If you run a commercial kitchen, you’ve got enough on your plate already. Staff. Inventory. Service. The last thing you need is to worry about grease buildup turning into a fire hazard, or failing an inspection because your exhaust system isn’t up to code.
That’s where Pacific Coast Kitchen Exhaust comes in. We’re a small, family-owned company based in Los Angeles, and we clean commercial kitchen exhaust systems down to bare metal. No shortcuts. No mess left behind. We follow NFPA 96 standards and give you a certified sticker when we’re done. You’re left with a clean system and peace of mind.
If you’re searching for reliable hood cleaning that Los Angeles restaurants actually trust, you’re in the right place.
This Isn’t Just About Cleanliness. It’s About Safety.
Every time you fire up the grill, grease travels up into your exhaust system. It collects on the fan, the filters, the ductwork, basically everywhere. And that grease is fuel for a fire.
Most kitchen fires start right there: in the hood. You can’t see the buildup from the dining room. But it’s there. And unless it’s cleaned professionally and regularly, it’s a matter of when, not if.
That’s why our job isn’t just to clean. By offering hood cleaning in Los Angeles, we protect your kitchen, your team, and your business from something that’s both preventable and dangerous.
Here’s How We Do It
We show up on time. We bring the right tools. And we clean your system thoroughly, top to bottom, inside and out.
First, we inspect the hood and wrap everything to protect your equipment
Then we apply a professional-grade degreaser to the fan, filters, and hood
We scrape off the tough stuff and let the solution soak
After that, we power wash the system, fans, and filters included
Once the grease is gone, we polish everything with stainless steel cleaner
We clean up every bit of water, plastic, and gear before we go
And finally, we leave you with an NFPA 96 certification sticker for your records
The whole process usually takes about 3 to 4 hours. We’re in, we’re out, and your kitchen is safer and cleaner than it was before.
You Can’t Afford to Skip This
There’s no way around it: exhaust systems need to be cleaned. Not just for safety, but for compliance. Health inspectors will check. Insurance companies will check. And if there’s a fire and you can’t prove your hood was cleaned properly, the consequences can be brutal.
When you hire us, you get a certified hood cleaning service. That means you’re covered, on paper and in practice.
Your equipment also lasts longer when it’s not clogged with grease. Your staff breathes cleaner air. Your kitchen runs cooler. And your reputation stays intact.
We Work When You Don’t
We know how restaurant life works. You’re open late, and downtime costs money. That’s why we offer evening and weekend appointments. We’ll come in after hours, get the job done, and leave your kitchen spotless before your next shift.
Need a last-minute clean before an inspection? Just call. We’ll do what we can to fit you in.
