Every service is documented with before and after pictures to ensure your complete satisfaction (video can be provided). National Guardian ensures security while our teams are on premises.

Hood Filter Cleaning

The best way for a restaurant owner or manager to maintain their kitchen exhaust system is to clean their hood filters daily. A filter that is clogged with grease is the number one cause for accidently flue fires. It also does not allow your system to "breath" properly and can cause premature failure of your exhaust fan motors, smoke in your restaurant, and an imbalance to your indoor air system.

In addition to an already established filter maintenance program, National Guardian will clean your filters on-site, as well as measure, order, and install new filters for your exhaust system when needed.

Rooftop Grease Containment Systems

National Guardian prides itself on having the cleanest and best rooftop grease containment systems in the business. Exhaust fans are known to blow excess grease onto the roofs, which voids the warranties and creates a major fire hazard. When preexisting grease is found on the rooftop, we can develop a complete solution to meet your individual needs.

Hinge Kits

The NFPA Standard-96 requires each exhaust fan to be hinged and have flexible weatherproof electrical cable. Hinging of the exhaust fan is not only required by code, but it also helps to increase the life of the fan as well as promote safety when cleaning and inspecting. If the fan is not hinged, proper cleaning and inspection becomes difficult and may result in premature damage to the fan bowl, motor housing, and possibly the roof of your facility. National Guardian can install improved exhaust fan hinge kits to fit your needs at very competitive prices.

Access Panels

NFPA Standard-96 requires that a 3" x 5" (or 4" circular) fan access panel be installed on the curvature of the exhaust fan bowl, allowing for all areas of the fan to be thoroughly inspected and cleaned. Fan access panels allow for our teams to clean the backside of the fan blades, which are not normally accessible. Not having a fan access panel can cause grease build-up on the blades resulting in the fan being off balance, leading to fan vibration or rattling. Over time this can cause premature wear on the bearings and belt and can degrade the effectiveness of the exhaust fans' life. We install access panels to the exhaust ducts where needed to properly clean the entire exhaust system.
