About Kingston Hood Cleaning
Kingston Hood Cleaning is the local brand that books commercial kitchen exhaust cleaning for Kingston, Loyalist Township, the Frontenac townships and the Thousand Islands shore. Power Hoods Systems is the operating crew that performs the walk-throughs and the cleaning visits. You call one number, 343-453-2343, and you deal with one crew from the first visit to the last. Each visit ends with one signed certificate that names each section cleaned and references the published NFPA 96 standard. Before-and-after photographs of every cleaned surface come with it.
How Kingston Hood Cleaning works
A local name on the phone, a single operating crew on the roof.
Kingston Hood Cleaning is the name you find when you search for a hood cleaner in the city. It answers the phone, takes the quote requests and keeps the schedule. Power Hoods Systems is the company that sends the crew. The crew that walks through your kitchen is the crew that comes back to clean it. A call and a form submission land in the same schedule.
Every job starts with a free walk-through. The crew looks at the hood, the path to the roof and the fan before anyone names a price. Your written quote comes back within 24 hours. Visits run overnight or between services, so the line keeps cooking on its normal hours.
The commercial cleaning services page describes the work itself.
The documentation standard
Three documents, on every job, whatever the size of the kitchen.
Proof of WSIB coverage and liability insurance before work starts. You receive it with the quote. A property manager or a facilities office can file it before the date is booked.
Before-and-after photographs of every cleaned surface. The pairs show the inside of the system as the crew found it and as the crew left it.
A signed health and safety certificate. It names each section cleaned and references the published NFPA 96 standard. Kingston Hood Cleaning is not affiliated with NFPA. The NFPA 96 guide explains the standard and the certificate in full.
What you can expect from a visit
Before the night. The date is set around your service hours. The terms of service list the site access the crew needs.
On the night. The crew arrives after close or in the gap between services. They cover the cook line, do the work named on the quote and leave the kitchen ready for the morning shift.
After the visit. The certificate and the photographs come to you. You file them for the fire inspection, the insurer, the landlord or head office. The invoice matches the written quote.
One number, one crew, one certificate
The promise exists because a hood system has more than one reader. A fire prevention officer from Kingston Fire and Rescue checks the file. An insurer asks for the certificate at renewal. A franchise head office wants it filed centrally. A landlord wants to know the tenant's system was done.
Each of those readers gets the same certificate from the same crew, whatever the kitchen type. Who we serve covers what each type needs from the paperwork. You never piece together a job from three subcontractors and three sets of notes.
Why a lake-and-river city needs a route plan
Kingston sits where Lake Ontario becomes the St. Lawrence River, at the mouth of the Cataraqui River and the foot of the Rideau Canal. Water shapes every route out of the city. A kitchen on Wolfe Island depends on the ferry from the downtown waterfront. A kitchen in Bath is a run west on the Loyalist Parkway. Sharbot Lake is up Highway 38. Gananoque and Brockville are east along Highway 2 and the Thousand Islands Parkway.
A route plan groups kitchens on the same road into the same night. Winter tightens the plan. The ferry runs a winter schedule in January, and a rooftop fan can freeze to its curb in February. Both get checked before the crew leaves.
The full coverage list, road by road, is on the areas served page.
