How does hood cleaning compliance work with Arlington County Fire Marshal's Office?
Arlington County enforces the Virginia Statewide Fire Prevention Code and NFPA 96 / NFPA 17A / NFPA 10. The County Fire Marshal's Office reviews kitchen suppression plans and conducts annual inspections — restaurant openings in Clarendon and National Landing trigger full plan review. Class K extinguisher placement is rigorously enforced.
How often does my kitchen need hood cleaning?
NFPA 96 frequency depends on cooking volume. High-volume kitchens (24-hour, charbroil, wok-heavy) typically need monthly service. Standard commercial kitchens are quarterly. Lower-volume operations can run semi-annual or custom. We assess your operation on the first visit and recommend a schedule.
What does NFPA 96 compliant actually mean for cleaning?
NFPA 96 requires the entire exhaust system — hood, ducts, fan, accessible components — be cleaned to bare metal where reachable. Many cleaners only do the hood and filters. We clean the full system, document it, and provide the certificate your inspector wants to see.
Do you provide before/after photos?
Yes — every job. Photos are uploaded to your customer record and included in the cleaning certificate. If your AHJ wants documentation, we can submit it directly.
Do you handle Arlington County Fire Marshal inspections?
Yes. We coordinate directly with the Arlington County Fire Marshal's Office. Every job ships with a properly-formatted NFPA 96 cleaning certificate, semi-annual NFPA 17A suppression tag, or NFPA 10 extinguisher tag — exactly the documentation Arlington inspectors expect.
How fast can Skyline reach an Arlington restaurant for emergency service?
