Excellent cleaning company in Berks County. The team is very responsible and they do more than they are supposed to do to complete their job. The cleaners are punctual, professional, and friendly. They do a fantastic job cleaning our office in Reading, PA.
I've been very impressed with the cleaning team for our building. They are consistent, reliable, and pay attention to detail. The common areas are always spotless, trash is removed regularly, and they go the extra mile to ensure everything looks professional. Communication with the team is smooth, and they respond quickly to any special requests.
I hired Ziva Cleaning Services to clean a house we just purchased and not only did they do a great job, they made the entire process simple. They had great communication during the entire process.
Kitchen Hood Cleaning Service FAQ
Pricing, scheduling, scope of work. The questions facility teams ask before signing on with a new vendor.
How often should a commercial kitchen hood be cleaned?
NFPA 96 sets the standard: high-volume operations (24-hour, charbroiler, solid-fuel) need quarterly cleaning; moderate-volume restaurants need semi-annual; low-volume (churches, day camps) need annual. Most local AHJs and insurance carriers follow NFPA 96 frequencies — meeting them is what keeps the certificate valid.
What is NFPA 96 and why does it matter?
NFPA 96 is the National Fire Protection Association standard for commercial cooking exhaust. It defines the scope (hood, plenum, ducts, fan, rooftop), frequency, and certification format for kitchen exhaust cleaning. Insurance, AHJs, and health inspectors all reference NFPA 96 — non-compliance can void coverage or trigger a closure order.
What does a hood cleaning service include?
A full NFPA 96 service includes the hood interior, filters, plenum, duct work from hood to rooftop fan, the rooftop exhaust fan, the rooftop curb, and the surrounding rooftop area. Photo documentation and a dated certificate sticker are provided after every service.
When do you clean kitchen hoods?
Always overnight or during closed hours. Hood cleaning involves chemical degreasing and water rinsing — incompatible with active service. We arrange access between close and the next morning prep so the line is hot and ready on time.
Do you provide certificates and photo documentation?
Yes. After every cleaning we provide a dated NFPA 96 certificate, the dated sticker that goes inside the hood, before-and-after photos, and any AHJ or insurance-specific paperwork the operator needs to file.
