Restaurant Exhaust Fan Cleaning and Repair

The exhaust fan does the work of pulling smoke and grease off your cook line, and it is the part most often neglected. We clean, service and repair rooftop and in-line commercial kitchen exhaust fans throughout metro Atlanta.

Fan cleaning and service

  • Fan removed or hinged back, housing and blades degreased to bare metal
  • Blades checked for imbalance and grease loading that kills airflow
  • Belts inspected and replaced, pulleys aligned, bearings greased
  • Motor amperage and rotation verified
  • Hinge kits and restraining cables installed where missing
  • Rooftop grease box or absorbent pads replaced to protect the roof membrane

Signs your fan needs attention

Smoke lingering on the line, a rattling or squealing roof unit, grease staining the roof around the curb, or a hood that no longer draws a napkin flat against a filter are all reasons to have the fan serviced before the next scheduled cleaning.

Repairs, not just cleaning

We carry common belts and hardware on the truck, so most repairs happen during the same visit rather than becoming a second service call.

Frequently asked questions

Do you replace exhaust fan belts?
Yes. Belts are inspected on every cleaning and replaced on the spot when worn, with the change noted in your service report.
Can you fix a fan that stopped working?
We diagnose belts, bearings, pulleys, wiring faults and seized motors, and we will tell you plainly when a replacement fan is the better spend.
Do you protect the roof from grease?
Yes. Every visit includes fresh grease containment at the curb, which keeps grease off the membrane and out of your landlord's complaints.

Ready to schedule?

We clean after hours, document everything with photos, and leave your kitchen inspection-ready.
