What our clients are saying

Who are Clean Air Filtration?

FAQs

HVAC Cleaning

Although Australian Standard AS 3666.2 details that HVAC ducts & coils should be inspected monthly, in practice this is not always necessary. A professional  HVAC cleaning company like Clean Air Filtration Services will be able to advise you on how frequent your HVAC ducts should be inspected in order to comply with the standard.

The relevant standard, AS 3666.2 specifies that ducts and coils are cleaned \’when necessary\’. In practice, for most systems, this would be once per year at least.

Commercial Kitchen Canopy & Exhaust Cleaning

Australian Standard AS181 states that canopies and exhausts should be cleaned at least once every 12 months.

However, best practice is very often a lot higher than that. It will depend on the fuel (solid / non-solid), the food cooked and the cooking frequency.

A better way to define the frequency is that the canopy and exhaust system should be cleaned when the grease build-up exceeds 0.2 mm on average across the system or if the grease build-up exceeds 2 mm in any one spot.

The primary reason to clean your Commercial Kitchen Canopy and Exhaust is to prevent a kitchen fire. However, fire is just one reason to clean your system. Here are 5 more reasons:

  1. Compliance – If you are found not to be compliant with AS 1852 you will be fined
  2. Unpleasant odours – A grease-ridden exhaust and duct system can result in mould and bacteria growth. Mould and bacteria growth can produce an unpleasant odour.
  3. Pests – Grease and mould can be a source for pests including rats and mice.
  4. Health Hazard – Grease, bacteria, and mould around food preparation is a health hazard and can cause sickness.
  5. Increased Equipment Efficiency – Removing grease from the canopy, fans and ducts ensures the longevity of the kitchen equipment and reduces the likelihood of sudden breakdowns. It helps to keep the kitchen running smoothly and efficiently.
