The presence of ventilation systems is becoming a necessity in modern households, production areas, restaurants, etc. The system helps to quickly clean the air from foreign aromas and unpleasant odors. But ventilation systems are very susceptible to clogging, as droplets of fat, soot, dust and other contaminants penetrate into them during operation. If you do not carry out air duct cleaning, you will face problems with the appearance of mold and dangerous microorganisms on the dusted fat in the hood. Microorganisms quickly multiply in such an environment and cause unpleasant odors. In addition, dust and dirt settle on the fat film, which leads to a high risk of fire. And, of course, this reduces the service life of the equipment and significantly reduces the quality of its work. To avoid such problems, cleaning the ventilation from fat should be carried out regularly and efficiently.

How to clean ventilation from grease
It is recommended to entrust the ventilation cleaning procedure to professionals vent cleaning services, who have all the necessary skills, knowledge, tools and means. The cost of such work depends on various factors and is determined individually. For example, in one case, you can clean the ventilation by flushing the system with water and degreasing household products, and in another, you need to use special chemicals. Independently carrying out this procedure will be difficult, since to determine the level of contamination of the system, you will need to use expensive equipment and professional chemical compounds. Cleaning ventilation from grease and dirt should be carried out 1-2 times a year for private houses and apartments, and in kitchens of public institutions at least 2 times a month. To minimize the amount of fat particles that penetrate the ventilation, the system is equipped with special grease filters for ventilation systems.  

Features of the use of a special chemical agent
A chemical degreaser is an effective means of removing fatty deposits in the ventilation system. It is a concentrate that should be diluted with water in a ratio of 1:5-1:7 before use. The proportion may vary depending on the type of surface, conditions of use and amount of contamination. The main advantages of chemical degreasers include:

- accuracy and gentleness of impact on rubber, metal and plastic;
- contains adhesion additives that make it possible to avoid additional preparation before permanent painting and powder coating;
- high level of efficiency;
- economical consumption due to high concentration;
- biodegradability without harming the environment;
- versatility of application,
- safety;
- ease of use;
- absence of chlorine, acids and alternative harmful impurities;
- absence of a strong smell.

Safety precautions when handling chemicals
If you clean structures with chemicals, you will need rubber gloves to protect your skin from chemicals, a respirator to protect your respiratory system, and special glasses to prevent the product from getting into your eyes. If this happens, rinse the affected area with water as soon as possible and consult a doctor.
