first, and grease builds fastest on the filter rack, the plenum behind the filters, and the drip gutters along the edges. Our team removes the baffle filters, wraps the cooking equipment below in heavy plastic, and sets up a containment trough to catch runoff. We hand-scrape thick deposits from the plenum, then apply a caustic degreaser and rinse with a hot water pressure washer. Grease cups and gutters get emptied and cleaned, and light fixtures inside the hood get wiped down. Every surface gets checked for bare metal before the filters go back in place. Your hood draws smoke away from the line faster, and the kitchen stays cooler during service.

Grease Duct Cleaning Service in Georgetown

Grease that passes the filters coats the inside of the exhaust duct, and horizontal runs collect the thickest layers where grease vapor cools and settles. Georgetown Air Duct Pro opens each duct access panel along the run and inspects the interior to measure grease depth. Crews scrape heavy deposits by hand, then spray degreaser through the duct and pressure-wash it from both ends. Runoff gets captured and removed so no grease water drains into the building. Sections without access panels get flagged for new panel installation. When the rooftop stack above the duct also holds a heavy grease layer, we perform industrial duct cleaning on that section during the same visit. Each section gets photographed before and after for your records. The duct carries exhaust freely, and the fire load hidden inside the building drops.

Restaurant Exhaust Duct Cleaning in Georgetown

Restaurants with charbroilers, woks, and fryers push heavy grease through their exhaust every service, and NFPA 96 calls for more frequent cleaning. Our crew arrives after closing and wraps the cook line, floors, and nearby equipment before turning on any pressure washer. We clean the hood, ducts, and rooftop fan in one overnight visit so the kitchen opens on time the next day. When the connected HVAC supply ducts also pull cooking odors into the dining area, we perform commercial air duct cleaning on those lines during the same overnight window. Each job ends with a dated certificate on the hood and a photo report the owner can show fire inspectors and insurers. We set your next service date based on the cooking volume and equipment on your line. Your kitchen stays in compliance, and the morning crew walks into a clean, dry hood.

Commercial Kitchen Duct Cleaning in Georgetown

Schools, hospitals, hotels, and corporate cafeterias run large hood systems with long duct runs that often pass through several floors. Our pros review the duct path, locate every access panel, and plan the work around the facility's meal schedule. Vertical risers get cleaned from the roof down with rotary brushes and pressure washing, and horizontal runs get cleaned through side panels. We coordinate with facility managers on roof access, fire alarm notifications, and after-hours entry. Hospital and school kitchens get cleaned during low-use windows to avoid meal disruption. A written report covers each hood and duct section cleaned. Your facility meets its inspection schedule, and kitchen staff get full exhaust capacity during peak meal service.

Residential Kitchen Exhaust Duct Cleaning in Georgetown

Home range hoods collect grease from daily cooking, and the duct running to the wall or roof cap builds a sticky layer that slows the fan and holds odors. We remove the mesh or baffle filters and soak them in a degreasing solution while the hood interior gets wiped by hand. The fan blades and motor housing get degreased, and a brush with a degreasing head cleans the duct up to the exterior cap. The cap damper gets checked so it opens fully and closes against outside air. Cabinets and countertops get covered before any cleaning starts. Your hood pulls smoke out faster, and cooking odors stop lingering after meals.

Rooftop Exhaust Fan Cleaning in Georgetown

Upblast exhaust fans on the roof pull grease through their blades and housing, and that buildup unbalances the fan and drips onto the roof. Our team tilts the fan on its hinge kit, or installs one where code requires it, to reach the fan wheel and the duct opening below. We scrape and pressure-wash the fan wheel, housing, and curb, then check the belt, bearings, and motor for wear. If the fan wheel or housing is cracked and cannot be balanced, we also complete air duct repair at the fan connection before reassembly. Grease containment on the roof gets emptied or replaced so runoff stops staining the roof membrane. Fans with worn belts or noisy bearings get noted in your report. The fan spins balanced and quiet, and the roof stays free of grease pools.

Hood Filter Exchange in Georgetown

Baffle filters clog with grease between full cleanings, and clogged filters cut airflow and push smoke back into the kitchen. Georgetown Air Duct Pro offers a filter exchange service that swaps your dirty filters for clean ones on a set schedule. Technicians remove each filter, check its size and condition, and install a freshly cleaned stainless steel baffle in its place. Dirty filters go back to our company for hot-tank soaking and pressure washing. Bent or damaged filters get replaced, since gaps let grease pass straight into the duct. Exchanges run weekly, biweekly, or monthly based on your cooking volume. Your hood keeps its full draw between deep cleanings, and less grease reaches the ducts.

Access Panel Installation in Georgetown

Duct sections without access panels cannot be cleaned to bare metal, and NFPA 96 requires openings at set intervals and at changes in direction. Our crew inspects the duct route and marks the spots where panels are missing or too far apart. We cut each opening and install a listed grease duct access door with a high-temperature gasket and a liquid-tight seal. When the access panel reveals a section of duct with separated seams or rusted metal, we complete air duct replacement at that section before closing the panel. Panels on vertical risers get placed on each floor the riser passes through. Every door gets labeled so future cleaning crews can find it. Previously unreachable sections get cleaned during the same visit. Every foot of your grease duct becomes cleanable, and inspection reports stop flagging missed sections.
