Madera is surrounded by almond orchards, vineyards and open farmland, and harvest season puts more dust in the air than almost anywhere else in the Valley. It settles into rooftop fan housings and cakes onto blades with grease vapor into a hard shell. Summer runs long and hot, keeping grease soft and climbing the duct, and winter fog leaves roofs damp for weeks at a time. Madera’s kitchens are largely older single-story buildings along Yosemite Avenue and Gateway Drive, where duct chases are long and access panels are few, plus a smaller set of newer pads near the Highway 99 interchange with short runs and simple roofs.
Madera’s restaurant market is small, independent and closely held. Downtown along Yosemite Avenue, the Gateway Drive corridor, the Highway 99 travel stops and their attached kitchens, the winery tasting-room kitchens out toward Avenue 12, campus dining at Madera Community College, the hospital kitchen at Adventist Health Madera, and the school kitchens of Madera Unified.
A Madera hood cleaning covers the entire system, with the rooftop unit taking the bulk of the labor. We remove the access panels, foam, brush and rinse the hood interior and plenum, clean the duct along its length, and lift the fan to clean the housing, blades and the curb underneath. Orchard dust bonded to grease forms a shell on the blades that no rinse will lift, so it is brushed off, and belt tension, bearing play and airflow are noted in the report every visit. Where an older Yosemite Avenue chase has no way into the middle of the run, we quote the panel or hinge kit rather than reporting a length of duct as clean when nobody could reach it. Photographs of every accessible surface come back dated, alongside a report that names what was cleaned and anything the system would not let us reach.
Madera kitchens tend to switch after harvest, when the fan has taken a season of orchard dust and the last cleaning did nothing about it.

The shell on the blades is brushed away rather than rinsed over, and missing access panels on an older Yosemite Avenue chase are quoted instead of reported as clean duct.
A written NFPA 96 inspection report, a certificate, and dated photographs, sealed in EvidLY the day the work is done.
PECT Designated Technicians perform the service; the founder carries the CECS (#200452) and has been retained as an NFPA 96 expert witness.
For a commercial kitchen inside Madera city limits, the Madera Fire Department — operated in partnership between the City and Madera County — is your authority having jurisdiction, and your exhaust has to meet NFPA 96. (Kitchens in the unincorporated county and the foothills fall under Madera County Fire / CAL FIRE.) We clean to the standard and hand you the record before anyone asks.
Tell us the hours nothing is cooking. Madera is a short run from our base, so a job here does not have to wait for a route to reach town.
The technician photographs the hood, the chase and the rooftop unit before anything starts, checks access points, blade loading and belt condition, and confirms the interval your cooking calls for.
Plenum and canopy, then the run itself, and last the fan housing, blades and curb. The shell on the blades is brushed away, not rinsed and left in place.
Dated photographs, a written NFPA 96 inspection report, and a certificate, sealed on the day of service and available intact whenever it is called for.

Cleaning Pros Plus works this county regularly as part of our work across the Valley. The company holds IKECA membership, the technicians are PECT Designated, and the founder holds the CECS and has been retained as an NFPA 96 expert witness. Madera reports and certificates are sealed in EvidLY the day the work is finished, so what you hand over months later is the document itself and not a reconstruction of it.
If your fire inspector finds any issue with our work, we come back and re-clean at no charge. No questions asked. We stand behind every hood, every duct, every fan — because your compliance is our reputation.
