Frequently Asked Questions

Illinois has adopted NFPA 96 (the National Fire Protection Association standard governing commercial kitchen exhaust systems) as the governing standard for commercial kitchen hood cleaning. The state fire marshal enforces compliance through regular inspections of food service establishments. Restaurants must maintain documented cleaning schedules, and insurance companies typically require proof of NFPA 96 compliance. Non-compliant businesses face fines, higher insurance premiums, and potential closure orders. See our NFPA 96 Compliance Guide for details.

The Illinois fire marshal conducts inspections of commercial kitchens to verify NFPA 96 compliance. Inspectors check hood and duct cleaning documentation, grease containment systems, fire suppression equipment, and cleaning frequency records.

Browse certified hood cleaning companies to stay compliant.

There are currently 46 hood cleaning companies listed across 6 cities in Illinois. Our directory is comprehensive and regularly updated to include new companies and verify existing listings. Browse all hood cleaning companies or filter by city, certification, and services.

Hood cleaning companies in Illinois should ideally hold IKECA (International Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning Association) certification, which demonstrates expertise in exhaust system cleaning per NFPA 96 standards. Additional credentials to look for include state contractor licensing where required, general liability insurance, and workers compensation coverage. Learn more about choosing a qualified cleaner in our IKECA Certification Guide.

NFPA 96 establishes cleaning frequencies based on cooking volume. High-volume operations like 24-hour restaurants and solid fuel cooking systems require monthly cleaning. Moderate-volume kitchens need quarterly service. Low-volume establishments should schedule semi-annual cleaning, and seasonal operations require annual service at minimum. These standards apply across all of Illinois. See our Hood Cleaning Frequency Guide for complete schedules.
