A complete proposal should identify
Every kitchen is different. The proposal should name each system and state what is included, excluded and inaccessible.
- Canopy, filters and plenum
- Accessible horizontal and vertical duct
- Rooftop or wall-mounted exhaust fan
- Kitchen and roof protection
- Cleanup, service label and photo report
Schedule around operations
Night and early-morning service is common, but the line must be cool and available. Confirm alarm access, roof access, reopening time and who will verify completion.
Keep correction work separate
Cleaning teams may document loose wiring, damaged hinges, missing access panels or suppression concerns. Those conditions can require other qualified trades.
Questions about commercial hood-to-fan cleaning
Can a kitchen operate during cleaning?
Normally no. The affected line should be shut down, cool and clear enough for safe protection and access.
Are baffle filters included?
They often are, but filter cleaning or replacement should be explicit in the written scope.
