Your Exhaust System Is the Backbone of Your Kitchen. Keep It Running.
When an exhaust fan fails in a commercial kitchen, the whole operation stops. Grease builds up on neglected fans, wearing out belts ahead of schedule, throwing blades off-balance, and shortening the lifespan of your entire ventilation system. Kitchen Guard of Dallas–Fort Worth fixes that—and keeps it from happening again.
Our certified technicians repair and replace UL-listed components to manufacturer standards and NFPA 96 code requirements. Whether you operate in Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington, or Plano, our local team is ready with the right parts and the expertise to get your system back up—fast.
Exhaust Fan Access Panel Installation
Without access to both sides of your fan blades, grease accumulates and throws the fan off-balance—reducing efficiency and accelerating wear. NFPA 96 requires access panels. Kitchen Guard installs both flat and curved UL-listed access panels to bring you into compliance and keep you there.
Exhaust Fan Hinge Kit Installation
A hinge kit is not optional—it is required by the National Fire Protection Association. Without it, your fan cannot be properly serviced or inspected. Kitchen Guard installs code-compliant hinge kits with integrated grease containment, so every service visit goes smoothly and your kitchen stays protected.
Exhaust Fan Belt Replacement
A worn or broken belt can shut down your exhaust system without warning. Kitchen Guard performs routine belt inspections and replaces belts on schedule—before they fail. We also adjust tension and alignment to protect your motor and extend the life of your fan.
Exhaust Fan Replacement
Sometimes a repair is not enough. When your fan motor or housing is beyond saving, Kitchen Guard replaces the full unit with a UL-listed exhaust fan sized and spec’d for your kitchen—installed to manufacturer standards and documented for compliance.

We offer 24/7 emergency exhaust repair service across the entire Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex. Because we’re a local team — not a franchise dispatch center routing calls through a national hotline — you’re talking directly to your DFW crew. Response time depends on your location, but we prioritize emergency calls and aim to get a certified technician on-site as fast as possible. Call us at 469-430-9262 any time, day or night.
Our Fan Maintenance Program is a comprehensive quarterly service plan at $110 per fan per month. It covers motor, belts, and bearings, and includes a lifetime warranty on covered parts (effective after 30 days). Each quarterly visit includes lubrication of Zerk fittings, motor casing cleaning for heat dissipation, belt replacement as needed (at minimum every 6 months), and AMP draw measurement to confirm safe electrical load. For most DFW restaurant owners, the program pays for itself by preventing a single unexpected motor failure — which typically runs $300–$400 or more.
We handle the full range of commercial exhaust fan repairs: access panel installation (flat and curved, UL-listed), hinge kit installation with grease containment, belt replacement and tension adjustment, full fan motor and unit replacement, curb extensions and reductions, roof protection and grease damage repairs, and custom solutions for non-standard systems. If you’re not sure whether your issue is repairable, call us — we’ll give you an honest assessment. We never recommend a replacement if a repair will do the job.
Yes. Every Kitchen Guard technician is certified and trained specifically on commercial exhaust systems. We follow NFPA 96 and UL standards on every job and use only UL-listed parts installed to manufacturer specifications. After every visit, we provide same-day NFPA 96-compliant documentation — which is exactly what you need for insurance records, fire marshal inspections, and health department compliance here in Texas.
Not necessarily. Noise and power loss are usually signs of worn belts, bearing failure, or motor strain — all of which are repairable in most cases. Kitchen Guard will diagnose the issue first. We only recommend a full replacement when the motor or housing is genuinely beyond repair. We’ll always tell you straight, because we’re a local business in DFW and our reputation depends on giving you the right answer, not the most expensive one.
Kitchen Guard of Dallas–Fort Worth serves the full DFW Metroplex, including Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington, Plano, McKinney, Denton, and surrounding communities. We’re locally based, not a national chain routing work through outside contractors — so when you call, you get our own certified technicians who know the area and can respond fast.
