How often should Alexandria restaurants schedule hood cleaning?

NFPA 96 requires monthly cleaning for high-volume kitchens, quarterly for most full-service restaurants, and annually for low-volume kitchens. Kitchen Guard will assess your kitchen and recommend the correct frequency.

Does the Alexandria Fire Marshal require hood cleaning documentation?

Yes. The Alexandria Fire Department expects a posted compliance sticker and written service report during inspections. Kitchen Guard provides both on every service visit.

Do you serve Old Town Alexandria?

Yes. Kitchen Guard of DMV serves all Alexandria neighborhoods including Old Town, King Street, Del Ray, Arlandria, Potomac Yard, Landmark, Eisenhower Valley, Beauregard, and Seminary Road.
