What is included
Kitchen hood cleaning and exhaust degreasing for restaurants, hotels, cafes and villa kitchens, from the canopy and filters through the duct to the fan. Grease that gets past the filters settles inside the duct and on the fan, where it restricts extraction and becomes a fire risk. We degrease the full exhaust path, not only the visible canopy, work around your service hours and hand over dated photographs. Any landlord, insurer or authority requirement for cleaning records is checked at the site visit.
- Baffle filters removed to expose the plenum chamber
- Fire suppression nozzles covered and left untouched
- Plenum walls and duct collar scraped, then foam degreased
- Light fittings isolated and their covers cleaned separately
How we carry out hood canopy and plenum cleaning
The plenum is the box behind the filter bank where air gathers before it enters the duct. Out of sight, it is often missed. We remove the filters, isolate the canopy lights and cap any suppression nozzles with covers. Deposits on the plenum walls and around the duct collar are scraped into a tray. Foam degreaser is applied by pump sprayer, left to work, agitated with brushes and rinsed with low volume hot water that drains through the grease channel into a container. Surfaces are then dried and photographed.
Grease in the plenum sits a short distance above open flame, and a flare up that passes the filters reaches it first. A loaded plenum also drips back through the filter bank onto the range. Where nozzles for a suppression system are fitted, careless cleaning can knock them out of line or clog their caps, which is why we leave them alone. Long frying and grilling shifts in Dubai kitchens fill this chamber in weeks. The site visit checks filter fit, gaps in the bank and whether the duct collar can be reached by hand.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Site survey and method statement. We walk the premises with your facilities contact, record areas, finishes and access rules, and issue a written method statement and risk assessment.
- Schedule around your operation. Work is planned for early mornings, evenings or overnight so staff, customers and tenants are not disturbed.
- Supervised crews with checklists. A named supervisor runs the same uniformed crew each visit against a room by room checklist.
- Audit and reporting. Each visit is photographed. Retained contracts receive a monthly report covering attendance, audits and any corrective actions.

Questions about hood canopy and plenum cleaning in Al Thanyah First
What does hood canopy and plenum cleaning include?
With the filters out, the canopy interior and the plenum chamber behind them are scraped, foamed with degreaser and rinsed, which clears the first stretch of the exhaust path. The work includes baffle filters removed to expose the plenum chamber; fire suppression nozzles covered and left untouched; plenum walls and duct collar scraped, then foam degreased.
What is the plenum and why does it matter?
It is the chamber between the filters and the duct opening. Vapour slows down there and drops its grease, so the plenum builds up faster than the duct beyond it. Because nobody sees it during service, it is commonly the dirtiest part of a hood.
Do you touch the fire suppression system in the hood?
Never. The nozzles are covered while we clean and uncovered when we finish, and we do not move, test or discharge any part of it. The system belongs to your fire contractor, and anything we notice, such as a missing nozzle cap, is written in the report.
How much does hood canopy and plenum cleaning cost in Al Thanyah First, Dubai?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: floor area and the mix of finishes; visit frequency and working hours. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
