From Roof-top To Cook-top, We Clean The Entire System
hoodz is a national authority in kitchen exhaust cleaning. hoodz separates itself from the competition by inspecting and cleaning the entire system beyond the hood, providing a complete photographic inspection of the cleaning, and by offering a true professional service at a competitive price
$
Out Of Sight Is Not Out Of Mind
grease from the kitchen travels into the hood, through the vent hood filters, into ductwork that leads to the exhaust fan on the roof. grease is a fuel that can ignite with a simple spark from the kitchen cooking line and spread throughout the attic and onto the roof in seconds causing severe damage and potential loss of life. the owner of the exhaust system has the ultimate responsibility to ensure the exhaust system is safe
$
Picture Perfect Standard
because all areas of the exhaust system become contaminated with grease, a properly trained, qualified, and certified exhaust cleaner should inspect and clean the entire system in accordance with nfpa standard-96, including every inch of the ductwork and the exhaust fan on the roof. aside from checking the work yourself, photos are the best way to ensure your exhaust system is being maintained and properly cleaned. at hoodz, we won’t just tell you its clean, we’ll prove it. we do more than just take “before and after” photos; we provide you with a comprehensive report verifying that the work performed followed consistent, transparent, standardized procedures demonstrating the system has been inspected and cleaned according to the nfpa standard-96
$

Our Process
Easy Scheduling
all hoodz customers are entered into our proprietary scheduling software which automatically alerts us when your exhaust system needs to be inspected. once your restaurant becomes a hoodz customer and an inspection/cleaning frequency is established, our scheduler contacts the restaurant management at least one week prior to the inspection/cleaning due date and establishes a specific date and time for our technicians to arrive at your restaurant. further, we always give a reminder call a few hours prior to the inspection/cleaning and arrival of our technicians
$
While We Clean: Try Our Secured Key Program
most hoodz customers take advantage of our secured key program, which allows us to have a key and assigned alarm code to your restaurant. because of our national reputation and being fully insured and bonded, most restaurant owners prefer that we perform our cleaning in the middle of the night and allow us to lock-up and set the alarm for the restaurant after we are finished. while most make other arrangements, some hoodz customers do prefer to schedule restaurant management or security at the same time we clean; in those cases, we always work to accommodate the restaurant owner’s preference
$
Inspection, Cleaning, And Photograph Validation Reports
once hoodz arrives at your restaurant, we perform a systematic inspection of your entire exhaust system from the roof-top to the cook-top. we offer a complete, fully validated, comprehensive report documenting our work through specific photographic inspections. the hoodz picture perfect standard provides verification that the work performed followed consistent, transparent, standardized procedures ensuring that the cleaning process complies with provisions of nfpa standard-96, insurance, fire inspections, health departments and all applicable federal, state and local laws
$
Invoicing Made Easy
once all work has been verified, hoodz generates an invoice that can be mailed, emailed, or faxed depending on the restaurant owner’s preference. for national or regional accounts, hoodz can provide consolidated billing and account management

Grease Containment Systems
A Common Problem – Roof-top Grease
grease and rainwater can leak out of the exhaust fan and onto the roof between exhaust cleaning cycles causing a real problem for restaurant owners. because this problem is out of sight, many restaurant owners are not even aware of the problem on their roof
$
Expensive Repairs, Damage And Deterioration
grease on the roof-top of restaurants is not only unsanitary; it can cause expensive roof damage, is a potentially severe fire hazard, and can cause water runoff resulting in epa violations. grease can deteriorate and damage the integrity of the roof causing blistering, leaks, and expensive repairs. grease is a fuel that can easily ignite with the smallest electrical short and can spread across the roof if a flame came up the duct. water runoff from the roof can also cause environmental hazards, and may result in environmental epa violations from contaminated runoff into nearby waterways
$
The Solution – Hoodz Grease Containment Systems
while grease on the roof of restaurants is nothing new to the restaurant industry, hoodz has developed a new roof-top grease containment system and service program that is affordable and effective. all roof-top grease containment systems must allow rainwater to pass through while capturing the grease and must be maintained on a regular basis for them to work properly. because most restaurant owners do not service their own roof-top grease containment systems, hoodz recommends restaurant owners sign up for our turn-key service program and allow our trained technicians to handle this responsibility
$
Grease Containment Service Program
the hoodz turn-key service program allows the hoodz technician to properly install and maintain the roof-top grease containment system. the restaurant simply signs up for the maintenance program, pays a small service fee, and the hoodz technician can buy, install, and maintain the roof-top grease containment system on a regular basis and ensure no new grease is on the roof. the restaurant does not purchase the equipment or filters and can cancel the hoodz roof-top grease service program at any time. for more information about the hoodz roof-top grease service program call 888.514.6639

$

$
Exhaust Fan Hinge Installation
the nfpa standard-96 requires each exhaust fan to be hinged, allowing appropriate inspection and cleaning. hinging of the exhaust fan is not only required by the code, it also helps to increase the life of the fan. if not hinged, the electrical wiring can be torn and exhaust fans can be damaged. hoodz can purchase and install exhaust fan hinge kits at a very competitive price due to our exclusive relationship with industry manufacturers
$
Fan Access Panel Installation
nfpa standard-96 requires fan access panels on the exhaust fans, allowing all areas of the fan to be inspected and cleaned. fan access panels allow the technician to clean the back side of the fan blades. not having access panels results in grease build-up on the blades, which can cause the fan to become off-balance, rattle, and wear-out the bearings and belt, thus degrading the overall effectiveness of the exhaust fan. hoodz can purchase and install exhaust fan panels at a very competitive price due to our exclusive relationship with industry manufacturers
$
