Commercial Kitchen Cleaning in Atlanta, GA
Commercial Kitchen Cleaning
At Pristine Hoods Vent Services, we provide top-tier commercial kitchen cleaning services throughout Atlanta, GA. As a fully certified, insured, and experienced team, we understand the importance of maintaining a safe and code-compliant kitchen. Atlanta is a city full of culinary pride, from its vibrant downtown food scene to its array of restaurants, schools, hospitals, and hotels. Every commercial kitchen in this city shares a common need: to keep their cooking environments safe, clean, and functioning at peak efficiency.
Our specialized services are built around the unique demands of commercial food preparation. We focus exclusively on commercial operations and provide expert-level cleaning that extends well beyond the surface. With our NFPA 96 certification and commitment to thoroughness, we help reduce fire risks, improve ventilation efficiency, and ensure your kitchen passes health and fire inspections with confidence.

Commercial Kitchen Safety and Cleanliness
Atlanta's food scene is booming, attracting locals and tourists alike with its blend of Southern comfort food, upscale dining, and cultural diversity. With this growth comes a responsibility for food service operators to meet increasingly strict safety standards. One of the most overlooked, yet critical, aspects of kitchen safety is maintaining clean exhaust systems. When grease and residue are allowed to build up in hoods, ducts, and fans, it doesn’t just impact ventilation; it dramatically increases the risk of fire.
A clean exhaust system means better airflow, reduced odors, and safer kitchen operations. It also protects your investment in expensive kitchen equipment and ensures a more comfortable environment for staff. At Pristine Hoods Vent Services, we help you stay ahead of these challenges through proactive, professional, and reliable cleaning solutions. Whether you're operating a fast-paced grill in the Northshore area or a school cafeteria in Brainerd, our services are designed to protect your people, your business, and your reputation.

Comprehensive Hood Cleaning Services
Our commercial kitchen exhaust hood cleaning is about more than just aesthetics. Grease, smoke, and vaporized oils accumulate in hard-to-reach areas, which require more than a simple wipe-down. Our team uses professional-grade equipment and proven methods to completely clean the full exhaust system, including:
Duct and Fan Cleaning
Your exhaust ductwork and rooftop fans are integral to kitchen safety, yet they are often neglected. Grease and soot can accumulate deep within the duct system and inside fan blades, limiting airflow and creating hidden ignition points. Our duct and fan cleaning service ensures that these systems are thoroughly cleaned and function at optimal performance levels. Clean ducts and fans not only reduce fire risk, but they also improve kitchen air quality and overall system efficiency.
Full Hood Degreasing and Surface Cleaning
We start with a meticulous degreasing of the entire hood, including both interior and exterior surfaces. Grease deposits on the surface of the hood can drip onto cooking areas, contaminate food, and present a serious fire hazard. Our technicians remove every trace of buildup, restoring the hood to a clean, grease-free condition.
NFPA 96 Compliance and Fire-Risk Reduction
We adhere to the NFPA 96 Standard for Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations. This national standard outlines the required maintenance procedures for kitchen exhaust systems, and failing to comply can result in failed inspections or denied insurance claims. Our NFPA 96 certification guarantees that your system is being cleaned to the highest safety standards, helping you avoid costly liabilities and stay in full compliance with state and local fire codes.

Filter and Equipment Cleaning
Grease filters are the first line of defense in your kitchen’s ventilation system, but they quickly become saturated. A dirty filter can restrict airflow, create unpleasant odors, and increase the risk of fire. We deep-clean or replace filters to ensure they’re working effectively. In addition to filters, we clean all major cooking equipment, including ovens, fryers, and flat tops and grills. These appliances require regular attention to prevent dangerous grease buildup and bacterial contamination.
Floor Degreasing and High-Touch Surface Sanitizing
While exhaust systems are critical, a truly safe kitchen requires attention to all areas. Slippery kitchen floors pose serious risks for employees, leading to potential injuries and liability claims. Our floor degreasing service eliminates slippery surfaces and reduces the risk of accidents. We also sanitize high-touch surfaces such as prep tables, counters, and equipment handles. These services help maintain health code compliance, reduce bacterial transfer, and create a safer, more hygienic kitchen environment.

FAQs
How often should I schedule hood and exhaust cleaning for my commercial kitchen?
The frequency of cleaning depends on the volume and type of cooking in your kitchen. For high-volume restaurants using fryers, charbroilers, or woks, monthly cleaning is typically recommended. Medium-volume kitchens, such as those in hotels or hospital cafeterias, often require cleaning every three months. Lower-volume operations, like school cafeterias or seasonal facilities, may only need cleaning two to four times per year. Our team can assess your specific operation and recommend a maintenance schedule that keeps you compliant with fire codes and local regulations.
Is Pristine Hoods Vent Services certified and compliant with fire safety standards?
Yes. We are NFPA 96 certified, which is the national benchmark for commercial kitchen fire safety. This certification ensures that our cleaning methods, documentation, and technician training meet the highest standards. By choosing a certified company, you reduce the risk of fire, lower your liability, and stay prepared for inspections from local fire marshals and health departments.
Do you clean more than just the hood system?
Absolutely. In addition to exhaust hood cleaning, we offer thorough cleaning of commercial ovens, fryers, grills, flat tops, and other cooking equipment. We also provide floor degreasing and surface sanitization to enhance overall kitchen safety and cleanliness. Our comprehensive approach ensures your entire kitchen, not just the visible areas, is clean and code-compliant. These services are particularly valuable for kitchens that undergo regular health inspections or have had safety violations in the past.
Will your cleaning services disrupt my kitchen operations or schedule?
No. We understand how important it is to keep your kitchen running smoothly, especially during peak hours. That’s why we offer flexible scheduling, including overnight or early morning appointments, to minimize any interference with your operations. Our team is fast, professional, and respectful of your time and space. We coordinate with your staff to make the process seamless and stress-free, so you can focus on serving your customers while we handle the cleaning behind the scenes.
Do you provide documentation for insurance or inspection purposes?
Yes, we provide detailed service reports for every cleaning appointment. These reports include checklists, technician notes, and before-and-after photos to show exactly what was cleaned and how thoroughly. This documentation is invaluable for insurance compliance and can also be used to demonstrate NFPA 96 compliance during fire and health inspections. If your business is ever audited or involved in a claim, our reports can serve as essential proof that your exhaust system was maintained properly.
