Night-before checklist for hood cleaning

Before we arrive

1. Turn off all cooking equipment under the hood and let it cool. We confirm the stop time when we book.
2. Clear food, pans, utensils and small items off the line and nearby shelves.
3. Cover or put away open food and anything that shouldn't get wet.
4. Make sure the roof can be reached: hatch unlocked, ladder available, or building manager told.
5. Leave a place for the crew to park close to the kitchen door.
6. Arrange access if no one will be on site: key, lockbox or security contact.

Tell us ahead of time

• Your closing time and when prep starts again
• Building rules for after-hours work, noise or roof access
• Any equipment problems, gas pilot lights, or anything fragile near the line

The morning after

Check that the filters are back in place and the hood fan runs normally, and look at the sticker for your next due date. Photos from the visit are sent to you for your records.
