What Union County Kitchens Need to Know

Commercial kitchen exhaust systems fall under NFPA 96, the national standard for ventilation and fire protection in cooking operations. Union County is a dense urban-suburban county on the north edge of our New Jersey territory, with kitchens in Elizabeth, Union, Cranford, Plainfield, and Westfield.

Inspection authority can vary between municipalities, which is why we leave every kitchen with a signed, dated service report you can hand to a fire marshal, health inspector, or insurer.

Union County is part of our Central Jersey service area, and the same standard applies here as everywhere else we work. Every job ends with a signed service report in your hands.

🏙️ Dense Urban-Suburban Mix

Tight buildings and busy corridors call for planning before the crew arrives.

📈 Growing Coverage

Union County is one of the newer parts of our New Jersey territory.

📄 One Report, Every Inspector

A signed cleaning report supports fire, health, and insurance reviews alike.

⭐ Flagship Service
Kitchen Exhaust System Cleaning

The Complete System, Hood to Rooftop

Every visit covers the entire exhaust system, not just what’s visible from the kitchen floor. A hood-only clean leaves grease in the plenum, duct, and fan, which is both a fire hazard and a common reason systems fail inspection.

After every service you receive a signed service report documenting what was cleaned and when, your compliance record for inspectors and insurers.

  • Hood interior and exterior degreased to bare metal
  • Plenum (grease intercept chamber) cleaned out
  • Full duct run brushed and cleaned, not just wiped at access points
  • Exhaust fan disassembled, degreased, cleaned, and reset
  • Baffle filters deep-soaked or replaced

Required Cleaning Frequency

How Often Should a Union County Kitchen Be Cleaned?
