DENVER METRO’S HOOD CLEANING SPECIALISTS

Full-System Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning That Meets NFPA 96

Serving Eden, Aurora, Lakewood, Westminster, Arvada, Golden, Greenwood Village, Englewood, Littleton & the entire Eden area

What’s Included in Every Hood Cleaning Service

Our NFPA 96 certified technicians clean the full exhaust system from top to bottom — hood canopy, filters, ductwork, and rooftop exhaust fan. First, we degrease the entire system using professional-grade cleaning agents. Next, we perform a thorough inspection to identify any buildup or compliance concerns. After that, we document every step with photos for your compliance file.

Why Eden Kitchens Need Expert NFPA 96 Service

The Eden Fire Department, West Metro Fire Rescue, and South Metro Fire Rescue all enforce NFPA 96 strictly. Specifically, high-volume kitchens in the Eden area face more frequent inspections. As a result, Eden restaurants need a cleaning partner who understands local AHJ requirements — not just a pressure washer.

Proof of Compliance After Every Visit

After every service, we provide digital photo documentation and certified service stickers. Furthermore, we submit compliance reports directly to the relevant fire districts on your behalf, so you have nothing to worry about when the fire marshal visits.

Cleaning Frequency Requirements

  • High-volume kitchens (fast food, wok cooking): Every 1–3 months
  • Moderate-volume restaurants: Every 6 months
  • Low-volume / seasonal kitchens: Annually
  • All frequencies per NFPA 96 Table 11.4

Kitchen Guard’s certified technicians clean every inch of your exhaust system — from the hood canopy and grease filters to the ductwork and rooftop fan — using commercial-grade pressure washing equipment and EPA-compliant degreasers. We don’t cut corners, and we don’t just clean what you can see.
