Inspection of exhaust and air ducts
Want to have your building’s exhaust ducts or air ducts cleaned? Dolmans carries out inspections in building air ducts and exhaust ducts of commercial kitchens. Most fire insurers recommend having exhaust ducts cleaned at least once a year. An inspection is necessary to properly clean a duct. This is because it allows us to prepare a tailor-made quotation and take appropriate measures in preparation for our work.
Checking grease ducts
To clean an extraction duct or grease duct, our specialists first make a small inspection hatch in the duct. We check whether there is any caked-on grease in the duct. This can vary from place to place, as a duct usually travels both horizontal and vertical routes. Once the inspection is complete, we prepare an advisory report and work out a customised quote. If required, we also carry out duct cleaning.
Why Dolmans for duct inspection?
- With our regular customers, we come over once a year on average to inspect the grease ducts. When it is time for a new inspection, you will automatically receive a notification. So you don't have to take this into account yourself.
- We only start cleaning work once we have inspected the current state of the ducts. This way, we avoid unnecessary work and costs for both parties.
- During an inspection, we look at the condition of the exhaust duct at different locations along the drain path. For example, closer to a kitchen, you are more likely to find more deposits than where a duct ends.
- We are flexible and cause as little inconvenience as possible. This includes carrying out our work outside your opening hours so that you do not have to take this into account when receiving guests.
