About Our Service
Core Hood Cleaning serves commercial kitchens throughout Vista, one of North County's most active dining and brewing communities. Vista's downtown Eucalyptus Avenue corridor has become a destination for craft breweries, taprooms, and restaurants that draw traffic from across the region. Shadowridge and the surrounding commercial areas add significant volume from neighborhood restaurants, chain operations, and commercial kitchens. We provide full-system NFPA 96 cleaning from hood canopy to rooftop fan on every visit, with complete photo documentation and compliance certificates on every job.
Vista's growing brewery and restaurant scene operates in a mix of older downtown buildings and newer commercial developments, each presenting different cleaning challenges. San Diego County Health and Vista Fire both actively inspect commercial kitchens. We run regular routes through Vista and North County and can service your kitchen on a consistent schedule. Same-day emergency response is available for red tag situations.
What's Included
NFPA 96 sets how often your exhaust system must be inspected and cleaned based on what you cook: monthly for solid-fuel cooking, quarterly for high-volume cooking like charbroiling and wok, semi-annually for moderate volume, and annually for low volume. Vista's taprooms and restaurants with long hours and heavy fryer and grill use often fall in the quarterly or more frequent range.
After every service you get a compliance certificate, before and after photos of the full system, and a written report to hand to a fire inspector, health inspector or insurance carrier. In older Eucalyptus Avenue buildings, where ductwork is hard to see, that photo record matters most.
