How does your kitchen exhaust system look? There should be NO grease anywhere in your system after your service company is there to remove the grease (called “hood cleaning”) or do they just “shine the hood” that you can see. Look up the duct under the hood and check your roof top fan unit. They should look like these pictures. If not, call on us and we can visit with you on how General Fire can help - 515.265.3206
