How it works

Your kitchen exhaust system, in one picture

Smoke and grease rise from the cooking line into the hood, pass through the filters, travel up the duct and leave through the fan. Some kitchens also have an ESP or ecology unit in the path. HoodEx cleans that whole path, and the highlighted part is what this page covers.

Exhaust Filter Cleaning across Abu Dhabi

In a busy Abu Dhabi kitchen, baffle and mesh filters take the first load of grease every day. Your staff can wash them between visits, but filters left too long end up baked with grease, and that is when we remove, soak, degrease and inspect them, and tell you if any should be replaced.

Our exhaust filter cleaning team covers Abu Dhabi island, Al Reem and Yas Island, Khalifa City, Musaffah and ICAD, and we arrange the visit around your opening hours.

In Abu Dhabi, landlords, mall operators, insurers and food safety inspectors often ask for proof that the kitchen exhaust has been cleaned. Every HoodEx job ends with a cleaning certificate and a photo report you can show them.

How we do it

Filters are taken out, soaked and degreased, then checked before being refitted. The right product depends on the material: stainless steel baffle filters tolerate hot alkaline degreasers, while aluminium mesh filters need a milder cleaner because strong caustic products attack aluminium.
