  1. Kitchen Exhaust Duct Cleaning – Eliminate the Potential Fire Risk Today One of the key occupational health and safety risks facing the commercial and hospitality industry today, is eliminating the potential risk associated with flammable substances such as cooking fats, grease and oil sitting in filters, drip pans, exhaust plenums and ductwork, which in simple terms is a fire just waiting to happen. The impact on the indoor environment due to neglect can be catastrophic for building and business owners; however these hazards can be addressed and successfully managed by ensuring grease filters, drip pans, exhaust plenums and ductwork and fans are cleaned and maintained on a routine maintenance cleaning program. Establishing a routine kitchen exhaust duct cleaning management program is the most effective way to ensure your kitchen exhaust system/s aren’tbeing compromised and your business doesn’t end up in ashes due to inadequate cleaning or lack of cleaning. The grease filters, hoods and exhaust plenums in particular need to be placed on a more regular cleaning regime,as opposed to the cleaning of the exhaust ductwork and fans. This in turn minimises how much oily reside actually bypasses the filtration system and accumulates in the ducted exhaust system. In stating this exhaust ductwork and fans will still need to be inspected and cleaned annually as required, in line with the industry standard. It is worth noting that compliance and confirmation of kitchen exhaust duct cleaning is essential, as insurers will not pay a claim if the duct system was found to be the cause of the fire spreading, especially if it can be demonstrated that the system hasn’t been cleaned in accordance with their policy conditions or warranties. Industry kitchen exhaust duct cleaning specialists (such as Aeration Filtration Duct Cleaning Services Melbourne) offer cost effective cleaning solutions and tailor-made service agreements to meet your building insuranceobligationswhilst also providing compliance signoff in accordance with *Australian Standards 1851-2012 – Routine Servicing of Fire Protection Systems and Equipment.
