Clovis kitchens deal with the same Valley heat as Fresno, plus something Fresno’s core does not have: the town sits at the edge of the agricultural belt and the foothills, and the air carries orchard dust and, for weeks each year, wildfire particulate off the Sierra. That grit binds to grease vapor and hardens on fan blades and duct walls into a deposit that does not wash off the way ordinary grease does. Summer heat past 100 degrees keeps the underlying grease mobile while the crust builds on top of it. Old Town’s older single-story buildings and the newer Herndon and Shaw pads present very different roofs, and the deposit behaves the same on both.
Clovis runs a restaurant market distinct from Fresno’s rather than an extension of it. Old Town Clovis along Pollasky and Fifth, the Herndon and Clovis Avenue corridors, the Shaw Avenue retail strip, campus dining at Clovis Community College, the hospital kitchens at Clovis Community Medical Center, and the school kitchens of Clovis Unified.
A Clovis hood cleaning covers the entire system, and it accounts for what the local air puts into it. We pull the access panels along the duct, foam, brush and rinse the hood interior and plenum, clean the run to the roof, and lift the rooftop fan to clean the housing, the blades and the curb. Where orchard dust and grease have baked into a crust on the blades, that gets brushed rather than rinsed, because a rinse leaves it and the imbalance it causes shortens the motor’s life. Belt and bearing condition go in the report every time. You receive dated photographs of every accessible surface and a report naming what was cleaned and anything that could not be reached.
Clovis kitchens generally switch after the fan starts failing. Orchard dust and grease bake into a crust the last cleaner rinsed instead of brushed, the wheel goes out of balance, and it takes the bearings and then the motor.

Baked-on orchard dust comes off the blades by brushing, and blade loading and belt condition go into the report every visit.

For a commercial kitchen inside Clovis city limits, the Clovis Fire Department’s Fire Prevention Division (part of its Life Safety and Enforcement Bureau) is your authority having jurisdiction — it handles plan review and business inspections, and your exhaust system has to meet NFPA 96. (Kitchens in the surrounding unincorporated area fall under the Fresno County Fire Protection District or CAL FIRE.)
We clean to the standard and hand you the record before anyone asks.
Every commercial kitchen in Clovis must comply with NFPA 96. Your fire authority — Clovis Fire Department — enforces these cleaning frequency requirements:
| Type of Cooking | Cleaning Frequency |
|---|---|
| Solid fuel cooking operations (wood, charcoal, mesquite) | Monthly |
| High-volume cooking (24-hour operations, charbroiling, wok cooking) | Quarterly |
| Moderate-volume cooking (full-service restaurants) | Semi-Annually |
| Low-volume cooking (churches, day camps, senior centers, seasonal) | Annually |
Not sure which category your Clovis kitchen falls into? We'll assess your operation and recommend the right schedule.
Tell us when the equipment is cold. Old Town kitchens with late weekend service usually take an overnight slot; the Herndon and Shaw pads generally suit an early morning.
The technician photographs the hood, the run and the rooftop unit first, checks panel condition, blade loading and belt wear, and confirms the interval your cooking calls for.
