In the grand hotels that grace our cities, the cleaning of large-scale kitchen exhaust systems is a task of paramount importance, often entrusted to professional cleaning companies. These specialists, equipped with both knowledge and experience, ensure not only a swift and thorough cleaning process but also one that is safe and efficient.
The Insider’s Guide to Exhaust Fan and Purifier Maintenance
Fans: The cleaning goes beyond the surface; it involves dismantling the fans to access and clean their interiors. Only personnel with relevant expertise and extensive experience undertake this task, guaranteeing the normal functioning of the fans post-cleaning.
Smoke Purifiers: Approximately 80% of kitchen smoke extraction issues are due to the neglect of cleaning the high-pressure plates inside smoke purifiers, leading to clogs caused by grease build-up.
Open Hole Method: This technique, while more challenging and costly, ensures a comprehensive clean. Technicians calculate the necessary intervals, positions, sizes, and numbers of holes to be made for cleaning the ducts from the inside, followed by meticulous sealing of each hole.
Mechanical Equipment Method: The easiest, least difficult, and most cost-effective cleaning method, particularly suitable for vertical ducts requiring cleaning cycles shorter than six months. The process involves spraying a degreaser inside the ducts, followed by high-pressure cleaning.
