Restaurant exhaust hood cleaning is government mandated and enforced by fire inspectors throughout the USA & Canada. We have been cleaning exhaust hood systems for over 20 years. It is a lucrative business, but you have to know how to clean as per NFPA Code 96 and perform the work safely and to code.
Exhaust hood cleaning is fire prevention, not pressure washing. We will teach you how to clean fast and safe and understand the code behind the work while learning marketing, estimating, cooking oil filtration, waste oil collection, how to get bonded and bid on yearly school contracts and where to buy affordable tools, equipment and chemical to run a successful business!
NFPA CODE 96
So many restaurant owners do not know much about the NFPA Code 96, www.NFPA.org, and how it applies to the fire safety of their restaurant. After a fire happens, it's too late for the restaurant owner to learn! We will teach you the code so you can educate them and they will appreciate all that you teach them and show them that you care about their restaurant.
For example, if a restaurant is a 24 hour operation, they must clean their hoods quarterly as per NFPA Code 96. If however the owner does not know this and he has been cleaning them 3 times a year because the fire inspector never sited him, and then he has a fire... his insurance company is the one that will say to him, "I'm sorry we can't pay your million dollar fire claim because according to NFPA Code 96 you should have been cleaning your hoods 4 times a year and grease is fuel which caused the restaurant fire". AS A PROFESSIONAL, IT'S UP TO YOU TO EDUCATE THE RESTAURANT OWNER WHO WILL BE YOUR POTENTIAL CLIENT. This is the attitude that you must have to be respected in the industry and for customers to stay with you for years to come.
Our school will teach you 3 services as part of your 4 day training & certification 1) Kitchen exhaust hood cleaning 2) Cooking oil filtration 3) cooking waste oil collection.
Commercial kitchen exhaust hood cleaning is needed by ALL restaurants, schools, hospitals, hotels, nursing homes, malls, airports, jails and every type of food serving entity. Cleanings are mostly done at night, 1-12 times a year depending on the type of cooking with prices ranging from $400-$600+ per cleaning, which can take about 3-4 hours. Profit margins on jobs are about 40%-60% which makes this kind of work extremely lucrative. NFPA Code 96.11.6.1 mandates that if upon inspection, the exhaust system is found to be contaminated with deposits from grease laden vapors, the contaminated portions of the exhaust system should be cleaned by properly trained, qualified and certified persons acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction. Thus, only a CERTIFIED and TRAINED professional can clean a commercial exhaust hood system. If there is a fire and the work was not done by a certified individual, the restaurant risks not getting paid their insurance claim. We will teach you the NFPA code, marketing, estimating, and how to bid school and public entity jobs, as well as cooking oil filtration and waste oil collection which are even more lucrative services offered to eating establishments.
