Commercial Grease Duct Cleaning in Mesa, AZ | Grease Duct & Exhaust Cleaning

Mesa Hood & Exhaust Co. offers expert commercial grease duct cleaning services in Mesa, AZ for restaurants, hotels, hospital kitchens, and food trucks. The thing about grease ducts is that they hide above ceilings and inside shafts, so nobody looks at them until an inspector does.

After 20 years cleaning Mesa kitchens, from strip mall taquerias near Falcon Field to hotel kitchens close to Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport, our crews know the worst buildup sits at low points in horizontal runs where liquid grease pools. Our technicians open the access panels, run a camera through each section, and show you what's inside before any cleaning starts.

Then Mesa Hood & Exhaust Co. scrapes, hot-washes, and recovers every drop of grease. You end up with before and after footage, dated panel tags, and a written report that Mesa Fire and Medical Department inspectors and your insurance agent can review. NFPA 96 expects qualified people to clean these ducts on a schedule, and our team keeps that schedule so you don't have to.

Commercial Grease Duct Cleaning in Mesa, AZ

Restaurant Grease Duct Cleaning

Restaurant grease duct cleaning deals with the part of your kitchen nobody sees, the ductwork running over dining rooms, ceilings, and mechanical chases.

Our licensed technicians send a borescope camera through hard-to-reach runs before they scrape and hot-wash the steel, and you get to watch the footage.

Most owners have never seen inside their own ducts, so that first look tends to surprise them. Cleaner interiors also give fire officials less to write up.

Commercial Kitchen Grease Duct Cleaning

Commercial kitchen grease duct cleaning works best from the far end back, so Mesa Hood & Exhaust Co. starts at the hood farthest from the fan and moves toward it.

Loosened grease never lands on sections already finished. Hotel, hospital, and school kitchens that feed several hoods into one long network save the most from this order, since it avoids return trips. Facilities managers also walk away with a simple map of their ductwork.

Commercial Exhaust Duct Cleaning

Commercial exhaust duct cleaning covers the risers and long horizontal runs that carry hot, greasy air across strip malls and multi-tenant buildings, and it starts at the low points where liquid grease settles.

The International Mechanical Code calls for at least 1/4 inch of slope per foot toward the hood or grease reservoir, so our crews check those spots first. Hitting the densest deposits early makes the rest of the run easier. Your exhaust fan also works against less resistance afterward.

Type I Exhaust Duct Cleaning

Type I exhaust duct cleaning serves the welded, liquid-tight ducts behind fryer, griddle, and charbroiler hoods, where the International Mechanical Code calls for 16-gauge carbon steel or 18-gauge stainless.

Our team cleans around welds and any fire wrap it finds, and it notes damaged seams in writing instead of guessing. Good duct steel outlasts plenty of kitchen equipment, so gentle, thorough cleaning pays off for years. Take it from us, cracked wrap is far cheaper to fix early.

NFPA 96 Grease Duct Cleaning

NFPA 96 grease duct cleaning follows the National Fire Protection Association rulebook for commercial cooking exhaust, which asks trained, qualified people to clean and report on every duct system.

Mesa Hood & Exhaust Co. writes up anything our technicians can't reach and says why, so your inspector never has to wonder. That paper trail also tells you which access panels need repair before the next visit.

Food Truck Grease Duct Cleaning

Food truck grease duct cleaning comes to your commissary or event lot, since nobody wants their truck sitting in a shop during festival season.

Our crew packs portable pressure washers, catch mats, and hand tools sized for narrow trailer stacks. Short ducts fill fast when fryers run beside propane, and clean ones help your truck pass Maricopa County Environmental Services checks.

Five-Stage Commercial Grease Duct Cleaning Process for Mesa, AZ Kitchens

Step 1: Scope With a Camera

Our technicians open access panels and run a borescope through each duct section, recording grease depth and blockages before any cleaning begins.

Step 2: Seal and Protect

Crews lock out the exhaust fan, drape plastic over hood openings and floors, and set catch basins beneath every access panel to hold loosened grease.

Step 3: Scrape and Brush

Our experts break up thick deposits with hand scrapers and rotary brushes, working from the highest point downward so debris drops toward the collection points.

Step 4: Wash and Recover

Hot-water pressure washing rinses loosened residue from the steel, then vacuums and absorbent pads recover runoff for sealed containers and approved disposal.

Step 5: Verify and Reseal

Our technicians re-scope every section, reseal access panels with gaskets and dated tags, and deliver before and after footage with a written report.

Commercial Grease Duct Cleaning Pricing in Mesa, AZ

Grease duct pricing follows the duct. Riser height, run length, and roof reach decide how many hours our crew spends inside your system.

Angi reports that professional kitchen hood cleaning, which covers ductwork and exhaust fans, costs $200 to $1,500 per session nationally, with $450 as the average. Tall risers and years of baked-on grease push you toward the top of that range, while regular service pulls you toward the bottom.
