Hood cleaning companies in Maine 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 distinguishes inspection from cleaning. Its exhaust-system inspection table lists solid-fuel cooking monthly, high-volume operations such as 24-hour cooking, charbroiling or wok cooking quarterly, moderate-volume operations semi-annually, and low-volume operations such as churches, seasonal businesses and day camps annually. Clean contaminated portions when inspection finds grease deposits. Confirm the adopted edition and any additional requirements with your local authority having jurisdiction. See the inspection and cleaning frequency guide.
