Dallas commercial kitchen hood cleaning
Research index for operators. Public rules we found, how to vet a cleaner, open listing slots. Not a ranked vendor list.
Thin on intervals: No public fixed brick-and-mortar grease-cleaning interval table was found for Dallas restaurants; confirm with Dallas Fire-Rescue / Building Inspection. Do not invent intervals.
What operators usually get asked
- Dallas IMC amendment materials reference NFPA 96 (Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations).
- Food establishment plan guidelines: vented hoods with removable filters required over cooking surfaces under mechanical/plumbing codes.
- Building Inspection lists Commercial Kitchen Exhaust/Grease Duct Rough among commercial mechanical inspections. Fire Protection plan review (Oak Cliff Municipal Center) is listed at 214-948-4602 — verify current before dialing.
- No useful public page stating a Dallas-only grease-cleaning cadence or licensed hood-cleaner roster (beyond adopted IFC/IMC/NFPA 96) was clearly found. Confirm with Dallas Fire-Rescue / Building Inspection. Suppression install/permit rules are a separate track from grease cleaning.
Vet checklist
- Certs your AHJ accepts (IKECA or local equivalent) — ask, then verify
- Certificate of insurance before they arrive
- Photo report: plenum, ducts, rooftop fan — not only the canopy
- Full-system vs canopy wipe in writing
- After-hours and roof access confirmed before the crew shows up
